Earphones

When a conductive apparatus, such as earphones, is used in close proximity with a CRT television 
or CRT monitor, the latter may emit an electrostatic discharge. The electrostatic discharge can be 
felt as a static shock. While this static shock is usually harmless, it is good practice to avoid close 
contact with CRT devices when using earphones.

Do not listen to audio on your earbuds or headphones at high volume for prolonged periods of time 
as hearing loss may result. For users in the United States, go to 

www.hei.org

 for more 

information.

Do not listen to your audio device at high volume when driving, cycling or crossing the road, 
especially in heavy traffic, or in any other traffic condition where such use will hinder safe travel on 
the roads. We recommend that consumers be extremely cautious when using this device on the 
road.

Avoid Hearing Damage

Permanent hearing loss may occur if the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Wrath Headset is used at high volume. 
Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound 
normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, 
stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before 
your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing.

1. Limit the amount of time you use the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Wrath Wireless Headset at high 
volume.

2. Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.

3. Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

Embedded Battery

Do not attempt to remove the embedded battery.
The product must be disposed of according to local environmental regulations. To replace the 
battery, return your product to your regional support office. For product service information, go to
