To connect the battery to the player, align the 
notches on the battery with the holes on the 
bottom of the player, push the notches into 
the holes, and slide the battery and player 
together.

Disconnecting the Battery

To disconnect the battery, hold down the 
button on the front of the battery, slide the 
battery back, and pull it away from the 
player.

Charging the Battery

The battery may be charged while

end of the power adapter to the DC IN 
jack on the player, and the other end to a 
power source.
The CHG light on the front of the player 
will shine red when the battery is

battery is fully charged.

Note:

The battery will only charge when the player is turned off.
