Acoustic Safety
CAUTION: Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may temporarily or
permanently affect your hearing. The louder the radio volume, the less time is required before your
hearing can be affected. Hearing damage from loud noises is sometimes undetectable at first and can
have a cumulative effect.
To protect your hearing:
●
Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
●
Increase the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
●
Reduce the volume before connecting headset or earpiece.
●
Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
●
When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio speaker directly against your
ear.
●
If you experience hearing discomfort, ringing in your ears, or speeches that are muffled, you should stop
listening to your radio through your headset or earpiece, and have your hearing checked by your doctor.
