including inter ference that may cause undesire d operation of thi s device.
–The Bluetooth antenna cannot be removed (or replaced) by user.
–This equipment complies with FCC/ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the ISED
radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed
to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should
be installed and operated keeping t he radiator at least 20 cm or more away from person’s body
(excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).
–This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
–Alteration o r modifications c arried out without appropriate authori zation may invalidate the user’s
right to operate the equipment.
–NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

CAUTION
This product is evaluated in moderate and tropical climate condition under the Audio, video and
WAR NIN G
similar electronic apparatus - Safety requirements, IEC 60065.
The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands
Get the most ou t of your equipment by playing it at a sa fe level—a level that lets the s ound come
through clearl y without annoying blaring or distortion and, most impo rtantly, without affectin g your
sensitive hearing. So und can be deceiving.
Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound, so what sounds “normal”
can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a
safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
▶ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
– Set your volume control at a low setting.
– Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without
distortion.
– Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set the dial and leave it
there.
▶BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:
– Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
– Use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
– Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle; the use of
headphones may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
