SONOS PLAY:3

To make changes to your shared folders list, select the Settings menu from a handheld Sonos controller and then choose

one of the following options:

• To add a new music folder to Sonos, select Manage Music Library-> Music Library Setup -> Add New Share on a hand-

held controller.

and then select Remove.

add this music to your Sonos music library.

to update automatically each day, select Schedule Music Index Updates and then select an update time.
