1.4 Powering On Victor Reader
To turn the player On, press and hold the
Power
key. You will hear a beep and a welcome
message.
To turn the player Off, press and hold the
Power
key again. You will hear two beeps indicating
the player is powering Off.
1.5 Battery
The battery is rated for approximately 500 recharge cycles. Under normal conditions the fully
charged battery can last up to 10 hours for continuous play of DAISY books. However the battery
playtime may be reduced in the following cases:
If the battery is charged for less than 4 hours.
Extensive use of book navigation commands.
Non DAISY CDs take more power and play for about 3 hours on battery power.
High Volume Level or High Speed reading.
The battery will automatically recharge whenever the player is plugged to AC power. The player
can be used while recharging. If the player is powered Off, the power LED indicator will blink if the
battery is recharging. A full recharge takes up to 4 hours.
NOTE:
When the player is not connected to a power outlet, and staying in pause mode for more
than 30 minutes, it will shut Off automatically to save the battery.
1.6 Inserting or ejecting a CD
Insert your CD in the slot located on the front side of the player. Then gently push the CD
forward. A motorized mechanism will slide the CD in the drive. After a few seconds, Victor Reader
will announce the title of the book and after a beep will start reading the book. If you accidentally
insert a CD upside down, it will be ejected within 15 seconds without damage.
To eject a CD, simply press the
Eject
key, located to right of, and slightly up from, the
Fast
Forward
key. A motorized mechanism will gently eject the CD from the drive.
NOTE:
The Eject key can only work when the Victor Reader is powered On.
