Sound levels  
Your hearing is very important to you and to us,  
so please take care when using the DAB Radio.  
It is strongly recommended that you follow the

• Do not expose the DAB Radio to rain or

Establish a safe sound level  
Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous  
loud sounds and will give the impression that the  
volume has in fact been reduced. What seems  
normal to you may in fact be harmful. To guard  
against this before your hearing adapts, set  
the volume to a low level.  
Servicing  
The DAB Radio contains no user serviceable  
parts. When servicing, refer to qualified service  
personnel. Call the Grundig Helpline if you are  
ever in doubt about the operation or safety of this  
product.  
Slowly increase the level until you can hear  
comfortably and clearly and without distortion.  
Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is  
irreversible. Any ringing or discomfort in the ears  
indicates that the volume is too loud.  
Once you have established a comfortable listening  
level, do not increase the sound level.
