The Stratus4 DAISY player is highly accessible and user-friendly. Like all Victor Reader Stratus models, it features large, tactile, high-contrast keys, a built-in speaker and headphone jack, and self-voicing controls.

Browse DAISY books by chapter, section, subsection, or phrase. Navigate MP3 books and music, moving by folder, file, and specific time jumps. All content is organised via the Victor Reader bookshelf categories.

Using the Stratus4 means you never lose your place: for every title, your player will automatically resume reading where you left off, regardless of how many books you are reading. In addition, the bookmark key marks important points in any type of book, audio file, or computer document.

You can also take and operate your Victor Reader Stratus anywhere, thanks to its rechargeable battery and integrated carrying handle.

Important

• Your player will arrive fitted with a keypad cover which is attached by a clip on each of the four corners of the player. This plastic cover hides less-used buttons to make the player easier to use. Remove the cover by gently unhooking the clips at each of the four corners of the player. It is easier to remove by unclipping two corners at a time.
