If your product operates on batteries

Adhere to the following precautions: 
A.  Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a diff erent battery type, if 

inserted incorrectly, or if all batteries are not replaced at the same time. 

B.  Any battery may leak electrolyte or explode if disposed of in fi re or an attempt 

is made to charge a battery not intended to be recharged. 

C.  Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or 

other personal injury. When discarding batteries, be sure to dispose of them in 
the proper manner, according to your state/provincial and local regulations.

Important battery precautions

•  Any battery may present a risk of fi re, explosion, or chemical burn if abused. 

Do not try to charge a battery that is not intended to be recharged, do not 
incinerate, and do not puncture.

•  Non-rechargeable batteries, such as alkaline batteries, may leak if left in your 

product for a long period of time. Remove the batteries from the product if 
you are not going to use it for a month or more. 

•  If your product uses more than one battery, do not mix types and make sure 

they are inserted correctly. Mixing types or inserting incorrectly may cause 
them to leak. 

•  Discard any leaky or deformed battery immediately. They may cause skin 

burns or other personal injury.

•  Do not expose batteries to excessive heat (for example, by leaving them in 

sunlight or close to fi re).

•  Please help to protect the environment by recycling or disposing of batteries 

according to federal, state, and local regulations.

Headset safety

To use a headset safely, please keep the following in mind:
•  Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against 

continuous extended play.

•  If you experience ringing in your ears, turn down the volume or stop using 

the headset.

•  Do not use a headset while driving a motorized vehicle or riding a bike. It may 

cause a traffi

  c hazard and is illegal in many areas.

•  Even if your headset is an open-air type designed to let you hear outside 

sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that can’t hear sounds around you.
