About the AC adaptor

≥Extremely high temperatures or low temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.

≥If the battery is kept in high-temperature, high-humidity, or oily-smoky places, the terminals may rust and cause malfunctions.

≥To store the battery for a long period of time, we recommend you charge it once every year and store it again after you have completely used up the charged capacity.

≥Dust and other matter attached to the battery terminals should be removed.

Prepare spare batteries when going out for recording.

≥Prepare batteries enough to last for 3 to 4 times the period you are planning to record for. Cold places such as a ski resort can shorten recording time.

If you drop the battery accidentally, check to see if the terminals are damaged.

≥Inserting a battery with damaged terminals can damage the unit.

Do not throw old battery into fire.

≥Heating a battery or throwing it into a fire may result in an explosion.

If the operating time is very short even after the battery has been recharged, the battery has worn out. Please purchase a new battery.

≥If the temperature of the battery is extremely high or extremely low, charging may take time or the battery may not be charged.

≥If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC adaptor 1 m or more away from the radio.

≥When using the AC adaptor, it may generate whirring sounds. However, this is normal.

≥After use, be sure to disconnect the AC adaptor. (If it is left connected, a minute amount of current is consumed.)

≥Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor and battery clean.
