When using rechargeable batteries (not included)

Be sure to recharge the rechargeable batteries BN-R1211J (not in- cluded) before using them.

For information about these, see “When purchasing rechargeable batteries” on page 6.

Notes:

• To operate the unit on batteries, the AC adaptor must be dis-

connected from the DC IN jack.

• It takes approximately 10 hours to recharge the rechargeable

batteries.

• Rechargeable batteries have a service life of approximately

300 charge-discharge cycles. If the operating time on one full

charge becomes noticeably shorter than it used to be, the batteries

have reached the end of their service life and should be replaced.

When using dry-cell batteries (not included)

Insert two “AA” (LR6) alkaline batteries.

The procedure for inserting and removing dry-cell batteries is identical to that for rechargeable bat- teries.
