SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
SAFETY GUIDELINES
In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Kraken X, we suggest
that you adopt the following guidelines: hould you have trouble operating the
device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and
contact the Razer hotline or go to
support.razer.com for assistance. Do not take
apart the device {doing so will void your warranty} and do not attempt to
operate it under abnormal current loads. Keep the device away from liquid,
humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific temperature
range of 0°C {32°F} to 40°C {104 °F}. Should the temperature exceed this
range, unplug and/or switch off the device in order to let the temperature
stabilize to an optimal level. The device isolates external ambient sounds
even at low volumes, resulting in lowered awareness of your external
surroundings. Please remove the device when engaging in any activity that
requires active awareness of your surroundings. Listening to excessively loud
volume over an extended period of time can damage your hearing. Furthermore,
legislation of certain countries permits only a maximum sound level of 86dB
for 8 hours a day. We therefore recommend that you reduce the volume to a
comfortable level when listening for prolonged periods of time. Please, take
good care of your hearing.
MAINTENANCE AND USE
The Razer Kraken X requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum
condition. Once a month we recommend you unplug the device and clean it using
a soft cloth or cotton swab to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh
cleaning agents.
