5 Disk Encryption Most MP3 player users are not willing to allow others access to their personal information. Before letting some else use the MP3, all sensitive files should be deleted in order to preserve security which requires additional action on the owner s part; (storing files, transferring them to the MP3 player and then deleting them to protect them from others). This MP3 player offers a comfortable solution to this problem. Using the tools included, the internal drive of this player can be partitioned into multiple drives. Select the partition in which to store your sensitive files and protect the entire partition by setting up a password. The partitions will be recognized by the operating system (Windows 2000 SP4 and higher) as two separate drives. Note: to allow the system to show two different drives, select under SYSTEM SETTINGS / ONLINE MODE either Single Normal Disk or Single Encrypted Disk Note: You can only encrypt one of the two drives. Files stored to an encrypted drive can only be accessed when using the correct password. Partitioning the Drive: 20 1. Connect the player to the PC via USB Port 2. Run the MP3 Disk Tool 3. At first the tool to format the drive will appear. Open the register PARTITION AND CRYPT and select a suitable size for the encrypted drive. 4. Activate the Option (User Name and Password). 5. Enter a password in the field; NEW PASSWORD 6. Reentering the password in the field; CONFIRM NEW PASSWORD
7. Click START to start partitioning the drive. 8. Reboot the system when prompted to do so. 9. After the system has rebooted, two new drives should appear (Windows 2000 SP4 and higher) 10. Open the encrypted drive. You will see three files: a normal file and two hidden files. The used memory space will register only 300 kb. 11. Open the normal file and run the RdiskDecrypt.exe. 12. Enter the User Name and Password in the spaces provided. When the user name and password are correct the drive will open!!! 21
Note: You must reenter the user name and password each time the player is connected to the PC before being able to enter the encrypted drive. Notes: We recommend backing up the drive before partitioning. All data will be erased during partitioning. Warning: Keep your User Name and Password in a safe place. Loosing or forgetting either the User Name or password will result in not being able to access the encrypted drive. In such a case, you will have to delete both partitions in order to create one major partition. 22

9 Warranty Conditions The following conditions comprise the requirements and scope of our warranty conditions and do not affect our legal and contractual warranty obligations. 9.1 We offer a warranty on our products in accordance with the following conditions: 1. We will remedy free of charge any product damage or defect that is proven to be based on a manufacturing fault, provided the end user reports this immediately upon noticing it and within a period of 24 months following the date of purchase. The warranty does not cover batteries and other parts, which are considered consumables, parts that break easily such as glass or plastic or defects based on normal wear and tear. There is no warranty obligation in the event of marginal differences compared to the target appearance and workmanship provided these have a negligible effect on the product's fitness for use, in the event of damage caused by chemical or electrochemical effects, by water or generally from abnormal conditions. 2. The warranty will be performed in such a way that we shall decide whether to repair the defective parts or to replace them with working parts free of charge. AXDIA reserves the right to exchange the product for a replacement product of equal value if the product that is sent in cannot be repaired within a reasonable time or at reasonable cost. The product can also be exchanged for a different model of the same value. Requests cannot be made for repairs to be carried out on site. Parts that have been replaced or exchanged become our property. 3. The warranty claim does not apply if repairs or other work is carried out by unauthorized persons or if our products are equipped with additional parts or accessories that are not approved for our products. 4. Warranties that have been activated do not cause the warranty period to be extended, nor do they trigger a new warranty period. The warranty period for any replacement parts installed ends with the warranty period for the entire product. 5. Any other or further claims are excluded, especially those for replacement due to damage caused outside of the product, provided there is no obligatory legal liability. We therefore accept no liability for accidental, indirect or other consequential damage of any kind, which leads to usage restrictions, data loss, loss of earnings or interruption to business. 26
