IMPORTANT AC ADAPTER/CHARGER INFORMATION
AND PRECAUTIONS
It is normal for the AC adapter/charger to feel warm during use.
When the AC adapter/charger is connected, the G5 automatically
switches to the AC adapter/charger's power and installed batteries
are not used.
Disconnect the AC adapter/charger from the power outlet if it is not
being used.
Remove the batteries when using the AC adapter/charger for long
periods of time.
Use only the included AC adapter/charger or one specifically suggested
by Eton Corporation.
The backlight will remain illuminated when using the AC
adapter/charger.
CHARGING NI-MH BATTERIES IN THE G5
With its included AC adapter/charger connected, the G5 internally
recharges 4 Ni-MH (nickel-metal-hydride) rechargeable batteries. Note
that the G5 can still play while the batteries are charging and the
alarm functions will work.
CAUTION! Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries!
To charge batteries:
1. Install 4 NI-MH batteries, observing the polarity diagram inside the
battery compartment.

charging terminates once the set charge time has been reached.
BATTERY CHARGING TIME CHART
The charging times in the chart are based on the following formula:
Charging hours = battery capacity (in milliamp hours) / 100mA (the
charging current).
