54 Safety and Cleaning
Avoid Hearing Damage
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 mini 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 don’t 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 mini battery. iPod mini must be disposed of
according to local environmental battery disposal regulations.
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 mini volume to a safe
level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears, reduce the volume
or discontinue use of your iPod mini.
