To stop recording, press STOP/UP ARROW USING HEADPHONES For private listening, you can use a pair of stereo headphones (not supplied) with a 1/8-inch plug. Your local Radio Shack store carries a wide selection of stereo headphones. To connect the headphones, insert the headphones' 1/8-inch plug into the PHONES jack. Set VOLUME to MIN. then put on the headphones and adjust VOLUME to a comfortable listening level. NOTE: Connecting the headphones automatically disconnects the built-in speakers. Listening Safely Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended, high-volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss. Follow these guidelines to protect your hearing, especially when you use headphones. Always start by setting the volume to the lowest level possible before you begin listening. Put the headphones on, then gradually increase the volume as necessary. Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over a period of time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your hearing. Traffic Safety Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle. Even though some headphones are designed to let you hear some outside sounds when listening at normal volume levels, they still present a traffic hazard and are illegal in some areas.
