Connecting the USB
(external storage) device
Caution
• Be sure to turn the player's power off before
connecting or disconnecting external storage
devices.
• Use empty external storage devices (on which
nothing is stored).
• When using an external hard disk as the external
storage device, be sure to turn on the hard disk's
power before turning on the player's power.
• If the external storage device is write-protected, be
sure to disable the write-protection.
• When connecting the USB cable, hold onto the plug,
set the plug in the proper direction for the port and
insert it horizontally.
• Placing excessive loads on the plug may result in
poor contact, making it impossible to write data on
the external storage device.
• The player is equipped with an internal storage. This
internal storage cannot be used when an external
storage device is connected.
• When a USB memory device or external hard disk is
connected and the player's power is turned on, do not
unplug the power cord.
