Additional Information For more information from the US FCC about exposure to RF energy, see: www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety For information about the scientific research related to RF energy exposure, see the EMF Research Database maintained by the World Health Organization at: www.who.int/peh-emf/research/database Radio Frequency Interference Radio-frequency emissions from electronic equipment can negatively affect the operation of other electronic equipment causing them to malfunction. Although iPod touch is designed, tested, and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency emission in the United States, Canada, Japan, the European Union, and other countries, the wireless transmitters and electrical circuits in iPod touch may cause interference in other electronic equipment. Therefore, please take the following precautions: Aircraft Use of iPod touch may be prohibited while traveling in aircraft. For information about how to turn off the iPod touch wireless transmitters, see the iPod touch User Guide. Vehicles Radio frequency emissions from iPod touch may affect electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. Pacemakers To avoid potential interference with pacemakers, persons with pacemakers: ÂÂ Should always keep iPod touch more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the device is turned on ÂÂ Should not carry iPod touch in a breast pocket If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn iPod touch off immediately. (Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears, then drag the slider.) Medical Devices If you use any personal medical device, consult the device manufacturer or your physician to determine if it is adequately shielded from radio frequency emissions from iPod touch. Health Care Facilities Hospitals and health care facilities may use equipment that is particularly sensitive to external radio frequency emissions. Turn iPod touch off when staff or posted signs instruct you to do so. Posted Facilities Turn off iPod touch in any facility where posted notices so require. Keeping the Outside of iPod touch Clean To clean iPod touch, unplug all cables and turn off iPod touch (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, and then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don't use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPod touch.

Vehicles
Radio frequency emissions from iPod touch may affect electronic systems
in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle.
Pacemakers
To avoid potential interference with pacemakers, persons with
pacemakers:
Â
Should
always
keep iPod touch more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker
when the device is turned on
Â
Should not carry iPod touch in a breast pocket
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn iPod touch
off
immediately. (Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears, then

Medical Devices
If you use any personal medical device, consult the device
manufacturer or your physician to determine if it is adequately shielded from radio
frequency emissions from iPod touch.
Health Care Facilities
Hospitals and health care facilities may use equipment that is
particularly sensitive to external radio frequency emissions. Turn iPod touch off when
staff or posted signs instruct you to do so.
Posted Facilities
Turn off iPod touch in any facility where posted notices so require.
Keeping the Outside of iPod touch Clean
