Notes
• Be sure to set the POWER/LOCK switch to OFF position when replacing batteries. Unloading the
batteries while the recorder is recording, erasing or otherwise accessing an audio or a music file may
corrupt the file.
• Be sure to replace both batteries at the same time.
• Never mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types and/or brands.
• If it takes longer than 3 minutes to replace dead batteries, the internal rechargeable backup battery will
be exhausted, so you may have to reset the time when you load fresh batteries (
