Cautions
Batteries
• Before replacing batteries, always turn the minidisc player off. Otherwise, the settings you
have made will be changed.
Rechargeable Ni - MH battery :
• Use only the rechargeable battery BN-R1210 (supplied) or BN-R127 (not supplied) with this
minidisc player.
• 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 an already charged battery will shorten its service life.
• When recharging a 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 the rechargeable battery because
this may cause dangerous short-circuiting.
• Recharge the battery at a temperature of 10°C to 35°C.
• Charge at least once every 6 months when not using for long periods of time, to avoid a drop
in battery recharging performance
Rechargeable battery:
To prevent damage to the battery, and to avoid electrolyte leakage, heed the following instructions.
• Align the
ª
and
·
polarities properly when inserting the batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the minidisc player for a long period of time.
• Do not expose the batteries to open flame, and do not short-circuit, disassemble, or subject
them to excessive heat.
Carrying batteries:
• When putting rechargeable battery in a pocket or bag, ensure that no other metal objects,
such as necklaces or coins, 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.
Recycling Notice
The rechargeable battery is designated recyclable.
Please follow your local recycling regulations.
