Enter destination information into a navigation device
before

Seizures, Blackouts & Eyestrain
Seizures, Blackouts & Eyestrain
To reduce eyestrain and avoid headaches, it is always a good idea to hold the screen a
comfortable distance from your eyes, use in a well-lit area, and take frequent breaks.
Some people may be susceptible to seizures or blackouts (even if they have never had one
before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns, such as when playing video games,
or watching videos with flashing-light effects.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: seizures,
blackout, convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, or disorientation.
If you or someone in your family has experienced seizures or blackouts, please consult with
your physician before using an application that produces flashing-light effects on your
mobile device.
Caution About High Volume Usage
High Volume
Warning:
Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended periods of time
may affect your hearing. The louder the volume sound level, the less time is
required before your hearing could be affected. To protect your hearing:
•
Limit the amount of time you use headsets or headphones at high volume.
•
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
•
Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
If you experience hearing discomfort, including the sensation of pressure or
fullness in your ears, ringing in your ears, or muffled speech, you should stop listening to the
device through your headset or headphones and have your hearing checked.

Repetitive Motion
Repetitive Motion
When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering finger-written
characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or
other parts of your body. If you continue to have discomfort during or after such use, stop use
and see a physician.
Children
Children
Keep your mobile device and its accessories away from small children.
These

•
A choking hazard may exist for small, detachable parts.
•
Improper use could result in loud sounds, possibly causing hearing injury.
•
Improperly handled batteries could overheat and cause a burn.
Supervise access for older children.
Similar to a computer, if an older child does use your
mobile device, you may want to monitor their access to help prevent:
•
Exposure to inappropriate apps or content.
•
Improper use of apps or content.
•
Loss of data.
Glass Parts
Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could break if the product
