Never, under any circumstances, look directly at the Sun, another bright source of light or at a laser through this device, as this may cause PERMANENT RETINAL DAMAGE and may lead to BLINDNESS.
Beware of insect bites!
Children should use the device under adult supervision only.
If a part of the device or battery is swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
Keep packaging materials away from children to avoid the risk of suffocation.
