protection and is available to help increase battery life.
The CD seems to stop during playback, is this normal?
Yes. This is part of the skip protection and battery life protection. When the CD is stopped, the RioVolt
plays songs from memory. This serves as absolute shock protection during this time as the disc is not even
spinning!
How do I encode, "rip", the songs from my CDs so I can listen to them

How do I burn my own CDs?
There a number of programs available on the market that can be used to create CDs of your own. The
online Help documents available within those programs contain instructions on how to create CDs. You
should also refer to the documentation that came with your CD burner and its accompanying software for
instructions on its use in any platform.
