1 Charge your player
Open the USB jack and SD slot cover, then connect the supplied USB cable to your player and PC. Your player appears as Audio Player on your PC.
You must charge your player for at least 4 hours before using it for the first time. Normally it takes about 4 hours to fully charge the player.
n Note
• Only charge the player using the supplied USB cable.
• If the player is connected to the PC via a hub, the hub must be self-powered to charge your player.
• When the player is connected to the PC, all buttons are disabled.
Lithium Battery Safety Instructions
• Do not burn or bury batteries. Do not puncture or crush. Do not disassemble.
• Do not dispose of lithium batteries in the trash. Recycle at your local RadioShack store.
• If the electrolyte in the cells should get on your skin, thoroughly wash with soap and water. If in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with cool water. Immediately seek medical attention.
• Use only chargers rated for lithium cells. Be sure the charger’s voltage and current settings are correct for the battery pack being charged.
• Charge batteries on a fireproof surface away from flammable items or liquids.
• Do not charge inside an automobile, especially while driving.
• Batteries should NEVER be left unattended while charging. Only adults should charge the batteries.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for charging the product and do not charge longer than recommended. Unplug the charger when the battery is charged.
