S001_EnSelecting 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.Once you have established a comfortable sound level:• Set the dial and leave it there.Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.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. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.DecibelLevel Example  30  Quiet library, soft whispers  40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic  50  Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office  60  Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine  70  Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant  80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock     at two feet.THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS  UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE  90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower  100  Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill  120  Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap  140  Gunshot blast, jet plane  180  Rocket launching padInformation courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.
