Battery Safety
The rechargeable battery in your Kindle should be replaced only by an authorized
service provider. For more information about batteries, go to
http://www.amazon.com/kindleterms (U. S. or other countries) or
http://www.amazon.co.uk/kindleterms (U. K. customers). Charge the battery only in
temperatures that range from 32° to 95° Fahrenheit (0° to 35° Celsius).
Headphone Safety
Listening to audio at high volume for extended periods of time can cause hearing
damage. To avoid this problem, consider the tips below:
1.
Keep the volume down.
2.
Avoid prolonged, continuous listening.
3.
Wear headphones that isolate the wanted audio from background noise.
Wireless Safety and Compliance
Turn Amazon Whispernet off in areas where wireless use is forbidden or when it may
cause interference or danger. Some specific situations are described below. In general,
you should not use your Kindle with Whispernet turned on any place you are not
allowed to use a cellular device.
Turn Off Wireless When Flying
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation
Administration regulations and many other aviation agencies require you to have
permission from a crew member to use your device's wireless service. If you have your
wireless service turned off, you can use your Kindle for reading once a crew member
has said it is okay to use electronic devices.
