Power supply

Do not charge the recorder with the USB hub connected.

Insert the supplied rechargeable battery and set [Battery] to [Ni-MH]. If [Battery] is set to [Alkaline], you cannot recharge (P.16, P.61).

You cannot charge when [ø]*1 or [√]*2 blinks. Charge the batteries at a temperature in the range of 5°C to 35°C

(41°F to 95°F).

*1 [ø]: When the surrounding

temperature is low. *2 [√]: When the surrounding

temperature is high.

When using time becomes notably short even after the batteries are fully charged, replace them with new ones.

Be sure to push the USB connector all the way in. Otherwise, the recorder may not operate properly.

Be sure to use the included dedicated USB cable. If any other company’s cable is used, it may lead to malfunction of the recorder. Also, never use this dedicated cable with any other company’s products.

Selecting [Composite] in the USB connection settings will prevent the recorder to charge via USB. Select [Storage class] in the USB connection settings if you would like to charge (P.73).

In case you would like to charge using the [Composite] setting, select [Option] in the USB connection settings, then connect the USB cable to the recorder. Select [AC adapter] at the [USB Connect] display to start charging (P.73).

Cautions concerning the rechargeable

batteries

Read the following descriptions carefully when you use the Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.

Discharging:

The rechargeable batteries self-discharge while this is not in use. Be sure to charge them regularly before use.

Operating temperature:

The rechargeable batteries are chemical products. The rechargeable batteries efficiency may fluctuate even when operating within the recommended temperature range. This is an inherent nature of such products.

Recommended temperature range:

When operating appliance: 0°C - 42°C/ 32°F - 107.6°F

Charging:

5°C - 35°C/ 41°F - 95°F

Storage for a long period: –20°C - 30°C/ –4°F - 86°F

Using the rechargeable batteries outside the above temperature range may result in declining efficiency and shorter battery life. In order to prevent battery leakage or rust, remove the rechargeable batteries from the products when you will not be using them for a long time, and store them separately.

Notes

This recorder is designed to fully charge batteries regardless of their energy level. However, for best results when charging newly purchased rechargeable batteries or batteries that have not been used for a long time (more than one month), It is recommended to fully charge the batteries then discharge repeatedly for 2 to 3 times.
