Your purchase
of
PIONEER equipment is only the beginning
of
your musical enjoyment. PIONEER and the Consumer Electronics Association
want you to get the most out
of
your equipment
by
using it at a safe sound
level;
a level that lets the sound
come
through clearly 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
"nannal"
can actually
be
loud and hannful to your hearing. Set your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE
your hearing adapts.
To
establish a safe level:
•
Stan
your
volume control
at
a
low
setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly. without distortion.
Once
you bave established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave
it there.
• Talciog a minute to
do
this oow will belp to preserve hearing.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment can provide fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise
is
often undetectable until it is too late,
PIONEER and the Consumer Electronics Association recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. Under constant exposure such as
sustained listening, sound levels above 85 decibels can
be
dangerous without hearing protection. (For reference, a garbage disposal
or
loud shouting at 3
feet away are around 80
decibels;
a food blender or gas lawn mower at 3 feet away are around 90 decibels.)
The
longer your exposure andlor higher the
sound level, the greater the danger
of
permanent hearing damage. Also, playing loud music
or
other sounds in a vehicle can hinder your ability to hear
traffic
or
emergency vehicles.
We
recommend using low volume levels when driving so you can still hear sounds outside your vehicle. PIONEER disclaims
all liability for hearing loss, bodily injury
or
property damage as a result
of
use
or
misuse
of
this product.
'&'CAUTION
To prevent damage to
your
speakers please observe the following caution. At high volume
levels
if
the
music
SOI..Ilds
distorted
or
additional sounds are perceived lower the volume.
This
may
be caused by excessive input
to
the
speakers.
The
sound you are hearing
coukl
be
the speaker cone becoming out
of
control
or
it
may
be the voice coil actually coming into
contact
with
the mal1letic assembly.
Under
these circumstances. it
is
prudent to lower the
volume to
just
below the point where these phenomena occur.
If
your amplifier has a gain
control
it would be advisable
10
lower
this control
$lift-tty
to prevent this from reoccutTing. In
some
cases. if there is an equaNzer
in
tile system, the
bass
control on this unit could
also
be readjusted to prevent this from happening.
If
higher vollKTle
or
soood pressure levels (spl)
than
those
which
the
speaker
can
reproduce
are
desired, it is recommended that additional
speakers
be added to the system.
By
doing
so
it
is possible
to
gain significant increases
in
sound pressure levels.
In
some
cases.
you may double the perceived system output without
any deterioration
in
sound quality. When installing the speakers, or after installation make
sure not to subject the diaphragms to direct shock (for example, dropping sharp-edged
objects onto them)
as
the
speakers
may be damaged. Since this
speaker
is continuously
used being turned
on
full
blast. temperature of the magnetic circuit rises, avoid touching
it
directly
by
hand and placing something near
it
If
it
is
heated,
it
may
cause
a bum,
deformation
of
or damage to peripheral things.
If
this
speaker
is
used
as
it
is mounted on a
cabinet whose volume
is
larger than the recommended size or used alone
in
a free air,
it
will
not only be deteriorated
in
durability but also
be
out
of order
PIONEER
recommends
that
this
speaker
be
used
In
conjunction
with
amplifiers
whose
continuous
(RMS)
output
is
lower
than
the
nominal
input
power
of
this
speaker.
Never
connect
only
one
voice
coil
of
this
Dual
Voice
Coil (DVC)
speaker.
Both
...
oice
coils
must
be
connected
to
the
amplifier
for
correct
operation.
