y If the USB storage device is connected
through a USB hub, the device is not recognizable.
y A USB storage device using an automatic

normal music files, image files or movie files.

was formatted as a FAT32 file system or
NTFS file system provided with the Windows operating system. In case of a storage
device formatted as a different utility program
which is not supported by Windows, it may
not be recognized.
y Please connect power to a USB storage
device(over 0.5 A) which requires an external
power supply. If not, the device may not be

the cable offered by the device maker.
