How to Charge the Battery on an RCA Opal MP3 Player

The Opal is a series of portable media players sold by RCA. Because the battery in the Opal is not easily replaceable, you will need to charge the device from time to time to continue using it. The Opal is not meant to be plugged into a standard electrical outlet. Much like an iPod, you will need to use your computer to charge the Opal mp3 player.

Instructions

1. Power off the RCA Opal mp3 player. Simply pausing your music or navigating to the main menu page of the Opal will not be sufficient--the player must be shut down to be recharged.

2. Plug the auxiliary end of the USB cord that came with your Opal into the headphones port at the top of the Opal.

3. Plug the USB end of the cord into a USB port on your computer. The Opal will begin charging.

4. Allow the Opal to charge for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on how low the battery is, without touching the device so that the battery fully charges.

Tips & Warnings

• If you're having problems charging the battery, try resetting the Opal. Use a tack or a pin to press the reset button on the back of the mp3 player.
