The length of battery life in CD-BT1MKII is affected by both the environment and the number of functions in use. Factors that af- fect battery life include temperature, humid- ity, the number of special functions used, and so on.

Under some circumstances, there may not be enough power in the batteries to power the CD-BT1MKII, despite the battery power indi- cation on the display. If this happens, change the batteries, or use an AC adapter.
