Charging the battery using
a USB connection
Turn on your computer and connect the USB
cable to your computer (

page 14). The
CHG lamp lights up on the USB adaptor
and charging of the battery starts. It takes
approximately 5 hours to charge. When the
player is connected to the AC power adaptor,
the power is supplied from the AC power
adaptor.
Notes
• When charging the battery using a USB
connection, if your computer’s power supply is
insuffi cient, the charging time will be longer.
• When charging the battery using a USB
connection, the charging will stop depending on
your system environment.
• If the player is connected to the computer for
a long time while charging, charging may stop
to prevent the temperature of the player from
increasing too much. In this case, the CHG lamp
goes out. Remove the USB adaptor from the
player and start charging again after a while.
• If the player will not be used for three months or
more, set the BUILT-IN BATTERY switch to OFF
to prevent degradation of the battery.
• Charge the battery in an ambient temperature of
between 5 to 35ºC (41 to 95ºF).
Notes on the AC power adaptor
• Use only the AC power adaptor and the
USB adaptor supplied with the player. Do
not use any other AC power adaptor since
this may cause the player to malfunction.
• The player is not disconnected from the
AC power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
player itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the player for a
long time, be sure to disconnect the power
supply. To remove the AC power adaptor
from the wall outlet, grasp the adaptor plug
itself; never pull the cord.
