BATTERY CARE
• Avoid completely depleting the battery as this will shorten its overall lifetime and
takes much longer to fully charge afterwards.
• If sunlight is the only means available for charging, it is recommended to leave the
player in direct light often to keep the battery at least partially charged.
• When not in use and whenever possible, keep the player in a cool place, which will
also help to preserve battery life.
• Before stowing the player for prolonged periods, make sure the battery is at least
partially charged.
For solar charging, place the player with the solar panel facing bright sunlight for at
least a full day . When solar charging, there is no charge indication.
Actual charge time will vary according to the power source and current battery capacity.
While charging, the charging icon will appear next to the battery capacity icon in the
top right corner of the screen and blink.
CHARGING SCREEN
If the player is off when connected for charging, the following screen will be displayed:
If the backlight turns off while on this screen, a 2-second press on
will turn the
backlight on. An additional 2-second press can turn the player on and operate normally
while connected to an external power source.
