be turned on.
Cause or corrective action
 Charge the battery within the

(50 °F to 86 °F).
Otherwise, the charging may be
insufficient or may not start.
 The operating temperature is below 5
°C (41 °F). This is due to the battery
characteristics and not a malfunction.

repeatedly charging and discharging.
 The battery needs to be replaced.
Consult your nearest Sony Service
Center.
 The battery has not been given
enough time to charge fully.
Charge the battery until the charge
indicator goes off. (The battery icon

power while charging.)

then turn on the Reader.
