Hearing loss Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing. To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods. Background noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. The Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic sold with iPhone 4S and later in China (identifiable by dark insulating rings on the plug) are designed to comply with Chinese standards and are not compatible with iPod classic. Use only compatible earbuds or headphones with your device. Turn on the audio and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear. For more information about hearing loss, see www.apple.com/sound. For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on iPod classic, see Setting the maximum volume limit on page 30.

Radio frequency interference Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use of electronic devices (for example, in health care facilities or blasting areas). Although iPod classic is designed, tested, and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency emissions, such emissions from iPod classic can negatively affect the operation of other electronic equipment, causing them to malfunction. Turn off iPod classic when use is prohibited, such as while traveling in aircraft, or when asked to do so by authorities.

Medical conditions If you have medical conditions that you believe could be affected by iPod classic (for example, seizures, blackouts, eyestrain, or headaches), consult with your physician prior to using iPod classic.

Explosive atmospheres Do not charge or use iPod classic in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, such as at a fueling area, or in areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust or metal powders). Obey all signs and instructions.

Repetitive motion When you perform repetitive activities such as playing games on iPod classic, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. If you experience discomfort, stop using iPod classic and consult a physician.

Important handling information

Using connectors ports, and buttons Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive pressure to a button because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

Operating iPod classic in acceptable temperatures iPod classic is designed to work in temperatures between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F) and stored in temperatures between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). iPod classic can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of this temperature range (for example, if left in a hot car). iPod classic will shut down if it gets too hot. Avoid exposing iPod classic to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. When you’re using iPod classic or charging the battery, it is normal for iPod classic to get warm.

Keeping the outside of iPod classic clean To clean iPod classic, unplug all cables, turn

iPod classic off, and slide the Hold switch to HOLD. Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPod classic.
