NOMAD Jukebox displays "Best of
Bach" when I search for an album
name that starts with "A"
Cause
The search result is normal.
Solution
NOMAD Jukebox searches and displays
the nearest match that starts with "A". In
this case, since there is no album that starts
with "A", the next nearest match that starts
with "B" is displayed.
I inserted four brand new alkaline
batteries but there is less than one
hour of playback on my NOMAD
Jukebox
Cause
Due to the high power consumption of
NOMAD Jukebox, it is not recommended
to use alkaline batteries in NOMAD
Jukebox as the batteries will be drained
away much faster than rechargeable
NiMH batteries.
Solution
If you use NOMAD Jukebox in the
outdoors frequently, purchase additional
Creative NiMH batteries, and ensure that
you charge them before going outdoors.
NOMAD Jukebox experienced some
problems when using other types of
rechargeable batteries such as NiCd
or rechargeable akaline batteries
Cause
Other types of rechargeable batteries
cannot be used.
Solution
Use Creative NiMH batteries to ensure
optimum performance for your NOMAD
Jukebox.
