features of your new MP3 Player

is all this and more. Its compact silhouette takes up the tiniest space
in your pocket, and its state-of-the-art technology delivers rich
sound. You’ll love your new MP3 player, whether you’re exercising,
downloading your favourite tunes, or even listening to FM Radio.
Use it once, and you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.
USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE!
The MP3 player is an USB-integrated
product with no need for a USB cable, which
offers you fast data transfer and convenient
recharging.
FITNESS MODE FOR YOUR HEALTH
GUIDE!
In this mode, you can check your expected
calorie burn while exercising.
USER BUTTON ENABLED STUDY MODE
You can use the user button to set button
operation to your preference.

damage to your hearing.
If you are exposed to sound louder than 85db for an extended time, you may
adversely affect your hearing. The louder the sound is, the more seriously damaged

noise is approximately 80db).
You are strongly advised to set the volume level to medium (the medium level is
usually less than 2/3 of the maximum).
If you feel a ringing in the ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the
earphones or headphones.
