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.

8. Do not disassemble, crush, short-circuit or incinerate battery as it may
cause fire, injury, burns or other hazards
