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.
