FAQs

Q: Must I use the built-in speaker in the back of the QT in order to hear the pronunciation of the word?
A: No. You can use the earphones enclosed in the package. Using the earphones is even recommended.

Q: When I use the earphones, the volume seems very loud. Is there any way to change this?
A: Yes. The volume of the QT can be controlled though the menu. Different volume settings should be used when listening directly through the built-in speaker and when using the earphones.

Q: Once I see the translation of the word on the screen, I have to press Enter in order to hear the pronunciation of the word. It would be much more efficient for me to hear the word right away.
