TIP
GETTING STARTED
Introduction
Once the MP3 unit is positioned in a MADE FOR ME product (sold separately), you can turn the MP3 unit on by pressing the product’s Play button. Lights will flash, and there will be a “tick tock” sound while the MP3 unit powers up. You will then hear a voice prompt announcing the playlist. If nothing happens after you press the Play button, make sure the MP3 unit is securely in place, and the MADE FOR ME product (sold separately) is turned on.
When you position the MP3 unit into a MADE FOR ME product (sold separately) and turn the product off, the MP3 unit automatically powers down.
The MP3 unit will not work, record voice, or turn on unless it is positioned in another MADE FOR ME product (sold separately). The MP3 unit is powered by batteries in MADE FOR ME products, so you never have to worry about charging the MP3 unit!
