damage to your device. XM Satellite Radio claims no responsibility for damage from data loss
due to breakdown, repair or other causes.
DO NOT:
•
•
Expose to extreme temperatures, i.e. above 140°F (60°C) or below -4°F (-20°C).
Expose to moisture. Do not use the radio near or in water. Don’t touch the radio with
wet hands.
•
•
•
•
•
Let any foreign matter spill into the radio.

Introduction
objects away from the power plugs.
•
Stay aware of your surroundings when enjoying your XMp3 radio. If you’re a
pedestrian, keep your eyes and ears open. If you’re driving, keep your eyes
on the road and your hands on the wheel. Not doing so can result in
personal injury, death, and/or damage to your device, accessories, and/or to
your vehicle or other property.
•
Place your XMp3 radio where it won’t interfere with your vehicle’s safety
features, such as airbags. Failing to correctly place the device may result in
injury to you and others if it becomes detached during an accident and/or
obstructs the deployment of an airbag.
Environmental Information

Follow local guidelines for waste disposal when discarding packaging,
batteries, and electronic appliances. The battery type is Lithium-Ion
(Li-Ion) and should be disposed of properly.

Protect Your Ears and Yourself
•
Always follow traffic safety directions. Do not use earbuds or headphones
while operating a bicycle, automobile, or motorcycle. Not only is it
dangerous, it may be illegal.
•
•
•
Make sure the earbud or headphone cable does not get in the way of your arms
or other surrounding objects while you’re walking or exercising.
Maintain a moderate volume when walking or exercising. Always be aware of
what is happening around you.
Using earbuds or headphones for a long time and/or at high volume can cause
serious damage to your hearing. If you hear ringing in your ears, STOP listening
immediately.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing “comfort level”adapts to higher and higher
volumes; what sounds “normal”may be dangerously loud.
TO ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL: Start the volume control at a low setting. Slowly increase the
volume until you can hear comfortably, without distortion, and still be aware of your surroundings.
ONCE YOU ESTABLISH A COMFORTABLE SOUND LEVEL:
Leave the volume at that level; do not increase it over time.
Pioneer and the Consumer Electronics Association recommend that you avoid prolonged
exposure to excessive noise. Sustained sound levels above 85 decibels can be dangerous without

hearing protection. (For reference, a garbage disposal or loud shouting at 3 feet are about 80
decibels; a food blender or gas lawn blower at 3 feet are around 90 decibels.)
