About Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limit for radio
frequency energy, which is set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S
government.
The term “EMI” is short for the electromagnetic interference caused by the
electromagnetic field generated by electronic devices. In fact, most electrical appliances
and devices emit electric and magnetic fields, and most of modern electronic devices are
susceptible to the EMI if they are inadequately shielded or designed.

About Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) - Continued
•
If you use any personal medical device, such as a pacemaker, please consult the
manufacture of your medical device to determine if it is adequately shielded from EMI.
Your physician might assist you in obtaining this information.
Please turn off this device if you are instructed to do so, especially on an airplane or
in a hospital.

Please keep away from medical instruments in a hospital or medical unit while using
this device.
IMPORTANT NOTES ON HEARING
Your hearing is very important to you and to us. We strongly recommend you to follow
the guideline below in order to prevent possible damage to or loss of hearing.
Hearing experts caution that listening to loud sounds can damage hearing over time. With
continuous listening to loud sounds, hearing adapts and will give the impression that
volume has reduced. What seems normal may, in fact, be harmful. To guard against this
before hearing adapts, set the volume at a low level and slowly increase the volume level
until sound can be heard comfortably and clearly without distortion. Damage to hearing is
cumulative and irreversible. Ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is
too loud. Once a comfortable listening level has been established, do not increase the
volume level further.
Cautions
•
If you experience a ringing sound in your ear, lower the volume or discontinue the use
of this product.
•
Do not use the headphones while driving or cycling. Because this product reduces
the external noises, you might not be able to hear the warning sounds, such as an
automobile horn, and might result in a traffic accident. Additionally, listening to
headphones while driving is illegal in many places

GETTING STARTED
What is Bluetooth wireles s technology?
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range wireless
communication technology intended to replace the cables
connecting electronic devices while maintaining the high
level of security. With Bluetooth wireless technology, two
devices can communicate at the same time without the
need to face each other or the concern of interference
from other wireless communication within its optimum
range of 33 feet.
Through a process called “Pairing,” two or more devices
with Bluetooth wireless technology can interact with each
other without interference from other wireless platforms
nearby, including other Bluetooth wireless
communications between unrelated devices.
Note: In order to use this headset with other devices featuring Bluetooth wireless
technology, such devices must be supported by the same profiles as the headset. Refer
to the owner’s manual of the accompanying device for its Bluetooth profiles and for
pairing instructions and operating features.
* The integrated remote control feature is only supported when the connected devices
support the remote control feature through Bluetooth wireless technology.
ꢀWhen connected to a computer or a USB power adapter with the included USB cable,
i212 can only be charged. Its other functions will be disabled. Also depend on the Audio
devices software, remote control function might be limited.

However, this feature only works if the corresponding mobile phone is designed with
the same feature. Consult the owner’s manual of the mobile phone or audio device
for these design features.
•
The i212 can only be paired with two devices at the same time; one with the mobile
phone and the other with an audio device or the supplied wireless audio transmitter.
