13 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the charger to
rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing.
14 An apparatus with a three-prong, grounding-type plug is a Class I
apparatus, which needs to be grounded to prevent possible electric
shock. Make sure that you connect this Class I device to a
grounding-type, three-prong outlet.
15 In order to charge your headset correctly, the wall outlet must be in
