Sony BDP-S1 Checking the remaining power of the battery, Battery life 1), Notes on rechargeable batteries and dry batteries

Note on the useful life of the rechargeable battery and when to replace it

If the battery is new or has not been used for a long time, it may not charge completely.

In that case, charge it until “Charging” disappears from the display and then use the player until the battery is completely depleted (“Low Battery” appears on the display). Repeat this procedure several times.

If the battery life is shorter by about half of a normal charge after trying this procedure, replace the battery with a new rechargeable battery.

Note on carrying the rechargeable battery

Use the supplied battery carrying case to protect against unexpected heat. If the rechargeable battery comes into contact with the metallic objects, heat or ﬁre may occur due to a short circuit.

Checking the remaining power of the battery

The remaining power of the battery is indicated in the display as shown below. As the black indicator section decreases, the remaining power is depleted further.

Notes on rechargeable batteries and dry batteries

•Do not charge dry batteries.

•Do not throw the batteries into a ﬁre.

•Do not carry batteries in a pocket, etc. with coins or other metallic objects. The battery can generate heat if its positive and negative terminals are accidentally allowed to come into contact with a metallic object.

•When the batteries are not to be used for a long time, remove them.

•If battery leakage occurs, wipe off any deposit left in the battery compartment, and install new batteries. If the deposit adheres to your skin, wash it off thoroughly.
