Replacing The Batteries - Sony PCM-M1 Operating Instructions Manual

Replacing the batteries

Tips
• This tape-corder is not
equipped with a power
switch. As a result, the
LCD display will always
be turned on as long as
the batteries are
inserted. However,
power consumption is
minimal and negligible.
• The clock will return to
its default setting
(97Y11M1D/
AM12H00M00S) if the
batteries are removed
from the tape-corder for
a long time. In this case,
set the clock again.
Notes
• If "bATTERy" is still
displayed after
replacing the batteries
press any button to clear
this display.
• When using the unit on
batteries, do not use a
dry battery and a
rechargeable battery
together.
• The battery life may
shorten depending on
the temperature and the
type of the battery.
"bATTERy" or "i"
may not be displayed
depending on the type
of battery. Use the
recommended NH-D100
battery.
* When no plug is connected to
the LINE OUT, REMOTE/2
