Prolonged heat exposure iPod touch and its power adapter (available separately) comply
with applicable surface temperature standards and limits. However, even within these limits,
sustained contact with warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury.
Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device or its power
adapter when it’s operating or plugged into a power source for long periods of time. For
example, don’t sleep or place a device or power adapter under a blanket, pillow, or your body
when it’s plugged into a power source. It’s important to keep iPod touch and its power adapter
in a well-ventilated area when using or charging them. Take special care if you have a physical
condition that affects your ability to detect heat against the body.

Hearing loss Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing. Background noise,
as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they
actually are. Use only compatible receivers, earbuds, headphones, speakerphones, or earpieces
with your device. Turn on the audio and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear.

WARNING:
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for
long periods.

Radio signals iPod touch uses radio signals to connect to wireless networks. For information
about the amount of power used to transmit these signals, and about steps you can take to
minimize exposure, see Settings > General > About > Legal > RF Exposure.

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

Medical devices iPod touch contains radios that emit electromagnetic fields, and contains
magnets near the bottom. The included headphones also have magnets in the earbuds. These
electromagnetic fields and magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other
medical devices. Maintain at least 6 inches (approximately 15 cm) of separation between your
pacemaker or defibrillator and iPod touch or the earbuds. If you suspect iPod touch is interfering
with your pacemaker or any other medical device, stop using iPod touch and consult your
physician for information specific to your medical device.
