Casio BE-300 manual Charging the Battery Pack

Page 32

Important

Be sure to observe the following important battery handling precautions. Failure to do so can cause batteries to leak, resulting in damage to surrounding items and create the danger of fire and electrical shock.

Charge the battery pack in an area where the temperature is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F). Charging in areas that are very cold or exposed to direct sunlight can cause deterioration and leaking of the battery pack.

To avoid deterioration and leaking, the battery pack is designed to discharge even when you do not use the CASSIOPEIA. Be sure to recharge the battery pack at least once a month, regardless of how much you use the CASSIOPEIA during that time.

Charging the Battery Pack

Attach the AC adapter to the cradle and place the CASSIOPEIA onto the cradle.

Charging starts automatically as soon as you place the CASSIOPEIA onto the cradle.

The charge indicator is amber while charging is in progress, and goes off when charging is complete.

It takes about three or four hours to reach full charge.

You can use your CASSIOPEIA while the battery pack is charging.

Important

Do not use the CASSIOPEIA while it is charging for the first time after you purchase it.

If the battery does not achieve full charge after the normal charge time, unplug the AC adapter from the cradle to stop charging.
