BLUETOOTH® Signal Transmission

• Microwaves emitted from Bluetooth devices may affect the operation of electronic medical devices. Accidents may occur, so turn off this device and other Bluetooth devices in the following locations: In hospitals, near priority seating on trains, in areas with flammable gas, near automatic doors, or near fire alarms.
• The audio playback on this device may be delayed compared to the audio playback on the transmitting device due to the characteristics of wireless Bluetooth technology. Therefore, the audio may not be synchronized with the images when watching movies or playing games.

When Charging the Device

• After charging is complete, disconnect the USB Type-C cable.
• When connecting the USB cable, do not apply excessive force to the connection part.
• When connecting or disconnecting the USB cable, do not apply excessive force, such as pulling the cable, and connect or disconnect the connector straight in line with the port.
• If the USB cable connector is deformed, such as bent, stop using it immediately.

Using the Device While Charging

• If liquid such as water or sweat, or foreign matter such as dust adheres to the USB Type-C cable or USB port, charging the device may cause serious accidents such as burns, injuries from fire, electric shock, heat generation, or ignition, or may cause damage. Please pay attention to the following information when using the device while charging. If you feel anything unusual, stop using it immediately. Ensure there is no dust or foreign matter inside. If the cable or port is wet with liquid such as drinking water or sweat while charging, disconnect the USB cable from the connected device to stop charging (Figure B).
