Apple Nike + iPod - Manual (Page 17)

Important Safety Information
Exercising Before starting any exercise program, you should have a complete physical
examination by your physician. Do a warmup or stretching exercise before beginning
any workout. Be careful and attentive while exercising. Slow down, if necessary, before
adjusting your iPod while running. Stop exercising immediately if you feel pain, or feel
faint, dizzy, exhausted, or short of breath. By exercising, you assume the risks inherent
in physical exercise, including any injury that may result from such activity.
Choking hazard The receiver and sensor are potential choking hazards. Keep them
away from children under three years of age.
Avoid hearing damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if earbuds or headphones
are used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a
higher volume of sound 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 use earbuds or headphones at high volume.
 Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
 Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
Disassembling the sensor Do not attempt to open the sensor, disassemble it, or
remove the battery. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Do not use the receiver or
iPod in or near water or wet locations.
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in injury or damage.
