Notes

•This recorder is designed to fully charge batteries regardless of their energy level. However, for best results when charging newly purchased rechargeable batteries or batteries that have not been used for a long time (more than one month), It is recommended to fully charge the batteries then discharge repeatedly for 2 to 3 times.

•When disposing rechargeable batteries, always observe the local laws and regulations. Contact you local recycling center for proper disposal methods.

•If Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are not fully discharged, protect against short- circuiting (e.g. by taping the contacts) before disposing.

For customers in Germany:

Olympus has a contract with the GRS (Joint Battery Disposal Association) in Germany to ensure environmentally friendly disposal.
