Getting Started Using the RCA M6316PL MP3 Player

Before you Begin 

Back up your data! As with any portable player, you must back up the drive regularly. The manufacturer is not responsible for lost data.

Computer system requirements:

• Pentium III 500MHz or higher recommended
• Windows® XP (service pack 1 or higher) or Windows Vista™ or Windows® 7
• Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher with Internet access
• Windows Media Player 10 or higher
• 250MB or more free hard disk space for the software
• 128MB RAM (256MB recommended)
• CD-ROM drive capable of digital audio extraction
• USB port (2.0 recommended)
• Sound card

Connecting to the computer:

• Connect the player to your computer with the USB cable provided. The player will turn on automatically.
• The player will be connected in MSC (Mass Storage Class) mode. It will appear as a drive letter on your computer and behave as a detachable drive for file transfer in one or both directions.
• The RCA easyRip™ Media Software installer is stored on the player. Go to My Computer (XP users) /Go to Computer (Vista and 7 users) in the Start menu, find and open the drive letter associated with the player (i.e. RCA MP3) and then double-click the rcaeasyrip_setup.exe file to launch the installer.
• The software installer can be deleted from the player after installation to free up more storage space*.

* The latest software can be downloaded from www.rcaaudiovideo.com.

Notes:

• It may take several seconds for the player to be detected. Click View -> Refresh in My Computer or Windows Explorer to make sure the player has been detected.
• The player is capable of transferring files at USB 2.0. If a USB 2.0 port is available on your computer, use it to connect to your player. The player is still backward compatible with the older USB 1.1 ports; however, you will not be able to take full advantage of the potential speed increase.

IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the USB connection from either the PC or the player during the software installation.

Charging the player: The player charges automatically every time you connect it to your computer. To fully charge the player, make sure your computer is on and the player is connected for at least 3 hours. Refer to the battery level icon on the display to check the battery level. Recharge the player when the icon is empty.
