navigation and user controls. Below is a
listing of all button functions and how
to use your device with AudibleŽ
content.

playback. Pressing play will resume
from the point where you left off in
an AudibleŽ file.

"Rew" and "FF" will rewind or advance
the player.

FF control button once will advance
the player either to the next "program
number" or advance the player a few
seconds in a single program.
- Pressing and holding either button
down will move through the title up to
32X the normal play speed (the speed
of advance and rewind increases the
longer the button is pressed).
- The exact location of the file is
shown on the display.
- The number of programs on the
player are shown in the lower left
corner of the display.
Volume up (+)
button: Pressing during playback
increases volume.
Volume down
(-) button: Pressing during
playback decreases volume.
Section Browse
Button: The Section Browse Button
on the lower left side will either
advance (+) or rewind (-) the title to
the next section in the book. Depending
on the player file location pushing the
"Section Browse Button" will advance or
rewind the player a few minutes to over
an hour.
Section
navigation up (+) button: During
AudibleŽ playback, pressing will proceed
to next section within file (if
present).
Section
navigation down (-) button:
During AudibleŽ playback, pressing will
proceed to the previous section within
file (if present).
Mode button:
The Mode button allows users to
customize their listening preferences.
To bookmark your
AudibleŽ audio file: You may
place these bookmarks at important parts
of an audio program that you would like
to navigate back to later. To place a
bookmark simply press and hold the
"Play" button until you see the bookmark
number on the LCD screen. You may place
up to 20 bookmarks in AudibleŽ programs
on your Otis Digital Audio Player. To
navigate back to saved bookmarks, simply
press and hold the "Mode" button. The
AudibleŽ program will begin playing from
the first saved bookmark. If you would
like to navigate to other bookmarks,
press the "Fast Forward" or "Rewind"
buttons within five (5) seconds
following the playback of the AudibleŽ
program at the first bookmark.
To delete your
AudibleŽ audio bookmark: AudibleŽ
Mode is used to delete bookmarks and
playback position marks within AudibleŽ
audio files. To begin, press the Mode
button, and with the FF button navigate
to the "AudibleŽ "setting. Press the
Mode button to select and enter the
AudibleŽ setting. Use the FF button to
select between B-Mark Del and Backup
Del, and then press the Mode button once
more to enter the desired setting. Use
the "B-Mark Del" mode to delete
bookmarks by pressing mode once you have
chosen "B-Mark Del." You will see "Erase?" and by pressing the mode button
once more, all bookmarks will be
deleted. You may use the "Backup Del"
setting to delete the Playback position,
which means that when you begin playing
the AudibleŽ audio file again, you will
start from the very beginning of the
program, not where you last left off.
Cassette Adapter:
Insert the adapter plug into the
headphone jack at the top of the Otis
Digital Audio Player. Put the adapter
into the cassette deck as you would a
cassette. You can now listen to you
eAudio book through your car speakers.
Batteries:
The Otis player takes two AAA batteries.
The batteries in the device may not be
"fresh" and you will probably have to
insert fresh AAA batteries to finish the
book. Just remove the leather cover,
open the battery compartment on the back
of the device, and insert two fresh AAA
batteries. We do sell fresh batteries at
the Circulation Desk for $1 each. For
the sake of the environment, we suggest
you use your own rechargeable AAA
batteries. Also for the sake of the
environment, we have included a DC power
adapter to use in your car.
