The following precautions are the kind of boring but important information you
should read to ensure maximum performance and safety when using the QLinkTV.
Although it may seem fairly obvious that standing outside in a lightning storm
wearing an electronic device is not wise, we do have to officially advise you that it’s
not a good idea to do that-- along with these other nuggets of wisdom.

WARNING: Use the QLinkTV only with the supplied AC power adapter. Other types of
power adapters can damage the QLinkTV and cause personal injury.
WARNING: The QLinkTV is able to amplify volume, which can cause hearing loss. To
avoid the risk of hearing loss, instruct each user of proper usage, adjust the volume
to each user’s personal preference and set the volume to ‘low’ when not in use.
WARNING: Do not spill liquid on the QLinkTV or clean it while it is plugged into AC
power. This can cause a short circuit, a fire or electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not push any type of object into the QLinkTV. Contact with dangerous
voltage points can occur, resulting in fire, electrical shock or parts damage.
WARNING: Do not disassemble the QLinkTV. Dangerous voltage or other risks can
occur. Use after incorrect reassembly can lead to electrical shock.
WARNING: Keep the QLinkTV out of reach of small children.
WARNING: The QLinkTV contains a magnet in the body of the unit that could
potentially affect pacemakers. If you wear a pacemaker, please check with your
instrument provider to verify if the QLinkTV will affect your pacemaker.

Cautions
Cautions indicate practices that could harm the QLinkTV or other objects.
CAUTION: Some electronic devices that are not properly shielded will generate
electromagnetic interference (EMI) that may cause buzzing or odd sounds in the QLinkTV
(or any headset, for that matter). Examples of potential EMI-emitting devices include
PCs, automobiles and large screen TVs.
CAUTION: Turn off the QLinkTV in any facility where posted notices instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care facilities might include equipment that is sensitive to
external radio frequency (RF) energy that can cause EMI.
CAUTION: While on board aircraft, turn off the QLinkTV in accordance with airline
regulations and flight crew instructions.
CAUTION: If you use any personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of the
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may
be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
CAUTION: Avoid dropping the QLinkTV.
