Rio Karma
What is the maximum
number of tracks I can
put on the Rio player?
• The number of tracks you can store on the player depends on the size of the
tracks and the amount of available space on the player. The About Rio Karma
menu lists the total amount of space, the amount of free space, and the number
of tracks on the Rio player.
What kind of batteries can
I use with the Rio Karma?
• The Rio Karma uses non-removable rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.
Will the Rio Karma play
Variable Bitrate (VBR)
files?
• Yes. Because there are many standards for VBR files, it cannot be guaranteed
that every encoding software package will properly function with the Rio Karma.
VBR files that do not comply to standards may lack track time, fast forward, and/
or rewind capabilities.
Where is the battery
indicator on the Rio
Karma?
• The battery indicator on the Rio Karma is located in the top-right corner of the
display. The segments in the battery icon show the remaining battery power. The
illumination of all segments indicates a fully charged battery. Non-illuminated
segments indicate a run down battery. The battery indicator blinks when less
than 20% of the charge on the battery remains.
Can I replace the battery
in my Rio Karma?
•No.
The drive stops spinning
during playback. Is this
normal?
• Yes. It is normal for the drive to stop spinning during playback. Stopping the
drive is part of the player’s battery life management system. When the drive is
stopped, the Rio Karma conserves power and plays tracks from a memory buffer.
