Playing audio files

You can play audio files using the Audio Player. You can also use other

applications during playback.

Charge the battery before starting playback.

Notes

•The automatic shut-off does not function during playback.

• If the battery power level runs low, playback stops automatically. In this case,

however, you can still use other applications such as Memo Pad or Address Book.

Charge the battery before it becomes completely empty.

1After making sure that the write protect tab is not set to

LOCK, insert the Memory Stick media into the Memory Stick

slot.

Note

OpenMG Jukebox, use MG Memory Stick media.

2Connect the headphones.

3On the home screen, rotate the Jog Dial navigator to select

Audio Player and then press the Jog Dial navigator.

Or, tap the Audio Player icon on the home screen.

Audio Player starts and then reads the TOC information including the

song name, artist name, etc., of the Memory Stick media.

Do not remove the Memory Stick media at this time. If you do so, the

audio data may be damaged and a malfunction may occur.

Notes

•Depending on the number of songs stored in the Memory Stick media, it may

take several seconds to read the TOC data. You cannot operate Audio Player

while it is reading the TOC information including the song name, artist name,

etc.; this is not a malfunction.

•If the write protect tab of the Memory Stick media is set to LOCK, Audio Player

cannot play some songs.
