•
Place the Walkman firmly into the cradle.
If the cradle is connected to a wall outlet, the Walkman will be charged from
the wall outlet.
Even if the cradle is not connected to a wall outlet, the Walkman can be charged via
the USB cable. If the cradle is connected to a laptop computer which is not connected
to a wall outlet, the Walkman will deplete the battery of the laptop computer.
A Walkman will not be recognized by a computer if the cradle is connected to
the computer by the DC charging cord.
If the Walkman is disconnected from the cradle while data is being transferred
from the computer, attach the Walkman to the cradle and transfer the data again.
Do not disconnect the USB cable, DC charging cord and AC power cord while
transferring data from the computer; otherwise the data transfer will be
interrupted. If this occurs, detach the Walkman from the cradle, and transfer
the data after attaching the Walkman to the cradle again.
