Charging is completed and the CHG lamp goes off in approximately 3 hours*. The lighting mark lights up in the display if the player is on. When the player display is off, it takes approximately 1 hour* to charge up to 80%.

*This is the approximate charging time for an empty battery charged under a room temperature. When the player display is on, it takes approximately 6 hours to charge up to 80%. The charging time will differ depending on the remaining power and battery condition. If the battery is charged in a low-temperature environment, the charging time will be longer.
