This chapter provides you the safety tips and cleaning instructions
for your Sansa® Clip+ MP3 player.
Safety Tips & Cleaning
Instructions
Read the safety instructions carefully before using your Sansa® MP3 player.
1. Read this entire manual to ensure proper usage.
2. Keep this User Manual for future reference.
3. 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.
4. 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 are considerate of the people around you.
5. Keep your player away from sinks, drinks, bathtubs, showers, rain, and other sources of
moisture. Moisture can cause electric shocks with any electronic device.
6. Follow these tips to keep your player working well for a long time:
• Clean your player with a soft lint-free cloth.
• 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.
• Do not disassemble, crush, short-circuit or incinerate battery as it may cause fire,
injury, burns or other hazards.
Disposal Instructions
Do not dispose of this device with unsorted waste. Improper disposal may be harmful to the
environment and human health. Please refer to your local waste authority for information on

How do I drag music files to my Sansa® Clip+ MP3 player?

When I select them, another song begins to play. What is wrong?
You may not have purchased the rights to play the song on an additional device. To test this,
try to play a song that you have copied from an older CD and converted to MP3 format. If
you can play that song, but not the song that will not play, then you need to purchase the
rights to play the song.
Is the player compatible with podcasts?
As long as the podcasts are in MP3 format and an appropriate bit rate (32-320 kbps), then
