8. SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
SAFETY GUIDELINES
In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Kraken Ultimate, we
suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:
Should 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°( (32 ° F) to 40°( (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 Ultimate 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.
