It is the responsibility of the purchaser to make sure all users of this product are made aware of the information in this letter. If the product is ever sold, transferred or given to a new owner, this warning letter should be provided to the new owner.


Read before using the magnets or magnetic products

Disclaimer: Star unite industry neither assumes nor accepts any liability for damages resulting from the handling, use, or misuse of its products. With each purchase, the customer confirms that you have read and understood the following warnings. Also agrees that he / she is responsible for all damages and injuries caused by the magnets and hoops, which include personal injuries, property damages and magnet damages.

Everyone must agree with the terms before purchase and use of the product.

The following should not be construed as a complete and exhaustive list of hazards presented by magnetic materials. This document is provided for information only. Readers are responsible for checking the accuracy, completeness, currency and/or suitability of all information themselves. Star Magnet does not represent, guarantee or warranty the accuracy, completeness, currency, or suitability of the information in this document. Star Magnet specifically disclaims any and all liability for any claims or damages that may result from providing this document or the information it contains.

Children

Children should not be allowed to handle the magnetic products or the neodymium magnets that are a part of the product as they can be dangerous. Children and adults should not ingest magnets or place magnets in any body orifice such the ear, nose or mouth. Ingestion of magnets is very hazardous. If magnets are ingested or aspirated to the lungs, immediate medical attention is required.

Pinch and Eye Hazard

The magnetic products and magnets included in this product can pose a serious pinch hazard due to their attractive force on each other and to any object containing iron. Usually surprise is an issue--they can jump out of your hands and snap together from a surprising distance before you realize what is happening. Fingers and other body parts can get severely pinched between two attracting hoops or items. Keep items like scissors, pins, and any other items that contain metal out of your work area.

Transportation

Transportation of magnetic materials by air in the United States is regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation and is covered under the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 49 parts 100-185. We make sure our products follow the packaging guidelines for magnetized material when shipping by air transportation. 

Magnetized material is not regulated as a hazardous material when transported via Express / Sea transportation.

Pacemakers

Individuals with health issues which require that they wear electronics of any sort like pacemakers, defibrillators or other internal and external medical devices should use caution when handling strong magnets, such as the type included in the magnetic hoops. Pace-makers may be damaged or switch to "Test Mode" in the presence of a strong magnetic force, if a pace-maker or other medical device is in use, magnetic fields may affect the operation of these devices. Consult your physician and the manufacturer of your medical device to determine its susceptibility to static magnetic fields prior to handling the magnetic hoops. All of our magnetic products should be kept at a safe distance from individuals with these devices.

Damage to magnetic media, electronics, and mechanical devices

The strong magnetic fields of neodymium magnets that are a part of this product can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, hard drives, credit cards, magnetic I.D. cards, cassette tapes, video tapes or other such devices. They can also damage televisions, computers, cell phones, VCRs, computer monitors and other CRT displays. Never place neodymium magnets near electronic appliances, mechanical watches, hearing aids, or loud speakers.

Certain electronic devices are sensitive to magnetic fields and may be damaged permanently or temporarily disabled if exposed to a magnetic field that is too strong. Video screens and televisions will become distorted and/or discolored if exposed to a strong magnetic field. While damaged screens can usually be demagnetized, It’s often tricky and may require qualified service technicians to do so. Other electronic devices like cell phones and pagers can also be damaged. Store your magnetic products in a safe place away from electronics of any. Keep all magnets at least 24 inches away from all types of magnetic media.

Disposal

The rare earth magnets in this product should never be burned, as burning will create toxic fumes. Rare earth magnets should be disposed of in compliance with local, state, and Federal law. All strong permanent magnets should be thermally demagnetized prior to disposal. Alternatively, all strong permanent magnets should be placed in a steel container prior to disposal so the magnets do not attract waste disposal equipment or refuse containers.
