1. General Instructions
1.1. Product care
In addition to the information in the accompanying Warranty, Legal & Safety Notice, remember that your ARCHOS is an electronic product that needs to be treated with care:
Do not subject it to shock or vibration.
Do not subject it to heat; keep it cool.
Keep it away from water and excessively humid areas.
Keep it away from high electromagnetic fields.
Do not open it up. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening it will void your warranty.
1.2. First steps
1.2.1. Charging The Battery
Before using your ARCHOS for the first time, completely charge its battery. Connect the supplied power charger/adapter/ USB power adapter.
Attention: Use ONLY the supplied ARCHOS charger/adapter/USB adapter on your device.
For the Flash Memory models: Use only the included USB cable to charge your device. Do not expect your device to charge properly when connected to your computer.
The ARCHOS will turn on and start charging. The battery icon will animate a blue "filling" action with a lightning bolt and the power/charge indicator light will remain solid.
When not plugged into a power adapter, the battery icon will display the amount of battery power available.
IMPORTANT: When the battery is completely empty and you plug in your device,
- The charging indicator light will turn on then start to blink within few seconds. The indicator light blinking rapidly means that the device is charging but does not yet have
enough power to start. This charging when off may take some time. Once the device has charged enough to start, it will switch on and display the ARCHOS boot logo.
- If the charging indicator does not blink after few seconds, it could mean that the battery is over discharged.
