Health and Safety

Before using the product, carefully read this manual and any manuals for compatible hardware. Retain instructions for future reference. Parents or guardians of children should read this manual for safe use.

This product has been designed with the highest concern for safety. However, any electrical device, if used improperly, has the potential for causing fire, electrical shock or personal injury. Observe all warnings, precautions and instructions.

WARNING

PHOTOSENSITIVITY/EPILEPSY/SEIZURES

A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to certain light patterns or flashing lights. Exposure to certain patterns or backgrounds on a screen or when playing video games may trigger epileptic seizures or blackouts in these individuals. These conditions may trigger previously undetected epileptic symptoms or seizures in persons who have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. If you, or anyone in your family, has an epileptic condition or has had seizures of any kind, consult your doctor before playing.

IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE USE and consult your doctor before resuming gameplay if you or your child experience any of the following health problems or symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, seizures, or any involuntary movement or convulsion. RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR DOCTOR.

Use and handling of video games to reduce the likelihood of a seizure

Use in a well-lit area and keep the screen a safe distance from your face.
Avoid prolonged use of the product. Take a 15-minute break during each hour of play.
Avoid playing when you are tired or need sleep.

RADIO WAVES

Radio waves may affect electronic equipment or medical devices (for example, pacemakers), which may cause malfunctions and possible injuries.

Keep the product at least 30 cm away from a pacemaker or other medical devices when using the network features.
Turn off the product immediately, if you have any reason to suspect that interference is occurring with your pacemaker.
If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your doctor or the manufacturer of your medical device before using the wireless networking feature (wireless LAN).
Do not use the wireless networking feature in areas where wireless network use is prohibited, such as in hospitals. Abide by medical institution regulations when using the product on their premises.

MAGNETS AND MEDICAL DEVICES

This product has magnets which may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators and programmable shunt valves or other medical devices. Do not place this product close to such medical devices or persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using this product if you use such medical devices.

VOLUME LEVEL

Permanent hearing loss may occur if the headset or headphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. Over time, increasingly loud audio may start to sound normal but can actually be damaging your hearing. If you experience ringing or any discomfort in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the sooner your hearing could be affected. To protect your hearing:
– Limit the amount of time you use the headset or headphones at high volume.
– Avoid raising the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
– Lower the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY

Do not handle damaged or leaking lithium-ion batteries. If the material comes into contact with the skin, eyes or clothes, immediately rinse the affected area with clean water and consult your doctor.
The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated.

YOUNG CHILDREN INJURIES

Keep the product out of the reach of young children. Young children may swallow small parts, may wrap the cables around themselves, which may inflict injury or cause an accident or a malfunction.

NEVER DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY THE PRODUCT OR ACCESSORIES

There is a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury.

Static shock

When using a headset or headphones in particularly dry air conditions, you may sometimes experience a small and quick (static) shock on your ears. This is a result of static electricity accumulated in the body, and is not a malfunction of your headset or headphones.

Compliance information

FCC and ISED Canada Notice

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This equipment has been tested and found to comply 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 transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

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.
You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
