Rechargeable battery precautions

- Do not toss the rechargeable battery into a fire, and do not heat up the battery. Doing so could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.

- Do not subject the rechargeable battery to strong impact forces, such as stabbing it with sharp objects (a nail, etc.), tapping it with a hammer, or stepping on it. Doing so could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.

- Do not place foreign objects inside the Portable Speaker Dock. Doing so could cause fires and electrical shocks.

- Do not charge, use, or place the Portable Speaker Dock in high-temperature locations such as near heaters and stove burners. In areas exposed to direct sunlight, or inside a car on a hot day. Doing so could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.

Such actions could also affect the performance and shorten the life of the internal rechargeable battery.

- Stop using the Portable Speaker Dock immediately, and contact the sales outlet or DENON in the event that abnormal oxders or heat generation occurs while using, charging, or storing the Portable Speaker Dock, or if other abnormalities such as discoloration, etc., are detected.

• Always observe the following precautions:

- Do not place the Portable Spesker Dock in a microwave oven or in a high-pressure container.

- Do not place the Portable Speaker Dock on top of an electromagnetic cooker. - Do not attempt to recharge the internal rechargeable battery by connecting it to a power outlet or a car's cigarette lighter socket.

- Strictly observe the recharging procedure and conditions specified by DENON.

- If fluid should leak from the rechargeable battery and get into the eyes, do not rub the eyes. Instead, rinse the eyes thoroughly with tap water, etc., and see a doctor without delay for treatment. Leaving the eyes untreated could cause vision impairment.

- Do not use the Portable Speaker Dock near medical devices, automatic doors, or fire alarms, etc. Signals from the Portable Speaker Dock could interfere with the operation of those devices, possibly causing malfunctions and accidents.

- If recharging fails to complete even though the prescribed recharging time period has elapsed, stop the recharging operation. Continuing to recharge the battery could cause battery heat generation, battery fires, and battery rupture.

IEEE 802.11b

This is one wireless LAN standard set by the B02 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States. It uses the 2.4 GHz band usable freely without a radio frequency license (ISM band), enabling communications at a maximum speed of 11 Mbps.

- The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate. IEEE 802.11g

This is another wireless LAN standard set by the 802 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States, and is compatible with IEEE 802.11b. It also uses the 2.4 GHz band, but enables communications at a maximum speed of 54 Mbps.

- The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate.

iTunes

iTunes is the name of the multimedia player provided by Apple Inc. It enables management and playback of multimedia contents including music and movies. iTunes supports many main file formats including AAC, WAV, and MP3.

M

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)

This is an internationally standardized audio data compression scheme, using the "MPEG-1" video compression standard. It compresses the data volume to about one eleventh its original size while maintaining sound quality equivalent to a music CD.

MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), MPEG-2, MPEG-4

These are the names for digital compression format standards used for the encoding of video and audio. Video standards include "MPEG-1 Video", "MPEG-2 Video", "MPEG-4 Visual", "MPEG-4 AVC". Audio standards include "MPEG-1 Audio", "MPEG-2 Audio", "MPEG-4 AAC".

N

Network Names

(SSID: Security Set Identifier)

When forming wireless LAN networks, groups are formed to prevent interference, data theft, etc. This grouping is done by "SSID" or "Security Set Identifiers". For further security, a WEP key is set and signal transfer is not possible unless the SSID and WEP key match.

P

Protection Circuit

This is a function to prevent damage to devices within the power supply when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or temperature for any reason.

In this unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit enters standby mode when an abnormality occurs.

s

Sampling frequency

Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in digitized format (producing a digital signal).

The number of readings taken in one second is called the "sampling frequency". The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the original.

T

TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)

This is a network key used for WPA. The encryption algorithm is RC4, the same as for WEP, but the security level is increased by changing the network key used for encryption for each packet.

WEP Key (Network Key)

This is key information used for encrypting data when conducting data transfer. On this unit, the same WEP key is used for data encryption and decryption, so the same WEP key must be set on both devices in order for communications to be established between them.

Wi-Fi®

Wi-Fi Certification assures tested and proven interoperability by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a group certifying interoperability among wireless LAN devices.

Windows Media DRM

This is a copyright protection technology developed by Microsoft.

Content providers are using the digital rights management technology for Windows Media contained in this device (WM-DRMI) to protect the integrity of their content (Secure Content) so that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated. This device uses WM-DRM software to play Secure Content (WM-DRM Software). If the security of the WM-DRM Software in this device has been compromised, owners of Secure Content (Secure Content Owners) may request that Microsoft revoke the WM-DRM Software's right to acquire new licenses to copy, display and/or play Secure Content. Revocation does not alter the WM-DRM Software's ability to play unprotected content. A list of revoked WM-DRM Software is sent to your device whenever you download a license for Secure Content from the Internet or from a PC. Microsoft may, in conjunction with such license, also download revocation list onto your device on behalf of Secure Content Owners.

Windows Media Player Ver.11 or later

This is a media player distributed free of charge by Microsoft Corporation.

It can play playlists created with Ver.11 or later of Windows Media Player, as well as WMA, DRM WMA, WAV, and other files.

WMA (Windows Media Audio)

This is audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation.

WMA data can be encoded using Windows Media ^® Player Ver.7, 7.1, Windows Media ^® Player for Windows ^® XP and Windows Media ^® Player 9 Series.

To encode WMA files, only use applications authorized by Microsoft Corporation. If you use an unauthorized application, the file may not work properly.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

This is a security standard established by the Wi-Fi Alliance. In addition to the conventional SSID (network name) and WEP key (network key), it also uses a user identification function and encrypting protocol for stronger security.

WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2)

This is a new version of the WPA established by the Wi-Fi Alliance, compatible with more secure AES encryption.

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK (Pre-shared Key)

This is a simple authentication system for mutual authentication when a preset character string matches on the wireless LAN access point and client.

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)

This is a standard drawn up by the Wi-Fi Alliance to ease the task of setting up wireless LAN connections and configuring security.

There are two methods: push-button and PIN (Personal Identification Number) code.
