Important Safety and Handling Information
• You suspect the adapter needs service or repair.
• You want to clean the adapter.
Read all safety instructions for any products and accessories before using with nabi. Fuhu is
not responsible for the operation of third-party accessories or their compliance with safety and
regulatory standards.
Avoiding Hearing Damage
Permanent hearing loss may occur if headphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to
a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but
can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop
listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before
your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
• Limit the amount of time you use earbuds, headphones, speakers, or earpieces 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.
Driving and Riding Safely
Use of nabi alone or with headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving a vehicle or
riding a bicycle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the laws and
regulations on the use of mobile devices like nabi in the areas where you drive or ride. Be careful
and attentive while driving or riding a bicycle. If you decide to use nabi while driving, keep in mind
the following guidelines:
Give full attention to driving or riding and to the road. Using a mobile device while driving or riding
may be distracting. If you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle, riding
a bicycle, or performing any activity that requires your full attention, safely pull off the road and
park if driving conditions allow.
Do not email, take notes, or perform any other activities that require your attention while driving.
Composing or reading emails or jotting down a to-do list takes attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
Seizures, Blackouts, and Eyestrain
A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never
had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games
or watching video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history of such
occurrences, you should consult a physician before playing games or watching videos on your
nabi. Discontinue use of nabi and consult a physician if you experience headaches, blackouts,
seizures, convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movement, or
disorientation. To reduce risk of headaches, blackouts, seizures, and eyestrain, avoid prolonged
use, hold nabi some distance from your eyes, use nabi in a well-lit room, and take frequent breaks.
