Cautions
Batteries
• Before replacing batteries, always turn off the unit.
Rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery (BN-R127):
• Use only the rechargeable battery (BN-R127) supplied with the unit.
• If the power delivered by the battery lasts for a very short time after recharging, it means
that the battery's service life is over. Do not use it any more.
• Recharging already charged battery will shorten its service life.
• When recharging battery for the first time or when it has not been used for a long period of
time, the play time may be shorter than usual. In a case like this, repeatedly recharge and
discharge the battery. This will restore it to its regular state.
• Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of rechargeable battery since this may
cause short-circuiting which is dangerous.
• Recharging shall be made at the temperature from 10°C to 35°C.
Dry cell battery and rechargeable battery:
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed the following points.
• Align the » and Æ polarities properly when inserting the batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a long period of time.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire, and do not short-circuit, disassemble or subject them to
excessive heat.
• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Carrying batteries:
When putting dry cell or rechargeable batteries in a pocket or bag, ensure that no other metal
objects such as a necklace are placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause short-
circuiting which, in turn, may cause a fire.
Be absolutely sure to carry the rechargeable battery in the battery carrying case.
AC adaptor and charger/adaptor
• Handle the AC adaptor and charger/adaptor carefully. Improper handling is dangerous.
Alkaline battery (Not supplied)
• Do not touch them with wet hands.
