Before using this product, carefully read this manual and any manuals for compatible hardware. Keep instructions for future reference.

Safety/Use and Handling

• Observe all warnings, precautions and instructions.
• CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Keep out of the reach of small children.
• Keep the product out of the reach of small children. Small children may swallow small parts, may pull on cables and cause the headset to fall, or may wrap the cables around themselves, which may inflict injury or cause an accident or a malfunction.
• Do not use the headset while cycling, driving or engaged in any other activity where your full attention is required. Doing so may result in an accident.
• This product has magnets which may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators and programmable shunt valves or other medical devices. Do not place this product close to such medical devices or persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using this product if you use such medical devices.
• Stop using the wireless headset immediately if you begin to feel tired or if you experience discomfort or pain in your head while operating the wireless headset. If the condition persists, consult a doctor.
• Avoid prolonged use of the wireless headset. Take a break at about 30-minute intervals.

• Permanent hearing loss may occur if the headset is used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. Over time, increasingly loud audio may start to sound normal but can actually be damaging your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening, and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the sooner your hearing could be affected. To protect your hearing:

• Limit the amount of time you use the headset at high volume.

• Avoid raising the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
  – Lower the volume if you can't hear people speaking near you.

- If you feel that the headset is irritating your skin, stop using it immediately.

- The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat above 60^ (140 °F), or incinerate.

- Do not handle damaged or leaking lithium-ion batteries.

- Observe all signs and instructions that require an electrical device or radio product to be switched off in designated areas, such as gas/refueling stations, hospitals, blasting areas, potentially explosive atmospheres or aircraft.

- Do not insert anything into the headset because this may cause damage to the internal components or cause injury to you.

- When using headsets or headphones in particularly dry air conditions, you may sometimes experience a small and quick (static) shock on your ears. This is a result of static electricity accumulated in the body, and is not a malfunction of your headset or headphones.

- Avoid leaving the headset near speakers while the microphones are on, as this may produce feedback (audio noise).

- Do not expose the headset to high temperatures during operation, transportation, or storage. Do not leave it in direct sunlight for extended periods (such as in a car during summer).

• Do not put heavy objects on the headset.
• Do not allow liquid or small particles to get into the headset.

- Do not throw or drop the headset, or subject it to strong physical shock.

- Do not place any rubber or vinyl materials on the headset exterior for an extended period of time.

- Do not store the headset by hanging it from the headband strap. After a period of time, the strap can stretch and loosen the fit of the headset.

- Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the headset. Do not use solvents or other chemicals. Do not wipe with a chemically treated cleaning cloth.
