Main unit / Supplied accessories
• Keep the SD Memory Card and the rechargeable battery out of the reach of children to
prevent them from being swallowed.
• Don't let reflected light hit people.
Lights reflects from this unit’s display like a mirror. It can thus get into the eyes of people who are
operating a vehicle etc. if it is used under direct sunlight or strong light and cause an accident.
Be careful about how you hold the unit.
• Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any other parts that
directly contact your skin.
Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.
•
Leave some slack in the cord of the earphones and the neck lanyard if you wind them around the unit.
Do not:
• disassemble, remodel, drop, or allow the unit to get wet.
• use or store in locations directly exposed to sunlight, a heat vent, or a heating appliance.
• use or store in humid or dusty locations.
• use or store in locations exposed to corrosive gases.
• insert objects other than SD Memory Cards and rechargeable battery.
• use force to open the battery lid.
• use cracked or warped cards.
• short-circuit the power supply terminals of the AC adaptor.
• detach the label on the card or attach other labels or stickers.
Rechargeable battery
• Remove the battery if the unit is not to be used for a long time.
• Carry and store the rechargeable battery in the supplied rechargeable-battery case to
prevent contact with metal objects.
Do not:
• disassemble, short-circuit, or put in a fire or water.
• peel off the cover or use if the cover has been peeled off.
Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage which can damage items the fluid
contacts and may cause a fire.
If electrolyte leaks from the battery, consult your dealer.
Wash thoroughly with water if electrolyte comes in contact with any part of your body.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume
or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may
create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds don't turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
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.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Leave it there.
