• Do not increase the volume after you start listening. Your ears can adapt over time so that high volume sounds normal,
but the high volume could still damage your hearing.
• Do not increase the volume to block outside noise. The combination of outside noise and sound from your headset or
headphones can damage your hearing. Sealed or noise-canceling headphones can reduce outside noise so that you
don't have to turn up the volume.
• If you can't understand someone nearby speaking normally, turn down the volume. Sound that drowns out normal
speech can damage your hearing. Even with sealed or noise-canceling headphones, you should be able to hear nearby
people speak.
• To minimize the potential for hearing damage, keep the volume low enough that you can carry on a conversation with
people nearby.
• Headphones and headsets can attract dangerous objects like staples and paper clips. Always check your headset or
headphones before use.
• Use of a headset or headphones while driving may be prohibited or restricted in your area; check your local laws and
regulations for further information.
Finally, be aware of hearing loss symptoms. It's a good idea to have your hearing checked regularly by an audiologist. Stop
using a headset or headphones with your device and have your hearing checked if:
• You experience any hearing loss symptoms.
• You hear ringing in your ears.
• Your speech sounds muffled, dull, or flat.
WARNING: Personal medical devices
Radio-frequency emissions and magnetic fields from electronic equipment can negatively affect the operation of other
electronic equipment, causing them to malfunction. Although your device is designed, tested, and manufactured to comply
with regulations governing radio frequency emission in countries such as the United States, Canada, the European Union,
and Japan, the wireless transmitters and electrical circuits in the device may cause unintentional interference in other
electronic equipment.
Persons with pacemakers should always take the following precautions:
• The American Heart Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
• If you use your mobile device with a case or holder select one without metallic parts.
• Do not carry your device in a chest pocket.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is occurring immediately turn off your device.
If you use a medical device other than a pacemaker, consult the device manufacturer or your physician for information and
instructions about the use of other electronic devices near your medical device.
NOTICE: Wireless devices aboard aircraft
Before boarding any aircraft or packing a wireless device in luggage that will be checked, remove the batteries from the
wireless device (if removable) or turn the wireless device off (if it has an on/off switch). Listen for the in-flight announcement
that tells you if you are allowed to use your device during a flight. In-flight wireless use is at the discretion of the airline.
