Disposal of batteries and product
The crossed-out wheelie bin symbols on products and batteries,
or on their respective packaging, indicates they must not be
disposed of in domestic waste as they contain substances that
can be damaging to the environment and human health.
The chemical symbols Hg, Cd or Pb, where marked, indicate
that the battery contains more than the specified value of
mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd) or lead (Pb) set out in Battery
Directive (2006/66/EC).
The solid bar indicates that the product was placed on the
market after 13th August, 2005.
Help protect the environment by disposing of your product or
batteries responsibly.

WARNING
A very small percentage of the public, due to an existing condition, may experience
epileptic seizures or momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain types
of flashing colours or patterns, especially on screens. While the
Genio
device does
not contribute to any additional risks, we do recommend that parents supervise
their children while they play video games. If your child experiences dizziness,
altered vision, disorientation, or convulsions, discontinue use immediately and
consult your doctor. Please note that focusing on an LCD screen at close range for
a prolonged period of time may cause fatigue or discomfort. We recommend that
children take a 15-minute break for every hour of play.
Caution
Use the power adaptor that came with this device to charge it.
Please note:
VTech
®
is the only service provider that is authorised to replace the battery
on your
Genio
device. Any attempt to remove or replace the battery by a third party or
by yourself may damage your
Genio
device and will void your warranty. If you feel your
battery needs service, please contact VTech's Consumer Services Department.
