Powering the unit
You can use the internal battery or the AC power adapter to power the unit.
Charging the battery
If you want to use the unit without the AC power adapter, you must first charge the internal battery of the unit. To do this, connect the supplied AC power adapter as illustrated.
To the ! (DC In) connector
To the AC outlet
When the AC power adapter is connected to the unit, the internal battery starts charging. The 1 e (power) indicator flashes during charging. When the battery is fully charged, the indicator turns off. The charging process takes about 4 hours at ambient temperature.
Hint
The internal battery charges even when the unit is in use, as long as the AC power adapter is connected. However, the charge time is considerably longer than when the internal battery is charged as outlined above.
Notes
•Only use the supplied AC power adapter. Other power adapters do not work.
•If you use the unit under battery power at temperatures of 10°C (50°F) or less, you cannot use the unit as long as normal. Normal operation of the unit under battery power is not guaranteed at low temperatures; therefore, make sure that you connect the AC power adapter.
•To maintain battery performance, make sure that you charge it periodically by connecting the AC power adapter.
