  1DEAR JENSEN® CUSTOMER Selecting  fine  audio  equipment  such  as  the  unit  you've  just  purchased  is  only  the  start  of  your  musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.   Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds  "normal"  can  actually  be  loud  and  harmful  to  your  hearing.  Guard  against  this  by  setting  your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.  To establish a safe level:   Start your volume control at a low setting.   Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.  We Want You Listening For a Lifetime Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and  enjoyment.  Since  hearing  damage  from  loud  noise  is  often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries  Association's  Consumer  Electronics  Group  recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.       Customer's Record: The serial number of this product is found on its bottom. You should note the serial number of this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in identification in the event of theft of loss.
