22. Listening safety
• Before using the pedestrian kit, check that the volume is not
set to maximum to prevent hearing loss.
• The high volume settings are intended for individuals with
reduced hearing capacity and not for those with normal
hearing.
• Do not use the pedestrian kit while driving.
• Adjust the volume so that you can hear the sounds around you.
• To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high
volume levels for long periods.
• Listening to a portable audio player at high volumes can
damage your hearing and
• lead to hearing impairment (deafness, ringing ears, tinnitus
and hyperacusis).
• In order to prevent these risks it is recommended not to use
the device at full volume; use must not exceed one hour per day.
• Do not use pre-amplified or amplified models of
headphones or pedestrian kit (i.e. with individual volume
23. Electromagnetic waves safety information (SAR)
Your Chipo3 mobile is designed to not exceed the radio wave
limits recommended by the European authorities. These limits
include safety margins to ensure the protection of all persons
regardless of their age or health.
The SAR (specific absorption rate) of mobile phones quantifies
the maximum level of exposure of the user to electromagnetic
waves for aural use. French legislation stipulates that the SAR
must not exceed 2 W/kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
control and/or self-powered by batteries), as they do not
ensure adherence to the maximum volume.
This product complies with the EN 60950-1:2006/A12:2011
standard ''Information technology equipment - Safety - Part 1:
General requirements'' in accordance with the order of 25 July
2013 implementing Article L. 5232-1 of the French Public Health
Code concerning portable audio players.
The value of the SAR is determined on the basis of the highest
level of radio frequencies emitted during laboratory tests.
The actual value of the SAR during use of the phone is lower
than this level.
The value of the SAR of the phone can vary according to the
following factors: how far/close the phone is to a relay antenna,
use of accessories and others.
NOTE: The SAR value may vary, depending on national reporting
and testing requirements and the network band.
