Radio Shack CD-3445 User Manual

8

You can listen to your CD-3445 by
connecting stereo headphones to the
CD player’s 

 jack or by con-

necting amplified speakers or a home
audio or autosound system to the 

jack using the supplied Y-adapter

cable.

• The CD player’s 

 jack is a

high-level audio output, and its
volume is controlled by the CD
player’s 

 control. Use this

jack with headphones or amplified
speakers that do not have a vol-
ume control.

• The CD player’s 

jack is

a low-level audio output, and its
volume is controlled by the vol-
ume control of the amplified
speakers, home audio system, or
autosound system.

• Your local Radio Shack store car-

ries a variety of headphones and
amplified speakers.

For private listening, plug a pair of ste-
reo headphones with a 

1

/

-inch plug

into the CD player’s 

 jack.

To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.

• Set the volume to the lowest set-

ting before you begin listening.
After you begin listening, adjust
the volume to a comfortable level.

• Do not listen at extremely high

volume levels. Extended high-vol-
ume listening can lead to perma-
nent hearing loss.

• Once you set the volume, do not

increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a
volume level that does not cause
discomfort might still damage your
hearing.
