Important - Safe Hearing Level Info

IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE USING YOUR SANSA e200R RHAPSODY M P3 PLAYER

Congratulations on the purchase of your Sansa

™

media player! Your media player is equipped with a variety of features. To help you maximize your listening pleasure, SanDisk would like to adv ise you that it is important to use your headphones with your media player at a safe hearing level.

Page 63

• 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 humm i ng 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. Information courtesy of the National Institute of Deafness & Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD)

Page 64

FOR YOUR SAFETY!

• Your hearing may adapt to higher volumes of sound. In order to prevent any harmful impact to your hea ring, you m ust contr ol the sound em anating f rom 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.
