About the AC adaptor

≥If the temperature of the battery is extremely high or extremely low, charging may take time or the battery may not be charged.

≥If the charging lamp keeps flashing, make sure that the terminals of the battery or the AC adaptor are not exposed to dirt, foreign objects or dust, then reconnect them properly.

Disconnect the AC cable from the AC outlet when you remove dirt, foreign objects or dust on the terminals of the battery or the AC adaptor.

If the charging lamp is still flashing, the temperature of the battery may be extremely high or extremely low or something may be wrong with the battery or AC adaptor. Contact consumer support. (l 152, 153)

≥If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC adaptor 1 m (3.3 feet) or more away from the radio.

≥After use, be sure to disconnect the AC adaptor. (If it is left connected, a minute amount of current is consumed.)

≥Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor and battery clean.
