Important

If a USB ERR message lights in the display, it may mean that the power requirements of the USB device are too high for this player, or that the device is incompatible. Try the following:

Switch the player off, then on again.

Reconnecting the USB device with the player switched off.

Selecting to another input source (like DVD/CD), then back to USB.

Using a dedicated AC adapter (supplied with the device) for USB power.

If this doesn’t remedy the problem, it is likely your USB device is incompatible.
