Compaq PM-1 manual Charging the Batteries, Using the Power Supply Adapter

Charging the Batteries

The battery icon on the display screen shows the amount of charge held by the batteries (when the PM-1 is not plugged into an AC electrical outlet). The battery icon is divided into three segments that indicate the approximate power capacity of the batteries. Replace or recharge the batteries when the battery icon goes blank.

To charge (or recharge) the batteries that came with your PM-1, plug the PM-1 into a standard electrical outlet while the batteries are in the battery compartment. Do not charge the batteries for more than 8 hours because it will reduce the life of the batteries.

Using the Power Supply Adapter

Before using the power supply adapter, make sure your local voltage corresponds to the adapter’s voltage. Only use the supplied adapter because other types of adapters may damage the player.

To connect the power supply adapter, plug the large two-pronged end into a standard electrical outlet and plug the single-pronged end into the DC 3V socket on the player.

Note: Always disconnect the power supply adapter when you are not using it unless you are recharging the batteries.
