Dear Customer:
Selecting fine audio and video equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

DOWNLOADING AND TRANSFERRING FILES
TRANSFERRING FILES
You can download digital music files from the Internet or use encoding software to convert music that you have on an audio CD into MP3 or WMA format. Once these files are stored on your computer you can easily copy them to your player.
For Windows XP, if you have already installed WMP (Windows Media Player) 10, you can transfer music files
(MP3, WMA and/or WMA files with DRM 9 or 10) and photos to the player through the "Sync" function of WMP 10. Connect your player to the USB port on your computer as shown on page 7. Then, follow the procedure on page 23 to transfer files to the player. NOTE: Video files cannot be transferred using WMP 10. The video files must be “dragged and dropped” directly. Please see the note on the bottom of page 23 for additional information. For Windows ME, Windows 2000 or Windows XP (without WMP 10), transfer video, photo and/or music files as follows:
1. Connect your player to the USB port on your computer as shown on page 7.
2. A "Removable Disk" window will automatically pop-up on your computer screen.
3. To add more files and songs to your player, simply drag and drop MP3 or WMA files from anywhere on your computer into the "Removable Disk" window.
IMPORTANT: A WMA file with DRM 9 or 10 will not play back if you directly drag and drop it into the "Removable Disk" window. You must use WMP 10 to transfer copy-protected audio files as described on page 23. During the file transfer, do not unplug the device from the computer until the display shows "Ok to remove". DO NOT operate the unit until "Loading" disappears from the screen after disconnecting from the computer.
