for
monitoring the audio signal.

output (PHONES)

Attention! High volume!
Even short exposure to high volume levels will damage your hearing!
Set the volume for the connected headphones to the minimum before
putting the headphones on.
First, set the volume control

to the lowest volume by turning it to the
left as far as possible. Then gradually turn up the volume.
Volume up? – NO!
When people use headphones, they tend to choose a higher volume than
with loudspeakers. Listening at high volume levels for long periods can
lead to permanent hearing defects. Please protect your hearing,
Sennheiser headphones have an excellent sound quality even at low
volumes.
Activating/deactivating the lock mode
Each receiver of the EM 550 G2 has a lock mode that can be activated or
deactivated via the operating menu (see “Activating/deactivating the lock
mode” on page 25). The lock mode prevents that the receiver is accidentally
programmed or switched off during operation.
