Please take the time to read though this manual. There are many
things that this device can do that you may not be aware of.
2.1 Plugging in the AC Adapter
• Use only the included ARCHOS charger/adapter.
• Before using for the first time, charge the batteries completely. The
charge indicator (CHG) light just below the navigation pad will start to
blink when the battery is charged.
• You may use the Archos Video AV400 while its battery is charging, but
it will then take longer before the battery is completely charged.
2.2 Turning on the AV400
•
Hold the PLAY/ON button for 4 seconds. The green “On”
indicator light will turn on. Be patient, it will take about 8 seconds for the
operating system to boot up.
•
If the unit shuts off after holding the ON button for several seconds, plug
in the Archos adapter/charger to make sure the batteries get charged.
2.3 Shutting off the AV400 and Battery saving features
To shut off the unit, press and hold the STOP/ESC/OFF button for 3 seconds.
In the Power menu [
Setup
Power: Battery Operation
] there is a
Power Off parameter. It is factory set to 2 minutes. Thus, if
your AV400 is idle for 2 minutes, it will shut off. This setting can
be changed from one to nine minutes.
In the Power menu [
Setup
Power: Battery Operation
]
there is a Backlight Off parameter to save battery power (the
lighting of the screen consumes a lot of the battery power).
It is factory set to 30 seconds. That is, if there are no buttons
pressed, the screen will shut off in order to save battery life.
To turn the screen back on, just click once on any button. See
section 18.5 for a complete explanation.
