Power Supply Preparations

Refer to the specifications (page 6) for information on operating times when using rechargeable batteries or dry-cell batteries.

When using rechargeable batteries

Be sure to recharge the rechargeable batteries BN-R1211 (not in- cluded) before using them.

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

Recharging procedure

1 Insert the special rechargeable batteries into the unit.

Caution:

Do not open the battery lid too wide. It can break if you forcibly open it beyond approximately 90°.

2 Connect the AC adaptor.

Right side panel of the unit

DC IN jack (DC IN 4.5 V )

Recharging will be completed after 10 hours.

3 When recharging is complete, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet and the DC IN jack.

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.

Recharging takes place only when the unit is powered off. (It is not possible to recharge the batteries while playing a CD.)

The AC adaptor and rechargeable batteries may become warm while recharging is in progress. This is normal and is not a mal- function.

Turning off the Anti-Shock Protection (see page 5) will save the battery power more or less.

If the unit malfunctions or freezes during use, disconnect the power source (the AC adaptor and batteries). Then, connect the power source and operate the unit again.

Using the AC adaptor

Connect the AC adaptor supplied.

Refer to “When using rechargeable batteries” for connection in- structions.

Before use

Make sure the present voltage of your AC adaptor fits to your lo- cal voltage before plugging it into the AC power outlet. If it doesn’t, shift the AC line-voltage selector with a screwdriver so that it corresponds to your local voltage.
