400. Other chargers or adapters may damage the Gmini 400. The green
CHARGE indicator lights up to indicate that the external adapter is
connected. The batteries will charge automatically when the AC adapter/
charger is plugged in. Once the batteries are fully charged, this light
will blink, indicating that you can disconnect the charger/adapter. Once
charged, you can get up to 10 hours* of MP3 music playback time and
up to 5 hours* of AVI video playback time (on the built-in screen) from
the batteries. The Gmini 400 is made with integrated batteries which are
designed to last for the life of the Gmini 400. This means that you will
not have to change them. If, in the exceptional case, the batteries need
changing, this should only be done by an Archos technician.
