standby mode, and the screen turns off. In standby mode, press any button to turn on the
screen again.
While the player is in standby mode, if there is no operation for about 4 hours, the player

You cannot operate the player when it is connected to a computer. Disconnect the USB
cable before operating the player.
After connecting to a computer with the USB cable, the resume information of the last
played song, video, photo, etc., is cleared. Reselect the desired content from the list screen.
The player consumes battery power very slightly even when it is in standby mode.
Therefore, the player might unexpectedly turn off completely, depending on the power
remaining in the battery.
