and proper operation and to learn how to dispose of your device properly.
Operation and safety
 To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long
periods.
 Using an unapproved or incompatible power adapter, charger, or battery may damage
your device, shorten its lifespan, or cause a fire, explosion, or other hazards.
 Ideal operating temperatures are 0 °C to 35 °C. Ideal storage temperatures are -20 °C
to +45 °C.
 Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm be maintained
between a device and a pacemaker to prevent potential interference with the pacemaker.
If using a pacemaker, hold the device on the side opposite the pacemaker and do not
carry the device in your front pocket.
 Keep the device and the battery away from excessive heat and direct sunlight. Do not
place them on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators.
 Observe local laws and regulations while using the device. To reduce the risk of
accidents, do not use your wireless device while driving.
 While flying in an aircraft or immediately before boarding, only use your device
according to instructions provided. Use of a wireless device in an aircraft may disrupt
wireless networks, present a hazard to aircraft operation, or be illegal.
 To prevent damage to your device's parts or internal circuits, do not use it in dusty,
smoky, damp, or dirty environments or near magnetic fields.
 When charging the device, make sure the power adapter is plugged into a socket near the
devices and is easily accessible.
 Unplug the charger from electrical outlets and the device when not in use.
 Do not use, store or transport the device where flammables or explosives are stored (in a
gas station, oil depot, or chemical plant, for example). Using your device in these
environments increases the risk of explosion or fire.
