<Note>: The IDX ENDURA battery, NP-1 type battery (including the holder and holder plate) and AC adaptor are not included with the unit. For the information about the AC adaptor, ask your dealer or the nearest FOSTEX service station.

<Note>: In general, a battery is not charged when shipped. Therefore, before using the battery, you must charge it according to the manual of the battery (note that the PD204 does not provide the battery charge function). Also note that you must handle the battery correctly according to the manual of the battery.

<Note>: You can mount the NP-1 battery housed in the dedicated holder to the PD204 without any special parts, however, the holder projects from the PD204 body. If you want to mount the NP-1 battery housed in the dedicated holder to the PD204 without projecting from the PD204 body, the optional mounting hardware (Model EX-BP1) is needed. Ask your dealer or the local Fostex service station for installing the mounting hardware. The mounting hardware must be installed by Fostex service station.
