P. Rechargeable Battery Installation and Use

The player utilizes a set of long-life Ni-Mh batteries for a portable power supply. Ni-MH batteries feature high storage capacity and low level of degradation. This means the Ni-MH batteries do not have “Memory Effect” and thus can be recharged safely regardless of whether the battery is fully or only partially discharged. The battery

must be charged at least 8 hours prior to first use. NOTE: If you plan not to use the battery for an extended period of time

(one week or longer), we recommend that you first fully charge the battery and store it away properly. For longer periods of storage, please recharge the battery at least once every two months to maintain the battery in optimum condition. Under no circumstances short the battery terminals, store the battery in a metal container, or leave the battery in a humid or damp environment. Ideally, store the battery in an airtight container with desiccant or other dehumidifying agent. Each full recharge takes approximately five-hours and one full charge can provide power to the player for more than 2 hours. During recharge, the red indicator will stay on. Once fully recharged, the red light will turn off. At this point you may remove the wall plug and stop charging.

Precautions related to Battery Recharge:

1. Once the battery is fully discharged, immediately recharge (regardless of whether you plan to use battery or not) in order to maximize battery life.

2. To charge the battery, please connect the power jack directly into the battery and leave connected until the red power indicator turns off.

Using and Maintaining your Rechargeable Batteries

1. Please make sure you always use only the AC adapter included with the player to recharge your batteries. The battery can only be charged with the AC adaptor and will NOT charge with the car DC adaptor.

Page 33

2. Recharge efficiency will degrade when environmental tempera-

PRESS

tures drop below 50oF (10oC) or exceed 95oF (35oC).

3. Please remove the battery from the player and store it properly if the player is not to be used for long time. During this period , please recharge the battery at least once every two months to maintain the battery in optimum codition.

Installing the Battery Pack:

1. First, make sure the player is in “Stop” mode and that the AC power supply has been disconnected.

2. Close the player cover.

3. Align the guide pins on the battery with the holes on the back of the unit. Then push the battery towards the rear of the player until it locks into position. The lock position is indicated by a click. The battery will fit snugly to the player.

4. Insert the battery plug into the DC 9-12V jack on the DVD player.

Figure 7. Installing the DVD Player Battery

Removing the Battery Pack:

Q. Troubleshooting

PROBLEM

No sound or distorted sound

Can’t advance through a movie

The icon (

) appears on screen

Picture is distorted

SOLUTION

• Make sure the DVD player is connected properly. Make sure all cables are securely inserted into the appropriate jacks.

• You can’t advance through the opening credits and warning information that appears at the beginning of movies because the disc is programmed to prohibit that action.

The feature or action cannot be completed at this time because:

1. The disc’s software restricts it.

2. The disc’s software doesn’t support the feature (e.g., angles)

3. The feature is not available at the

moment.

4. You’ve requested a title or chapter

number that is out of range.

• The disc might be damaged. Try another disc.

• It is normal for some distortion to appear during forward or reverse scan.

No forward or reverse scan

• Some discs have sections that prohibit rapid scanning or title and chapter skip.

• If you try to skip through the warning information and credits at the beginning of a movie, you won’t be able to. This part of the movie is often programmed to prohibit skipping through it.
