Product information

For product information or assistance with product operation:
In the U.S.A., refer to “Customer Services Directory” below.
For assistance in the continental U.S.A. in obtaining repairs please ship the product to:

Panasonic Services Company - Customer Servicenter
Suite B 4900 George McVay Drive
McAllen, TX 78503

In Puerto Rico contact Panasonic Puerto Rico, Inc.

Tel. (787) 750-4300

Fax. (787) 768-2910

When shipping the unit carefully pack and send it prepaid, adequately insured and preferably in the original carton.
Include a letter detailing the complaint and provide a day time phone number where you can be reached.
IF REPAIR IS NEEDED DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD THE PURCHASER WILL BE REQUIRED TO FURNISH
A SALES RECEIPT/PROOF OF PURCHASE INDICATING DATE OF PURCHASE, AMOUNT PAID AND PLACE OF
PURCHASE. CUSTOMER WILL BE CHARGED FOR THE REPAIR OF ANY UNIT RECEIVED WITHOUT SUCH
PROOF OF PURCHASE.
Also, the purchaser will be responsible for shipping the unit to the above address.

In Canada, contact the Panasonic Canada Inc. Customer Care Centre at 905-624-5505, or visit the website
(www.panasonic.ca), or an authorized Servicentre closest to you.

To reduce risk of radio interference caused by
headphone-, earphone- or microphone cable, only use
adequate accessories with cable length less than 3 m.

Unit

Avoid using or placing this unit near sources of heat. Do
not leave it in an automobile exposed to direct sunlight for
a long period of time with the doors and windows closed.

To avoid product damage, do not expose this product to
rain, water or other liquids.

Do not keep this unit and magnetized cards (bank
cards, commuter passes, etc.) close together.

The speaker does not have magnetic shielding. Do not
place it near televisions, personal computers or other
devices easily influenced by magnetism.

Batteries

Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not use
if the covering has been peeled off.

Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting the batteries.

Do not mix different types of batteries or old and new batteries.

Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the unit
for a long time.

Do not throw into fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or sub-
ject to excessive heat.

Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.

Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage
which can damage items the fluid contacts and may
cause a fire. If electrolyte leaks from the batteries, con-
sult your dealer. Wash thoroughly with water if elec-
trolyte comes in contact with any part of your body.

Keep out of the reach of small children. Accidental swallow-
ing of batteries can result in stomach and intestinal damage.

Allergies

Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the ear-
phones or any other parts that directly contact your skin.
Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.

Listening caution

Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high vol-
ume. Hearing experts advise against continuous extend-
ed play.

If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume
or discontinue use.

Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may
create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontin-
ue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air
type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn
up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around
you.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what
sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe
level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:

Start your volume control at a low setting.

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfort-
ably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

Leave it there.
