Establish a safe sound level
Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the impression that the volume
has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you may in fact be harmful. To guard against this before
your hearing adapts, set the volume to a low level.
Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and without distortion. Damage to your
hearing is accumulative and is irreversible. Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume
is too loud. Once you have established a comfortable listening level, do not increase the sound level.
Adjusting the Volume
Press the / - button to increase / decrease the volume.
Adjusting the rod antenna
The aerial should be extended to ensure good reception in
FM
radio mode. It may be necessary to
adjust the position of the unit and /or aerial position to achieve the best signal reception.
