cannot be done if the au IC card is not inserted.

*  Confirm the correct inserting direction of the IC card. Failure 

to do so might cause a malfunction or damage.

*  Do not place the IC card directly on the connectors in 

the bottom of the card slot. Doing so might cause a 
malfunction or damage.

Slide the battery pack, with the marked surface 
(recycling symbol, etc.) facing up, all the way in.

  Align the product's terminals and the battery pack's 

 (terminals), attach them in the direction of

.

*  Use the battery pack specified for this product.

  <Removing the battery pack>

  Lift up the front part of the battery pack and pull it 

out in the direction of the arrow to remove it.

2

 Attach the rear cover.

  Check the direction of the rear cover and place it so that it aligns with the product. While firmly 

pressing the   parts in the following illustration, attach the rear cover so that there are no 

gaps.

Charging the Product

This section explains how to charge the product using the specified TypeC Common AC Adapter 

01 U (0601PQV) (sold separately).

*  The battery pack is not fully charged at the time of purchase. Be sure to charge the battery before using the product.
*  We recommend charging this product while the power is off or while it is idling.
*  If the power is on, or if the temperature of the product or battery pack is high, charging may stop, even if the battery 

is not full, in order to maintain the battery's life. Also, if you continue charging it for a long time while the power is on, 
the battery enters the Long Life Charge state (the maximum charge capacity is about 70%) and the remaining battery 
power is automatically reduced gradually to protect the battery.

*  The charging time varies depending on the environment and conditions in which the product is used.
  Fast charging is possible if you are using a typeC Common AC Adapter 01 U (0601PQV) (sold separately).
  For the time it takes to charge, refer to the "Product Specifications" section on the next page.

1

 

Insert the USB connector   (type C)  of the AC adapter  (sold separately)  into the USB port   (type C)  on the 
product.

*  Plug the USB connector (type C) straight into the USB port (type C) of the product.

2

 Plug the power plug of the AC adapter (sold 

separately) into a power outlet.

*  Make sure that the AC adapter (sold separately) does not 

come unplugged.

*  Pressing the Power button 

 when charging with the 

power off or while idling shows how much of the battery 
has been charged (%).

*  Because the battery pack is initializing when being used 

for the first time after attaching it, showing how much 
of the battery has been charged may take some time.

*  If you turn on "Long Life Charge", charging stops when the battery's level is about 70%. Repeatedly charging and 

discharging the battery pack frequently while it has sufficient remaining power prevents accelerated deterioration of 
the battery pack. (Default setting: OFF)

  • Display procedure: In the home screen, tap [Quick Menu] - [ECO Settings] - [Long Life Charge].
