1.  Make sure both the USB connector and the SwiMP3 are 
     completely dry before connecting.
2.  Pull the cap off the USB connector located between the 
     two bone conduction speakers.
3.  Insert the USB connector into one of the USB ports on
     you computer.  If the SwiMP3 doesn’t seem to be recognized
     by your computer, try another USB port or a USB 
     extension cable.
4.  The SwiMP3’s battery will charge through the USB port.  
     Let the SwiMP3 charge until the green light stops blinking. 
     A full charge should take approx. 3 hours, and provide
     8 hours of playback.
5.  Be sure to safely remove the SwiMP3 from your operating
     system before unplugging the USB connector.

1.  Mac users can load the SwiMP3 from their iTunes library.  In 
most cases your songs will need to be converted to MP3 format, 
songs from the iTunes store can not be converted.  To create MP3s, 
change your “Import Using” option in the preferences to MP3 
encoder.  Then import a CD into your library or highlight a song 
from your library and select “Convert Selection to MP3” from the 
Advanced menu.  Converting a song will create a duplicate.  Since 
you will have two copies of any songs you convert you can check 
the format of a song by highlighting it, and selecting “Get Info” from 
the File menu.  To load songs onto the SwiMP3, simply drag 
them from your iTunes library to the NONAME drive on your 
desktop.  When deleting songs from your SwiMP3, you will 
have to empty your trash before the space will become free again.

2.  Windows users can copy MP3 and WMA tracks to the 
Removable Disk in “My Computer” or use the SwiMP3 Media 
Manager which can be downloaded from  finisinc.com.

A.  Importing Existing Songs - The first time you run the SwiMP3 
Media Manager you will be prompted to “Add Folders.”  If you 
already have songs in MP3 or WMA format, you will want to import 
them into your library, if you do not yet have any songs you will want 
to click “Cancel”.  To import songs you will need to select the 
folders where your MP3 and WMA files are stored, or just click 
“OK” to have your entire C drive searched for songs to be added to 
your library.  Limiting the folders you select to only those which 
have songs will speed up this process.  To import songs in the future 
select “Add/Rescan Tracks to the Library” from the File menu.

 to be imported as, and which songs from the album you 

 

 want to import.  Uncheck the box next to any songs you 

 

 do not wish to import.  By default, the format will be MP3 

 

 and all songs will be selected to import; only advanced 

 

 users should attempt to change the way the songs are 

 

 named and where the songs are saved.  Once you have 

 

 made your selections click “OK”.
