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.

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.

Important – Safety Hearing Level Info

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.
