Safety and Cleaning

Read on to learn about using iPod safely and cleaning iPod.
Important Safety Instructions
When setting up and using your iPod, remember the following: Read all the installation instructions carefully before you plug your iPod Power Adapter in to a power outlet. Keep these instructions handy for reference by you and others. Follow all instructions and warnings dealing with your iPod. Warning Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operation of this product, or similar products, must always be supervised by an adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical product and do not permit them to handle any cables.
LL2595_border.book Page 58 Wednesday, April 28, 2004 3:44 PM

Avoid Hearing Damage

Warning Permanent hearing loss may occur if earbuds or headphones are used at high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set your iPod volume to a safe level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use of your iPod.

Do Not Use While Driving

Important: Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to your iPod if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.

Connectors and Ports

Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port do not join with reasonable ease, they probably dont match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

Battery

Do not attempt to remove the iPod battery. iPod must be disposed of according to local environmental regulations.
LL2595_border.book Page 59 Wednesday, April 28, 2004 3:44 PM

Using the Power Adapter

Use only the power adapter that came with your iPod. Adapters for other electronic devices may look similar, but they may damage your iPod. The only way to shut off power to your power adapter completely is to disconnect it from the power source. Always leave space around your power adapter. Do not use this equipment in a location where airflow around the power adapter is confined, such as a bookcase. When connecting or disconnecting your power adapter, always hold the power adapter by its sides. Keep fingers away from the metal part of the plug. Before connecting the FireWire cable to the power adapter, make sure there are no foreign objects inside the power adapters FireWire port. The power adapter for your iPod is a high-voltage component and should not be opened for any reason, even when the iPod is off. If the power adapter needs service, see Learning More, Service, and Support on page 55. Never force a connector into the power adapter FireWire port. If the connector and port do not join with reasonable ease, they probably dont match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

About Operating and Storage Temperatures
Operate your iPod in a place where the temperature is always between 0 and 35 C (32 to 95 F). Store your iPod in a place where the temperature is always between 20 and 45 C (4 to 113 F). Dont leave iPod in your car, since temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range. iPod play time may temporarily shorten in low-temperature conditions. When youre using your iPod or charging the battery, it is normal for the bottom of the case to get warm. The bottom of the iPod case functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.

Avoid Wet Locations

Warning To reduce the chance of shock or injury, do not use your iPod in or near water or wet locations. Keep your iPod and power adapter away from sources of liquids, such as drinks, washbasins, bathtubs, shower stalls, and so on. Protect your iPod and the power adapter from direct sunlight and rain or other moisture. Take care not to spill any food or liquid on iPod or its power adapter. If you do, unplug iPod before cleaning up the spill. In case of a spill, you may have to send your equipment to Apple for service. See Learning More, Service, and Support on page 55.

These cables are available separately at www.apple.com/store. Important: Make sure you enable your iPod or iPhone to send a video signal out to your TV or receiver. For more information, see the user guide for your iPod or iPhone. Before you begin connecting components, turn down the volume on your iPod or iPhone, turn off iPod or iPhone, and turn off the power to all your components.

Important Safety Instructions
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in injury or damage. Avoid Hearing Damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if your iPod or iPhone is used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing: Limit the amount of time you listen at high volume. Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. Turn down the volume if you cant hear people speaking near you. For information about how to set a maximum volume limit, see the user guide for your iPod or iPhone.
