Electronic Equipment

If you are around sensitive electronic equipment–for example, if you are in a hospital–ask if you may use your NOOK. Settings such as intensive care units might forbid the use of any electronic device, with or without network- ing.

Battery

Your NOOK includes a non-replaceable lithium ion battery. Do not attempt to replace the battery. If you suspect your battery is having problems, please contact Customer Service.

Caution About High Audio Volume

WARNING:	Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended periods of time may affect your hearing. The
	louder the volume, the faster your hearing may be affected. To protect your hearing:
	• Limit the amount of time you use headsets 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. If you experience hearing
	discomfort, including the sensation of pressure or fullness in your ears, ringing in your ears, or
	muffled speech, you should stop listening to the device through your headset or headphones
	and have your hearing checked.
