Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the
following.
EARPHONE WARNING!
Be sure to use the supplied 8
Ω
monaural headphone.
Use of an incorrect earphone or stereo headset might be
potentially hazardous to your hearing.
The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will
hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset.
Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from
the speaker before plugging in the monaural earphone or
a stereo headset of the proper impedance (32
Ω
).
Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or
possible hearing damage if the volume suddenly
becomes too loud because of the volume control or
squelch control setting. This might be particularly true of
the type of earphone that is placed in the ear canal.
