Charging the battery

Your MP3 Player has an integrated rechargeable Li-ion battery. It is  
recommended to fully charge the player before using it for the first  
time. Recharge the battery by connecting the player to a computer  
using the included USB 2.0 cable. Charging time is between 3-5  
hours, depending if the player is powered off or working. To keep the  
battery in good condition, we recommend not charging it for more

add up to 8 GB of additional memory to your MP3 Player.

player, with the with the metal contacts facing towards the back  
of the player, and gently push it in until it clicks. Do not apply  
excessive force, as this may damage your MP3 Player and Mini  
SD card.

months, and always keep the battery charge above 50%.

Do not use force while inserting or removing the Mini SD card.
