Important:

If you are using NiMH or NiCd batteries, the batteries will charge when the headphones are powered with the AC power adapter. Do not power the head- phones with the AC power adapter if you installed alkaline or other non-re- chargeable batteries—this could cause the batteries to leak. Do not mix batter- ies with different chemistry types (for example, a zinc battery with an alkaline battery). Do not mix new and used batteries. Do not leave batteries installed in the product when not in use for long periods.
