Changing the settings
You can save battery power by setting as follows.
Turn off the player manually
If you press and hold the OPTION/PWR OFF button, the player enters standby
mode and the screen turns off to save battery power. Furthermore, if standby
mode continues for more than about a day, the player turns completely off
automatically.
Adjust data format and bit rate
Playing time will vary, as battery charge can be affected by the format and bit
rate of songs, videos or photos that are played.
