Cautions concerning the rechargeable
batteries
Read the following descriptions carefully
when you use the Ni-MH rechargeable
batteries.
Discharging:
The rechargeable batteries self-discharge
while this is not in use. Be sure to charge
them regularly before use.
Operating temperature:
The rechargeable batteries are chemical
products. The rechargeable batteries
efficiency may fluctuate even when
operating within the recommended
temperature range. This is an inherent
nature of such products.
Recommended temperature range:
When operating appliance:
0°C - 42°C/ 32°F - 107.6°F
Charging:
5°C - 35°C/ 41°F - 95°F
Storage for a long period:
–20°C - 30°C/ –4°F - 86°F
Using the rechargeable batteries outside
the above temperature range may result in
declining efficiency and shorter battery life.
In order to prevent battery leakage or rust,
remove the rechargeable batteries from the
products when you will not be using them
for a long time, and store them separately.
Notes
• This recorder is designed to fully charge
batteries regardless of their energy level.
However, for best results when charging
newly purchased rechargeable batteries
or batteries that have not been used
for a long time (more than one month),
It is recommended to fully charge the
batteries then discharge repeatedly for 2
to 3 times.
• Do not charge the recorder with the USB
hub connected.
• Insert the supplied rechargeable battery
and set [

blinks. Charge the batteries at a
temperature in the range of 5°C to 35°C
(41°F to 95°F).
*1
[
ø
]: When the surrounding
temperature is low.
*2
[
√
]: When the surrounding
temperature is high.
• When using time becomes notably short
even after the batteries are fully charged,
replace them with new ones.
• Be sure to push the USB connector all the
way in. Otherwise, the recorder may not
operate properly.
• Be sure to use the included dedicated
USB cable. If any other company’s cable
is used, it may lead to malfunction of the
recorder. Also, never use this dedicated
cable with any other company’s products.
