Earphones 
Connect the supplied earphones to the earphone jack on the top of the player (see page 
. Any quality audio 
earphones with a 3.5mm stereo plug can be used with the m250/m500; however, DO NOT use an earphone from a 
cell or cordless phone because the wiring is different and can damage the player. 
USB Cable 
The m250/m500 communicates with your computer over a Mini USB cable using USB 2.0 protocols, with a transfer 
rate of up to 480 Mbps. The player must be connected using the included USB cable to the USB port on your 
computer to transfer music or files to and from the player and your computer. The Mini USB connector plugs into the 
port on the bottom of the player (see pages 
). The port is covered by a soft plastic plug attached to the 
player. Use care in opening it and do not pull too hard on the plug. 
Whenever you plug the player into the cable while the computer is on, the player turns on and establishes a link with 
the computer. You can then use your music software or file manager to transfer songs and data to and from the 
player.  
When you are done, be sure to stop the link to the player to avoid corrupting files. In Windows, an icon is displayed on 
the taskbar like the one shown below. Click on it and a dialog box will appear asking you which device you want to 
stop. Click on the line for USB Mass Storage Device that has a removable drive listed below it, because that is how 
the player appears to Windows. For a Mac, follow the procedures specified by your operating system to stop or eject a 
USB device.
