7.  Why  do  I  not  hear  anything  when  the  PLAY  button  is 

pressed?

–  Please check if hold (key lock) is on or off.
  It should be off.
–  check  whether  files  have  been  stored  in  the  built-in  flash  

memory.

  Press the Play button to try again.
–  check the earphone connection. 
  If necessary, replace with another one.
–  check the volume level and see if it has been set too low.
–  the file format may be incorrect. 
  only mP3, Wma and ogg files can be played. 
  audio cd tracks have to be converted into mP3 format first be-

fore being copied to the player. 

  use converting software like ”cdex”, for example. 

8.  How can I copy DRM protected © files to the player?

–  drm protected files will only be played if you copy them to the 

player by using ms™ Windows media Player

®

 or by using the 

music management software provided by the online music store 
where you purchased the files.

  Please refer to the respective software FaQs.

9.  Why does my player not continue playback after a certain 

audio/photo/video file?

–  the following file might be damaged or ©-protected.
  delete this file from the player.

10. Why does my player not work any more after a few days?

–  maybe the battery is empty. Please reload it.
–  If this doesn‘t work please update your firmware.

11. How  can  I  recover  the  player  when  firmware  upgrading 

failed?

–  1.  start  the  provided  utility  software  ”Firmware  download”  on 

your Pc. 

  2. slide and hold the Power switch into the direction of the on 

oFF symbol, while you connect the player to your computer.

  While  still  holding  the  Power  switch,  please  wait  for  about  

60 seconds, until the utility software will detect the player again.

  3. When the player is being detected, please start the firmware 

update. 

  now the player should be able to work again.

12. Why is there no display though the music track is being 

played?

–  there are no required mP3 Id data available for the respective 

music track.

  you can supplement those by using, for example, the freeware 

program WinamP.

  If  you  intend  to  do  so,  please  refer  to  the  respective  software  

instructions.

13. The player is not responding to keys while playing music.

–  check if the hold switch is in hold position. slide the hold switch 

back to turn off the hold function.

14. What causes the sequence of music tracks being played?

–  the audio tracks in a folder are played in alphabetical order.
  to maintain the alphabetical order, whole music albums should 

be copied as a folder, not as single tracks .

–  to  create  a  desired  sequence,  precede  each  file  name  before  

copying with, for example, track numbers „01” - „99” or „1 01”, 
„1 02” ... „3 01”. the audio tracks will be played in numerical or-
der, then. Please notice that the internal sorting algorithm uses 
the first 8 characters of the filename. so please don‘t put track 
numbers on the end of the filename.
