How to Prolong Battery Life

•
Use the Maestro with the AC Adapter.
When you use the Maestro under the following conditions, the power consumption will be large.
Please use the AC Adapter when:
• The Maestro is operated while connected to your computer.
• The Maestro is operated with storage card or with any other optional equipment.
•
Select the short powered-off time in the setting menu. This will shorten the time the unit will
remain on if not used. For more information, see "Customize Your Maestro" of Chapter 2.
•
Turn off the front light.
•
Set the screen brightness to power saving mode. Also, shorten the light turn-off time. For more
information, see "Customize Your Maestro" of Chapter 2.
•
Use the Maestro with an ambient temperature between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). This
temperature range is the most effective for the built-in battery.
• When you use the Maestro in high or low temperature environments, the operable time is
shortened due to the decrease of the built-in battery capacity.
Battery Life
The built-in battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of the built-in battery
gradually decreases operable time. When the operable time has been extremely shortened it is
time to replace the built-in battery with a new one. The built-in battery life is altered depend on use
conditions.
• Do not leave the Maestro in a place of high or low temperature. It may shorten battery life.

Battery Charge Level and Stored Data Protection

If the battery charge level becomes extremely low, or is completely discharged, the memory data
stored in the Maestro will be deleted.
When the low battery status icon or the alarm message appears, immediately connect the AC
Adapter to the Maestro and charge the built-in battery.
• The built-in battery gradually discharges even if the device is not being used. When the
Maestro is left for a long time, the built-in battery of the Maestro may completely discharge.
• It is recommended to save the Maestro's memory data to your desktop computer or to a
storage card.
• The manufacturer is not responsible for data change or clearance due to battery discharge.
Please acknowledge that.
