Be sure to observe the following guidelines
when using your headphones.
#ꢀ Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable
periods of time.
1 Important
#ꢀ Be careful not to adjust the volume as your
hearing adapts.
#ꢀ Do not turn up the volume so high that
you can’t hear what’s around you.
Safety
#ꢀ You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations. Do not use headphones while
operating a motorized vehicle, cycling,
ꢁꢂꢃꢄꢅꢆꢇꢃꢈꢉꢊꢋꢌꢍꢀꢅꢄꢎꢏꢐꢀꢊꢄꢀꢑꢃꢒꢀꢎꢈꢅꢃꢄꢅꢀꢃꢀꢄꢈꢃꢓ\ꢎꢀ
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler
is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect
device shall remain readily operable.
Hearing safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
#ꢀ Using headphones at a high volume can
impair your hearing.This product can
produce sounds in decibel ranges that may
cause hearing loss for a normal person,
even for exposure less than a minute.The
higher decibel ranges are offered for those
that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.
#ꢀ Sound can be deceiving. Over time your
hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to higher
volumes of sound. So after prolonged
listening, what sounds ‘normal’ can actually
be loud and harmful to your hearing.To
guard against this, set your volume to a safe
level before your hearing adapts and leave
it there.

9 About DAB
About Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)
DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcasting
radio via a network of terrestrial transmitters.
It provides listeners with more choice and
information delivered in crystal clear, crackle-
free sound quality.
–The technology allows the receiver to lock on
ꢄꢇꢀꢄꢖꢅꢀꢁꢄꢈꢇꢋꢌꢅꢁꢄꢀꢁꢊꢌꢋꢃꢕꢀꢊꢄꢀꢎꢃꢋꢀ\ꢋꢉꢏ
– With DAB digital stations there are no
frequencies to remember, and sets are tuned
by station name, so there’s no returning on the
move.
What is a multiplex?
Digital radio operation is made up of a single
block of frequencies called a multiplex. Each
multiplex works within a frequency spectrum,
such as Band III for DAB broadcasts.
DAB BROADCASTERS AND DLS
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex operator)
also provides text and audio data services.
Some programmes are supported by Dynamic
Label Segments (DLS).This is data which you
can read as scrolling text on your DAB radio
display. Some stations transmit the latest news,
travel, and weather, what’s on now and next,
website addresses and phone numbers.
