damaged.
 The adapter is exposed to rain, liquid, or excessive
moisture.
 The adapter case has become damaged.
 You suspect the adapter needs service or repair.
 You want to clean the adapter.
Avoiding Hearing Damage Permanent hearing
loss may occur if the receiver, earbuds, headphones,
or earpiece are used at high volume. Use only
compatible receivers, earbuds, headphones, or
earpieces with your device. Turn on the audio and
check the volume before inserting anything in your
ear. 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 mued speech, stop listening and have
your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the
less time is required before your hearing could be
aected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect
your hearing:
 Limit the amount of time you use the receiver,
earbuds, headphones, or earpieces at high volume.
Draft
Apple Confidential
 Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy
surroundings.
 Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people
speaking near you.
For information about how to set a maximum
volume limit on iPad, see the iPad User Guide.
Driving and Riding Safely Use of iPad alone or
with headphones (even if used only in one ear)
while driving a vehicle or riding a bicycle is not
recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check
and obey the laws and regulations on the use of
mobile devices like iPad in the areas where you
drive or ride. Be careful and attentive while driving
or riding a bicycle. If you decide to use iPad while
driving, keep in mind the following guidelines:
 Give full attention to driving or riding and to
the road. Using a mobile device while driving or
riding may be distracting. If you nd it disruptive
or distracting while operating any type of vehicle,
riding a bicycle, or performing any activity that
requires your full attention, pull o the road and
park if driving conditions require.
 Do not email, take notes, look up phone
numbers, or perform any other activities that
require your attention while driving. Composing
or reading emails, jotting down a to-do list,
or ipping through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility,
driving safely.
Navigating Safely If your iPad has applications that
provide maps, digital compass headings, directions
or location-based navigation assistance, these
applications should only be used for basic navigation
assistance and should not be relied on to determine
precise locations, proximity, distance, or direction.
Maps, digital compass, directions, and location-based
applications provided by Apple depend on data
collected and services provided by third parties.
These data services are subject to change and may
not be available in all geographic areas, resulting
in maps, digital compass headings, directions, or
location-based information that may be unavailable,
inaccurate, or incomplete.
iPad contains an internal digital compass located in
the upper right corner of iPad. The accuracy of digital
compass headings may be negatively aected by
magnetic or other environmental interference. Never
rely solely on the digital compass for determining
direction. Compare the information provided on iPad
to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to
resolve any discrepancies.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag An air bag
inates with great force. Do not store iPad or any of
its accessories in the area over the air bag or in the
air bag deployment area.
Seizures, Blackouts, and Eyestrain A small
percentage of people may be susceptible to
blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had
one before) when exposed to ashing lights or light
patterns such as when playing games or watching
video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts
or have a family history of such occurrences, you
should consult a physician before playing games
or watching videos on your iPad. Discontinue use
of iPad and consult a physician if you experience
headaches, blackouts, seizures, convulsion, eye
or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary
movement, or disorientation. To reduce risk of
headaches, blackouts, seizures, and eyestrain, avoid
prolonged use, hold iPad some distance from
your eyes, use iPad in a well-lit room, and take
frequent breaks.
Glass Parts The outside cover of the iPad screen
is made of glass. This glass could break if iPad is
dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial
impact. If the glass chips or cracks, do not touch
or attempt to remove the broken glass and stop
using iPad. Glass cracked due to misuse or abuse
is not covered under the warranty. Stop using iPad
until the glass is replaced by Apple or an Apple
Authorized Service Provider.
Choking Hazards iPad contains small parts,
which may present a choking hazard to small
children. Keep iPad and its accessories away from
small children.
Repetitive Motion When you perform repetitive
activities such as typing or playing games on iPad,
you may experience occasional discomfort in your
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of
your body. Take frequent breaks and if you have
discomfort during or after such use, stop use and
see a physician.
Holding iPad You can hold and use iPad in many
dierent ways. It’s important to nd a comfortable
posture when using iPad, and to take frequent
breaks. Use your lap, or a table, case, or dock
accessory, to support iPad during use.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn o iPad
(press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, and then
slide the onscreen slider) when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not charge
iPad and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion or re, resulting
in serious injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, marked clearly. Potential areas
may include: fueling areas (such as gas stations);
below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities; vehicles using liqueed petroleum
gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the
air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain,
Draft
Apple Confidential
dust, or metal powders); and any other area where
you would normally be advised to turn o your
vehicle engine.
Using Connectors and Ports Never force a
connector into a port. Check for obstructions on
the port. If the connector and port don’t join with
reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make
sure that the connector matches the port and that
you have positioned the connector correctly in
relation to the port.
Keeping iPad Within Acceptable
Temperatures Operate iPad in a place where the
temperature is between 0º and 35º C (32º to
95º F). Low- or high-temperature conditions might
temporarily shorten battery life or cause iPad to
temporarily stop working properly. Avoid dramatic
changes in temperature or humidity when using
iPad, as condensation may form on or within iPad.
Store iPad in a place where the temperature is
between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave
iPad in your car, because temperatures in parked cars
can exceed this range.
When you’re using iPad or charging the battery, it
is normal for iPad to get warm. The exterior of iPad
functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat
from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.
Keeping the Outside of iPad Clean Handle your
iPad with care to maintain its appearance. If you are
concerned about scratching or abrasion, you can use
one of the many cases sold separately. To clean iPad,
unplug all cables and turn o iPad (press and hold
the Sleep/Wake button, and then slide the onscreen
slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free
cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t
use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol
sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to
clean iPad. iPad has an oleophobic coating on the
screen; simply wipe iPad’s screen with a soft, lint-free
cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability
of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time
with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an
abrasive material will further diminish its eect and
may scratch your screen.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy iPad
contains radio transmitters and receivers. When on,
iPad sends and receives radio frequency (RF) energy
through its antenna. The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth®
antennas are located behind the Apple logo. iPad
has been tested and meets the SAR exposure
requirements for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth operation.
A cellular antenna is located at the top edge of
iPad Wi-Fi + 3G, opposite the Home button at the
bottom. For optimal mobile device performance
and so that human exposure to RF energy does not
exceed the FCC, IC, and European Union guidelines,
always follow these instructions and precautions:
Orient the device with the cellular antenna (located
under the black edge at the top of the device) away
from your body or other objects.
iPad is designed and manufactured to comply with
the limits for exposure to RF energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States, Industry Canada (IC) of Canada, and
regulating entities of Japan, the European Union,
and other countries. The exposure standard employs
a unit of measurement known as the specic
absorption rate, or SAR. The SAR limit applicable to
iPad set by the FCC is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg),
1.6 W/kg by Industry Canada, and 2.0 W/kg by the
Council of the European Union. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions
specied by these agencies, with iPad transmitting
at its highest certied power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at
the highest certied power level in each frequency
band, the actual SAR level of iPad while in operation
can be well below the maximum value because
iPad adjusts its cellular transmitting power based
in part on orientation and proximity to the wireless
network. In general, the closer you are to a cellular
base station, the lower the cellular transmitting
power level.
iPad has been tested,

operation. When tested at direct body contact, iPad’s
maximum SAR value for each frequency band is
