??CD SECTION

??INTERNAL MEMORY SECTION

Mounted capacity 4 GB

??AC ADAPTOR SECTION

??PHOTO SECTION

??SPEAKER SECTION

??GENERAL

Power consumption in standby mode??: Approx. 0.3 W

?? Without iPod charge

???Speci???cations are subject to change without notice.

???Some characters are not displayed on this unit due to the restrictions of font data.

???Since the internal memory includes area that contains management information such as ???le system, the actual capacity that can be used is less. Also, the memory capacity in general is calculated as 1 GB =1,000,000,000 bytes, however, on this unit, it is calculated as 1 GB = 1,024 ?? 1,024 ?? 1,024= 1,073,741,824 bytes. Therefore, the displayed capacity is less than the general value.

Auto power save: This unit is equipped with the Auto power save function that automatically reduces the power consumption when operations such as audio playback, media insertion/removal, etc. are not performed approx. 10 minutes.

The LCD display on the display part is made with high-precision technology employed, but black dots may sometimes appear on the LCD display or the display may always light (with red, blue and green dots). This is not a malfunction. The pixels on the LCD display are managed with more than 99.99% of high accuracy, however, the pixel de???ciency may occur within 0.01% of probability. We assure you that these dots are not recorded on the SD card or internal memory.

Maintenance

Unplug the AC power supply cord from the household AC outlet and wipe it using a soft and dry cloth.

???When the dirt is heavy, wring water out of a wet cloth to wipe the dirt and then wipe with a dry cloth.

???Do not use solvents including benzine, thinner, alcohol, kitchen detergent, etc. This might cause the exterior case to be deformed or the coating to come off.

???Before using chemically treated cloth, read the instructions that come with the cloth carefully.
