CARING FOR THE BATTERY
Your battery will last longer if you follow these simple guidelines for caring for
and storing it.
•
Recharge and store the battery within the temperature range of 40°F~95°F
(5°C~35°C ).
•
Do not overcharge (longer than 12 hours).
Excessive charging or discharging may shorten the battery’s life.
•
Battery life naturally shortens slowly over time.
If you are charging the player while it is connected to a laptop computer, make sure
the laptop’s battery is also fully charged or that the laptop is plugged into its power
source.
The battery is not charged in the PC Standby mode or when the hardware is safely
removed.
