Safety precautions

Note on the built-in battery•For the replacement of the built-in battery, contact your dealer.

•The battery built into this unit discharges spontaneously even when this unit is not used. This means that the built-in battery may be exhausted completely when this unit is left unused for a long period. If this happens, recharge the battery before using this unit.

•The battery recharging time is variable depending on the condition of the battery and ambient temperature.

•The available playback time reduces when this unit is used under low temperatures.

•The built-in battery can be recharged for about 500 times. (This is a reference value and is not guaranteed.)

•The built-in battery is a consumable part, and the available playback time reduces gradually after repeated use. If the available playback time becomes very short even after the battery has been recharged fully, the battery may be degraded; replace it with new one.

•Kenwood will not assume any liabilities for the alteration or loss of data caused due to complete discharging of the built-in battery.

•The built-in battery is a lithium ion battery.

It is free from the memory effect of Ni-Cd and nickel-hydrogen batteries, with which the capacity decreases if the battery is charged or discharged incompletely for several times. The built-in battery therefore accepts additional charging before it has exhausted completely.
