Caution!
When not using the battery pack, remove it and store in a cool place.
Do not use the AC power adapter or battery pack for a prolonged period of time during
recharging. You might get a low temperature burn.
Keep the battery pack free from smoke, steam, moisture, and dust.
Do not place the battery pack near or on a heater, in a a kitchen, or any other place where there is
smoke or steam. Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Avoid direct sunlight, heaters, or high temperature places, etc., for example, the inside of a car. It
can cause an explosion, a short circuit, overheating, smoke, fire, or damage to the product.
Using the battery pack where ambient temperatures under 50°F or over 86°F can reduce battery life.
After a Recharge, store the Battery pack separately.
This battery pack is a lithium ion battery. Even when not in use, power will drain slowly. So use a fully
charged battery pack.
Recharge until the charge lamp turns green and stays on. Partially charging the battery pack
decreases the overall lifetime of the battery.
Cautions on Charging the Battery pack
Charge in locations in which the temperature ranges from 50°F~86°F. Charging in locations with low
temperatures slows down charging and decreases the capacity of the battery pack. You cannot fully
charge the battery pack at high temperatures.
If the player is overheated and the battery pack’s internal temperature goes up to a certain level, you
will not be able to charge the battery pack. (The lamp flashes quickly and the light does not come on.)
If this occurs, remove the battery pack. After the internal temperature reaches a safe level, re-attach
the battery pack. If the AC adapter is attached to the player, charging begins automatically.
The battery pack becomes warm during recharge or use. This is normal and is not a cause for
concern. However, a hot battery pack may take longer to charge or may not charge at all. Wait until
the battery pack cools down before charging.
Battery Pack Life and Use (Low Temperature)
The lifetime of the battery pack is limited.
Power slowly drains from the battery pack even when you are not using it. Though it varies for differing
storage conditions, the battery pack stored unused for a year has a much shorter lifetime. If the
battery pack constantly runs down quickly, even after a full charge, replace it with a new one.
Total operating time of the battery pack becomes much shorter when used at temperatures below
50°F. Electrical energy is discharged due to internal chemical action of the battery pack. A very low
temperature may impede this chemical action and shortens the total operating time.
CAUTION
Be sure to use only the battery pack exclusively designed for your player.
NOTE
When not using the player, always turn off the power to conserve the battery pack.
For best results, always charge the battery pack with the player turned off.
