• You cannot play MP3/WMA files that are in this unit through the PC, even when they are connected with the USB cable.

• After downloading music data from the PC, the player automatically begins play once the USB cable is removed. Stop play if desired.

• In the FM RADIO and IC RECORDER folders, files from Tuner001 to Tuner099 and Voice001 to Voice099 are sequentially ordered in a structured system. Using the IC RECORDER as an example, assume the maximum number of recordings is made up to Voice099, if you delete Voice005 and Voice016, both of those numbers become blank numbers. At this point, if you add a recording, the file becomes Voice005 and the following recording becomes Voice016.
