Safety Instructions
1.
Read the safety instructions carefully before using your Sansa.
2.
Read this entire manual to ensure proper usage.
3.
Keep this User Guide for future reference.
4.
Do not use HeadPhones/Earphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. This may create a traffic hazard and may be
illegal in some areas. It can also be dangerous to play your music with
Headphones/Earphones at high volume while walking, or engaged
in other activities. You should exercise extreme caution and discontinue
use in potentially hazardous situations.
5.
Avoid using Headphones/Earphones at high volume. Hearing experts
advise against continuous loud and extended music play. Keep the
volume at a moderate level, so that you are better able to hear outside
sound, and to be considerate of the people around you.
6.
Keep your player away from sinks, drinks, bathtubs, showers, rain, and
other sources of moisture. Moisture can cause electric shocks with any
electronic device.
7.
Follow these tips to keep your player working well for a long time:
Clean your player with a soft lint-free cloth used on glass lenses.
Do not allow young children to use your player unsupervised.
Never force any connector into the ports of your player or your
computer. Make sure your connectors are the identical shape and
size before you connect.
Do not disassemble, crush, short-circuit or incinerate battery as it
may cause fire, injury, burns or other hazards

mode, then the files can be dragged/copied to the Removable Disk/Music
directory
Question: Is the player compatible with podcasts?
Answer: As long as the podcasts are in mp3 format and an appropriate bit
rate (32-320 kbps), then the player should be capable of playing the files.
Question: Why does my player say unknown artist/album?
Answer: Normally this is because the ID3 tags are missing information. On
the computer, right-click the song and choose Properties, then the Summary
tab and click Advanced. Then you can input the data such as Artist, Album,
Song Title, Track Number, Genre, and Year.

Important - Safe Hearing Level Info
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE USING YOUR SANSA MP3 PLAYER
Congratulations on the purchase of your SansaTM media player!
Your media player is equipped with a variety of features. To help you maximize your listening pleasure, SanDisk would like to advise you that it is important to use your headphones with your media player at a safe hearing level.
• Exposure or repeated exposure for an extended period of time to music
and other sounds that are too loud can cause damage to your hearing
resulting in temporary or even permanent “noise induced hearing loss”.
• Symptoms of hearing loss increase gradually with prolonged exposure at
high levels of loudness.
Initially, you may not even be aware of the loss unless detected with a hearing test.
HEARING LEVELS
To help you understand what may be considered a safe hearing level, the
following examples are included for your reference.
Examples of Typical Approximate Sound level
Sound Levels in Decibels (dB)*
Refrigerator humming 40
Normal conversation 60
City traffic 80
Motorcycles and lawnmowers 90#
Rock concerts 110-120#
Firearms 120-140#
* dB -A decibel (dB) is a unit of relative measurement of the strength of
sound wave. In decibels (dB), a measured signal level doubles with every
additional 3 dB.
# - These sound decibel levels are considered harmful under extended exposure.

FOR YOUR SAFETY!
• Your hearing may adapt to higher volumes of sound. In order to prevent
any harmful impact to your hearing, you must control the sound emanating
from your headphones and set the media player volume to a low setting
where you can hear it clearly and comfortably.
• Studies, including one from NIDCD indicate that sounds of less than 80
decibels, even after long exposure, are unlikely to cause a hearing loss.
• Listen to your media player at such a level that you can still hear conversation and other people in your environment without shouting when you
attempt to converse.
• It can also be dangerous to play your music with headphones/earphones
at high volume while walking, or engaged in other activities. You should
exercise extreme caution and discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
• Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or operating any
motorized vehicle. This may create a traffic hazard and may be illegal in
some areas.
