Driving and Riding Safely  Use of iPad 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 iPad in the areas where you 
drive or ride. Be careful and attentive while driving 
or riding a bicycle. If you decide to use iPad while 
driving, keep in mind the following guidelines:
 Â
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, pull off the road and 
park if driving conditions require.
 Â
Do not email, take notes, look up phone 
numbers, or perform any other activities that 
require your attention while driving.
 Composing 
or reading emails, jotting down a to-do list, 
or flipping through your address book takes 
attention away from your primary responsibility, 
driving safely.
Navigating Safely  If your iPad has applications 
that provide maps, digital compass headings, 
directions or location-based navigation assistance, 
these applications should only be used for basic 
navigation assistance and should not be relied on 
to determine precise locations, proximity, distance, 
or direction.
Maps, digital compass, directions, and location-based 
applications provided by Apple depend on data 
collected and services provided by third parties. 
These data services are subject to change and may 
not be available in all geographic areas, resulting 
in maps, digital compass headings, directions, or 
location-based information that may be unavailable, 
inaccurate, or incomplete. 
iPad contains an internal digital compass located in 
the upper right corner of iPad. The accuracy of digital 
compass headings may be negatively affected by 
magnetic or other environmental interference. Never 
rely solely on the digital compass for determining 
direction. Compare the information provided on iPad 
to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to 
resolve any discrepancies. 
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag  An air bag 
inflates with great force. Do not store iPad or any of 
its accessories in the area over the air bag or in the 
air bag deployment area.
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 iPad. Discontinue use 
of iPad 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 iPad some distance  
from your eyes, use iPad in a well-lit room,  
and take frequent breaks. 
Glass Parts  The outside cover of the iPad screen 
is made of glass. This glass could break if iPad is 
dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial 
impact. If the glass chips or cracks, do not touch or 
attempt to remove the broken glass and stop using 
iPad. Glass cracked due to misuse or abuse is not 
covered under the warranty.
Choking Hazards  iPad contains small parts, 
which may present a choking hazard to small 
children. Keep iPad and its accessories away from 
small children.
Repetitive Motion  When you perform repetitive 
activities such as typing or playing games on iPad, 
you may experience occasional discomfort in your 
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of 
your body. Take frequent breaks and if you have 
discomfort during or after such use, stop use and 
see a physician.
Holding iPad  You can hold and use iPad in many 
different ways. It’s important to find a comfortable 
posture when using iPad, and to take frequent 
breaks. Use your lap, or a table, case, or dock 
accessory, to support iPad during use.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  Turn off iPad 
(press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, and then 
slide the onscreen slider) when in any area with a 
potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not charge 
iPad and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in 
such areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting 
in serious injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are 
often, but not always, marked clearly. Potential areas 
may include: fueling areas (such as gas stations); 
below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or 
storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum 
gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the 
air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, 
dust, or metal powders); and any other area where 
you would normally be advised to turn off your 
vehicle engine.
Using Connectors and Ports  Never force a 
connector into a port. Check for obstructions on 
the port. If the connector and port don’t join with 
reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make
