Protect Your EarsSound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes ofsound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Set yourequipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.To establish a safer level: Start your volume control at a low setting; Slowly increase thesound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.Once you have established a comfortable sound level: Set the dial and leave itthere; taking a minute to do this now will help to preserve hearing.XM Satellite Radio and the Consumer Electronics Association recommend you avoid pro-longed exposure to excessive noise. Under constant exposure such as sustained listening,sound levels above 85 decibels can be dangerous without hearing protection. (For reference, agarbage disposal or loud shouting at 3 feet away are around 80 decibels; a food blender orgas lawn mower at 3 feet away are around 90 decibels.) The longer your exposure and/orhigher the sound level, the greater the danger of permanent hearing damage. XM SatelliteRadio disclaims all liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of useor misuse of this product.Battery Charger SafetyCaution: Opening the case may result in electric shock.Caution: The uninsulated parts inside the power adapter and dock may cause electric shockor fire.
