2.5 Foreign Character Sets
Starting with version 1.2 of the Operating System (OS), you have the possibility to display
your  le names, folder names, and MP3 ID3 tags in various character sets (ex: Korean,
Simpli ed Chinese, etc.). You can  nd the language  les CodePage_name.AFZ on the
included Installation CD in the folder PC or on the Archos website under the heading
Software. If, for example, you would like to have the Korean language display, then you
would copy the  le CP949.AFZ into the folder /system on the AV300. Disconnect your
AV300 from your computer and then restart it. File names, folder names, and ID3 tags
written using the Microsoft® codepage for the language will now be displayed in that
character set. Only one .AFZ can be used at a time, thus you should only put one .AFZ
le into the /system folder. When an .AFZ language  le is used, the interface language
will automatically be reset to English.
2.6 Charging the Batteries
Use ONLY an Archos charger/adapter that is speci ed for the AV300. Other chargers or
adapters may damage the AV300. The green CHG indicator lights up to indicate that
the external adapter is connected. The batteries will charge automatically when the
AC adapter/charger is plugged in. This light will stay on even when the batteries are fully
charged. You should charge the AV300 for four hours (without use) or six hours (using it while
charging) to get a full charge. Once charged, you can get up to 10 hours* of MP3 music
playback time and up to 3  hours* of AVI video playback time (on the built-in screen) from
the batteries. The AV300 is made with integrated batteries which are designed to last for the
life of the AV300. This means that you will not have to change them. If, in the exceptional
case, the batteries need changing, this should only be done by an Archos technician.
