IMPORTANT INFORMATION

YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE USING 

YOUR SANSA MP3 PLAYER

Congratulations on the purchase of 

your Sansa

®

 MP3 player!

Safety Instructions

Your MP3 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 MP3 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.
•  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 Sansa MP3 player’s 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 Sansa MP3 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 or earphones while driving, cycling, or operating 
  any motorized vehicle. This may create a traffic hazard and may be illegal 
  some areas.

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 Sound Levels           Approximate Sound Level in Decibels (dB)*

Refrigerator humming
Normal conversation
City traffic
Motorcycles/lawnmowers
Rock concerts
Firearms

*  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.

READ THE FOLLOWING ADDITIONAL SAFETY GUIDELINES CAREFULLY 
BEFORE USING YOUR SANSA MP3 PLAYER:
