Notes on Batteries

Do not charge a dry battery.

Do not carry a dry battery together with coins or other metallic objects. It can generate heat if the positive and negative terminals of the battery accidentally come into contact with metallic objects.

If you are not going to use the unit for a long time, remove the battery to avoid damage from battery leakage or corrosion.

Checking the remaining battery power

Pull up the self-adjusting band and check the power indicator located on the upper part of the right housing. The batteries are still serviceable when the indicator lights in red.

Charge the rechargeable batteries or install new dry batteries if the power indicator light dims, flashes, or the sound becomes distorted or noisy.

Note

The rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries should be replaced with new ones when they last only half the expected time after a proper recharging. The rechargeable batteries type BP-HP550 are not commercially available. You can order the batteries from the store where you purchased this system, or at your nearest Sony dealer.
