Safety
information
This manual describes how
to properly use your new
MP3 player. Read it carefully
to avoid damaging the player
and injuring yourself. Pay
particular attention to the
following serious warnings.
CAUTION
Situations that may result in death or serious injury to yourself or others
• Do not use the product during a thunderstorm. Thunderstorms can cause the player to
malfunction and increases the risk of electric shock.
• Using earphones or headphones for an extended time may cause serious damage to
your hearing.
If you are exposed to sound louder than 85db for an extended time, you may adversely
affect your hearing. The louder the sound is, the more seriously damaged your hearing
may be. Note that an ordinary conversation is between 50 to 60 db and road noise is
approximately 80 db.
You are strongly advised to set the volume level to medium. The medium level is usually
less than 2/3 of the maximum.
• If you hear a ringing in your ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the earphones or
headphones.
• Exposure to loud sounds while walking or driving may distract your attention and cause
an accident.
• Do not use the earphones while riding a bicycle, driving an automobile or motorcycle, or
while walking or jogging on a road or in a crosswalk. The earphones may prevent you
from hearing oncoming traffic and lead to a serious accident. Using earphones when
driving is also prohibited by law in some areas.
• Use only accessories provided by or approved by Samsung.
• When hanging the product around your neck, do not apply pressure to the neck strap.
To prevent accidental choking, keep the neck strap away from children, the elderly, and
people incapable of caring for themselves.
