than that. It allows you to view pictures, text,
videos and listen to FM radio.
The built-in Bluetooth wireless technology
turns your MP3 player into your own
personal network.
COLOUR LCD SCREEN DESIGN
Vivid colour and images are delivered on the
wide LCD screen.

LONGER PLAY TIME AND SHORTER
DOWNLOADING!
A fully charged battery can play up to 30
hours of music and 5 hours of video (when
using the earphones).
Download times are shorter. Because of its
USB 2.0 capability, the player is much faster
than models with USB 1.1.
ACOUSTIC WONDER
Your new MP3 player has built-in DNSe™
(Digital Natural Sound engine), Samsung’s
unique sound technology created to deliver
richer, deeper sound for an unbelievable
listening experience.

Using Bluetooth wireless, you can connect your player wirelessly to
other Bluetooth devices and exchange data with them, talk hands-free
or enjoy music using a Bluetooth stereo headset.
WHAT IS BLUETOOTH?
Bluetooth is an industry specifi cation that describes how Bluetooth-compliant
stereo headsets, mobile phones, and external devices can easily interconnect
with each other using a short wireless connection.
The Bluetooth device can cause a noise or malfunction, depending on the use
conditions.
Physical signal interference, for instance, if you hold the player in the hand and wear a
stereo headset in your ears.
When a part of the body is in contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the player or
the Bluetooth device.
Electrical variation from electrical jamming by the wall, corner or offi ce partitioning.
Electrical interference from the same frequency-band devices including medical equipment,
microwave oven and wireless LAN.
When pairing the Bluetooth device with the player, make it within as short distance
as possible.
The farther the distance between player and Bluetooth device is, the worse the
quality is. If the distance exceeds the limit, the communications are disconnected.
We do not recommend you use text and picture view modes while listening to
the music with the stereo headset as it can cause deterioration of both player
performance and Bluetooth communications.
Depending on the model of the Bluetooth device, fi les less than 32 kHz can not be
played.
In poor reception-sensitivity areas such as inside an elevator or underground, the
Bluetooth connection may not work properly.
90 _ using bluetooth
Page 91
WHAT IS BLUETOOTH? (Continued)
The maximum distance that enables wireless connection between the player and
the Bluetooth device is 10 m. The connection will be automatically cut off if the
distance is out of this range. Even within this range, the sound quality may be
deteriorated by obstacles such as walls or doors.
When not in use, set the <Bluetooth Mode> to <Off>. If you leave the <Bluetooth
Mode> <On>, the battery usage time is reduced.
NOTE
The Bluetooth features of the player are optimized with Samsung products. If used
with third party products, the Bluetooth features may not work properly.
Do not use the Bluetooth function for illegal purposes (pirated copy, illegal wireless
tapping and communications, etc. for commercial purposes). Samsung is not
CAUTION
responsible for any of these illegal uses and the consequent results.
