For customers in Canada

This unit contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply

with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s

licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two

conditions:

(1) This unit may not cause interference; and

(2) This unit must accept any interference, including interference that

may cause undesired operation of the unit.

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health

problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is

no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely

safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency

energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high

levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of

low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known

adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not

found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some

biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been

confirmed by additional research. The unit has been tested and found to

comply with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment and meets RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF)

Exposure rules.

High volume may adversely affect your hearing.

Do not use the unit while walking, driving, or cycling. Doing so may cause

traffic accidents.

Do not use in hazardous areas unless the surrounding sound can be heard.

If water or foreign matter enters the unit, it may result in fire or electric

shock. If water or foreign matter enters the unit, stop use immediately and

consult your nearest Sony dealer. In particular, be careful in the following

cases.

• When using the unit near a sink or liquid container

Be careful that the unit does not fall into a sink or container filled with

water.

• When using the unit in the rain or snow, or in humid locations

For details on the effects of contact with the human body from the mobile

phone or other wireless devices connected to the unit, refer to the

instruction manual of the wireless device.

If the earbud tips are not securely attached, they may fall off and remain

inside the ear during use. Make sure that the earbud tips are securely

attached before use.

Pour les clients au Canada

L’émetteur/récepteur exempt de licence contenu dans la présente unité

est conforme aux CNR d’Innovation, Sciences et Développement

économique Canada applicables aux deux conditions suivantes :

1) l’unité ne doit pas produire de brouillage ;

2) l’utilisateur de l’unité doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique

subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le

fonctionnement

Les connaissances scientifiques dont nous disposons n’ont mis en

évidence aucun problème de santé associé à l’usage des appareils sans

fil à faible puissance. Nous ne sommes cependant pas en mesure de

prouver que ces appareils sans fil à faible puissance sont entièrement

sans danger. Les appareils sans fil à faible puissance émettent une

énergie fréquence radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des

micro-ondes lorsqu’ils sont utilisés. Alors qu’une dose élevée de RF peut

avoir des effets sur la santé (en chauffant les tissus), l’exposition à de

faibles RF qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n’a pas de mauvais effets

connus sur la santé. De nombreuses études ont été menées sur les

expositions aux RF faibles et n’ont découvert aucun effet biologique.

Certaines études ont suggéré qu’il pouvait y avoir certains effets

biologiques, mais ces résultats n’ont pas été confirmés par des

recherches supplémentaires. L’appareil a été testé et jugé conforme aux

limites d’exposition aux rayonnements ISDE énoncées pour un

environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles d’exposition aux

fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’ISDE.

Un volume élevé peut nuire à votre audition.

N’utilisez pas l’appareil lorsque vous marchez, conduisez ou faites du vélo.

Cela pourrait provoquer des accidents de la circulation.

N’utilisez pas l’appareil dans des zones dangereuses à moins que les bruits

environnants puissent être entendus.

Si de l’eau ou des corps étrangers pénètrent dans l’appareil, cela pourrait

provoquer un incendie ou un choc électrique. Si de l’eau ou un corps

étranger pénètre dans l’appareil, cessez immédiatement de l’utiliser, puis

consultez votre revendeur Sony le plus proche. En particulier, faites

attention dans les cas suivants :

• Lors de l’utilisation à côté d’un évier ou d’un récipient de liquide

Veillez à ce que l’appareil ne tombe pas dans un évier ou un récipient

rempli d’eau.

• Lors de l’utilisation sous la pluie, la neige ou dans des lieux humides

Pour plus de détails sur les effets du contact entre le corps humain et le

téléphone mobile ou d’autres périphériques sans fil connectés à l’appareil,

reportez-vous au mode d’emploi du périphérique sans fil.

Si les embouts d’oreillettes ne sont pas fermement fixés, ils peuvent tomber

et rester à l’intérieur de l’oreille pendant l’utilisation. Assurez-vous que les

embouts d’oreillettes sont fermement fixés avant l’utilisation.
