Precautions

On safetyDo not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 6V jack.On power sources•Use house current or rechargeable battery.

•For use in your house: For the supplied battery charging stand, use the AC power adaptor supplied with this recorder. Do not use any other AC power adaptor since it may cause the recorder to malfunction.

Polarity of the plug

•Connect the AC power adaptor to an easily accessible AC outlet. Should you notice an abnormality in the AC power adaptor, disconnect it from the AC outlet immediately.

•The recorder is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the recorder itself has been turned off.

•If you are not going to use this recorder for a long time, be sure to disconnect the power supply (AC power adaptor or rechargeable battery). To remove the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet, grasp the adaptor plug itself; never pull the cord.

On heat build-up

Heat may build up in the recorder if it is used for an extended period of time. This, however, is not a malfunction.

On installation

•If you use the recorder at a place subject to static or electrical noise, the recording may not be properly done or the recorded data may be lost.

•Never use the recorder where it will be subjected to extremes of light, temperature, moisture or vibration.

•Never wrap the recorder in anything when it is being used with the AC power adaptor. Heat build-up in the recorder may cause malfunction or damage.

On the headphones/earphonesRoad safety

Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your recorder at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones/earphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate of the people around you.

On the remote control

The supplied remote control is designed for use with this recorder only. The recorder cannot be operated with a remote control that was supplied with another device.

On charging

•The supplied battery charging stand can be used only with this recorder. Any other models cannot be charged.

•Do not use the supplied battery charging stand to charge any other battery beside the supplied one or the one designated for it (LIP-4WM).

•Be sure to use the supplied AC power adaptor.

•Charge the rechargeable battery at a temperature of +5°C (+41°F) to +35°C (+95°F). The charging time will vary according to the surrounding temperature. (If the surrounding temperature is low, the required charging time will be longer. This is a characteristic of the lithium-ion battery.)

•If you do not use the recorder for a long time, remove the rechargeable battery from the recorder and keep it in the cool, dry place. To prevent degradation of the rechargeable battery, make sure not to store the rechargeable battery when it is either completely discharged or fully charged.
