Note

 

 

• Always use the dedicated USB cable that is

 

provided. Do not use a cable from another

 

manufacturer. Doing so could cause a failure.In

2

addition, do not connect the dedicated cable to

another manufacturer’s product.

• Carefully insert the battery facing the right direc-

tion.

 

Supply

• Be sure to turn off the recorder before replacing

recorder is operating, a failure could occur (For

 

the battery. If the battery is removed while the

 

example, the recorder may become unable to

 

play files).

 

• You may have to reset the time if the battery is

 

removed from the recorder for 15 minutes or if

 

the battery is repeatedly removed and inserted

 

at short intervals (p.27).

 

• Remove the battery if the recorder is not to be

 

used for a long time.

 

• When you need a new battery, always purchase

 

the Olympus lithium ion battery (LI-50B).Do not

 

use a cable from another manufacturer. Doing

 

so could cause a failure.

 

• When recharging the battery, turn on the PC

 

and connect the recorder using the USB cable.

 

The battery is not recharged if the PC is off or

 

in the standby, hibernation or auto-power-off

 

mode.

 

• Do not use the USB hub to connect to the PC

 

when recharging the battery.

 

• The battery indicator shows [<] when recharg-

 

ing is complete (Recharging time: about three

 

hours*).

 

* This is the approximate time when recharg-

 

ing an empty battery to the full level at the

 

room temperature.The recharging time varies

 

depending on the remaining battery level,

 

recharging state and other factors.

 

• If [;] or [=] is displayed, the battery cannot be

 

recharged.The ambient temperature must be

 

between 5 C and 35 C to recharge the battery.

 

[;]: The ambient temperature is too low.

 

[=]: The ambient temperature is too high.

 

• If the battery runs out very quickly even after

 

being recharged to the full level, replace it with a

 

new one.

Securely insert the USB connector all the way in. The USB connector must be properly connected to operate normally.

Recharging

4Discharge:

Because the lithium ion battery has self-discharge characteristics, recharge the attached lithium ion battery before using the product for the first time.

4Operating temperature:

The battery is a chemical product. Although the battery performance varies even if the battery is used in the recommended temperature range, this variation is not a failure.

4Recommended temperature range:

When operating the recorder: 0 to 42 C

When recharging: 5 to 35 C

When storing the recorder for a long time: –20 to 30 C

Using the battery outside the above temperature range could cause performance deterioration or a shorter period of durability. If the recorder is not to be used for a long time, remove the battery prior to storage to prevent liquid leak or rust.

A new battery or a battery that has not been used for a long time (one month or more) may not completely recharge due to the nature of lithium ion batteries. In such a case, repeatedly recharge and discharge the batteries a few times.

Dispose of the battery according to applicable laws.When disposing of the battery without completely discharging it, insulate the battery terminals with tape or take other measures to prevent short-circuiting.
