IMPORTANT — A LIRE AVEC ATTENTIONEcouter de manière prolongée, à un très haut volume sonore de la musique (au dessus de 80 decibels), au moyen d'un casque ou d'écouteurs, peut entraîner une détérioration irreversible et définitive de vos facultés auditives. L’usage répété et habituel d’un casque ou d’écouteurs à un niveau de volume sonore trop élevé peut donner l'impression à l'utilisateur que le volume sonore émis par l’appareil n'est pas suffisant. L’utilisateur sera tenté d’augmenter, petit à petit, son réglage habituel, risquant ainsi d'atteindre un niveau dangereux pour ses oreilles. Afin de protéger votre santé, et vos oreilles, veillez à maintenir le volume de la sortie casque de votre appareil à un niveau adapté et à interrompre son utilisation régulièrement et particulièrement si des symptômes, comme des troubles de l'ouïe, se manifestent.N'utilisez pas le casque ou les écouteurs pendant la conduite d'une voiture, d'une bicyclette ou de tout autre véhicule motorisé, afin d'éviter tout accident de le circulation.

Soyez toujours extrêment prudent et cessez d'utiliser cet appareil dans les situations présentant des risques d'accident.Evitez d'utiliser le casque ou les écouteurs à volume élevé. Les médecins spécialistes de l'audition déconseillent une écoute continue à volume trop élevé.

Explanatory Note: California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires special product labeling for products containing certain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Creative has chosen to provide a warning based on its knowledge about the presence of one or more listed chemicals without attempting to evaluate the level of exposure. With Creative's products, the exposure may be below the Proposition 65 level of concern, or could even be zero. However, out of an abundance of caution, Creative has elected to place the Proposition 65 warning on its products.Déclaration de la Proposition 65 de la Californie AVERTISSEMENT: La manipulation de ce produit peut vous exposer à des produits chimiques qui sont reconnus par l'État de la Californie comme pouvant provoquer le cancer, des anomalies congénitales ou d'autres effets nuisibles à la reproduction.Veuillez vous laver les mains après l'avoir manipuler.

Creative a choisi d'inclure une mise en garde s'appuyant sur sa connaissance de la présence d'un ou de plusieurs de ces produits chimiques sans essayer d'en évaluer le niveau d'exposition. Pour les produits de Creative, le niveau d'exposition peut être inférieur au niveau critique établi par la Proposition 65 ou même être nul. Néanmoins, par souci extrême de prudence, Creative a choisi de placer l'avertissement de la Proposition 65 sur ses produits.
