Getting Started with Rover
Your SmartDisk Rover is both entertaining and versatile, featuring portable
data storage, an MP3 music player, FM radio, and voice recorder. Let’s
get started quickly by copying some MP3’s from your computer to Rover
and enjoying the music. Later, you can read through the rest of the manual
to learn more about the advanced features of your new companion.
Install the Battery
Install the included AAAbattery by sliding open the battery door on the
back of your Rover with your thumb. Insert the battery, observing the correct
orientation of + and –, and slide the battery cover back in place.
