Sony DVP-FX820 Manual

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is 

only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how 

you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.  This 

manufacturer and the Consumer Electronics Association® (CEA) want 

you to get the most out of 

your equipment by playing 

it at a safe 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 “normal” can 

actually be loud and harmful 

to your hearing. Guard 

against this by setting your 

equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

Set your volume control at a low setting.

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and 

clearly, without distortion.

•

Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help 

preserve hearing.  

Do not turn up the volume so high 

that you can’t hear what’s around you.

You should use caution or temporarily 

discontinue use in potentially 

hazardous situations. 

Do not use headphones while 

operating a motorized vehicle; 

it may create a traffic hazard and is 

illegal in many areas.
