Danger

Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent

hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably to noise induced hearing

loss but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently

intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S. Government's

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified

the following permissible noise level exposures:

According to OSHA, any exposure in the above permissible limits could

result in some hearing loss. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canal or over

the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to

prevent a permanent hearing loss. If exposure in excess of the limits as

put forth above, to insure against potentially harmful exposure to high

sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to

equipment capable of inducing high sound pressure levels, such as this

amplification system, be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in

operation.
