AVERTISSEMENT PRODUIT AUDIO!

DES VOLUMES PUISSANTS ÉCOUTÉS SUR UNE TROP LONGUE PÉRIODE PEUVENT ENTRAÎNER LA PERTE PERMANENTE DE L’OUÏE. MAINTENEZ LE VOLUME LE PLUS BAS POSSIBLE. Cet appareil peut émettre des tonalités et des volumes sonores très élevés. Dans certains cas, une exposition à ce genre de sons peut endommager irrémédiablement l’ouïe. Le niveau du volume peut varier en fonction des conditions, notamment le téléphone utilisé, sa réception et les réglages, ainsi que l’environnement. Évitez l’utilisation prolongée d’écouteurs avec des niveaux sonores excessifs. Veuillez lire les consignes de sécurité ci-dessous avant d’utiliser cet appareil.

Vous pouvez réduire les dommages sur l’ouïe en respectant les Consignes de sécurité suivantes:

1. Étapes à suivre avant l’utilisation de cet appareil

• Tournez le bouton de volume au niveau le plus bas

• Allumez le casque, le cas échéant

• Réglez progressivement le volume pour qu’il soit agréable à l’oreille.

2. Pendant l’utilisation:

• Maintenez le volume le plus bas possible et évitez d’utiliser l’appareil dans les environnements bruyants. Vous auriez en eet tendance à augmenter le volume.

• Si l’augmentation du volume est nécessaire, réglez-le progressivement.

• Un bourdonnement des oreilles peut indiquer que le volume est trop élevé.

• Dans ce cas, ou si le son est désagréable, n’utilisez plus l’appareil et consultez immédiatement un médecin.

• Si l’écoute est désagréable, l’appareil ne doit plus être utilisé.

L’oreille peut s’habituer aux volumes élevés, ce qui peut avoir pour conséquence d’endommager l’ouïe de manière permanente sans toutefois nuire à votre confort.

INSTRUCTIONS GÉNÉRALES SUR LA SÉCURITÉ

• L’utilisation d’un casque vous empêche d’entendre les sons environnants. Prenez les précautions nécessaires quand l’activité nécessite toute votre attention.

• Si vous portez un stimulateur cardiaque ou tout autre appareil médical électrique, consultez votre médecin avant d’utiliser cet appareil.

• Ce paquet contient de petites pièces qui peuvent représenter un danger pour les enfants; il doit donc être laissé hors de leur portée. Cet appareil n’est pas un jouet – ne laissez jamais un enfant jouer avec. Gardez toujours le produit hors de portée des enfants. Les sacs par euxmêmes, ainsi que les petits éléments qu’ils contiennent, présentent un risque d’étouement s’ils sont avalés.

• N’essayez jamais de démonter vous-même le produit ou d’y insérer des objets, car cela pourrait entraîner des courts-circuits et provoquer un incendie ou une décharge électrique.

• Aucun des composants ne peut être remplacé ou réparé par l’utilisateur. Seuls des distributeurs ou centres de service autorisés sont habilités à ouvrir le produit. Si des éléments de votre produit nécessitent d’être remplacés pour quelque raison que ce soit, y compris l’usure normale et le bris, communiquez avec votre distributeur.

• N’exposez pas le produit à la pluie, à l’humidité ou à d’autres liquides aﬁn d’éviter tout risque de lésion pour vous ou de dommage pour le produit.

• Si le produit a des embouts, ils doivent être contre l’oreille mais pas dans le canal auditif.

• Gardez tous les produits, cordons et câbles à l’écart des machines en marche.

• Respectez tous les panneaux et instructions qui exigent l’arrêt de tout appareil électrique ou produit à radiofréquence dans certaines zones, notamment les hôpitaux, les zones de tir, les

atmosphères potentiellement explosives ou les avions.

• Ne montez jamais ou ne stockez jamais le produit sur la zone de déploiement d’un sac gonﬂable. En se déployant, le sac gonﬂable provoquerait de graves blessures.

• Ne l’utilisez pas dans des zones présentant des risques d’explosion.

• Débranchez l’appareil quand les conditions météorologiques sont extrêmes, ou quand il n’est pas utilisé pendant longtemps.

• Faites en sorte que le cordon ne soit jamais endommagé ou pincé.
