On the headphones
Road safety
Do not use headphones while driving,
cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle.
It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas. It can also be potentially
dangerous to play your recorder at high
volume while walking, especially at
pedestrian crossings. You should exercise
extreme caution or discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones at high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous,
loud and extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or
discontinue use.
Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This
will allow you to hear outside sounds and to
be considerate to the people around you.
On the MiniDisc cartridge
Do not break open the shutter.
Do not place the cartridge where it will
be subject to light, extreme
temperatures, moisture or dust.
On cleaning
Clean the recorder casing with a soft
cloth slightly moistened with water or
a mild detergent solution. Do not use
any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzene as it may mar the finish of the
casing.
Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth
to remove dirt.
Dust on the lens may prevent the unit
from operating properly. Be sure to
close the disc compartment lid after
inserting or ejecting an MD.
