CHARGING THE BATTERY
The player is powered by a lithium-polymer battery. It has no memory effect and thus it can be
recharged at any time regardless of whether it is fully or partially discharged.
The unit can be recharged when it is powered on or off. When the power is off, it takes about 3
to 4 hours to fully charge the battery. When the power is on, it takes approximately ten hours to
charge the battery. When fully charged, the battery can be used for about fi ve hours.
The unit can be charged using the AC/DC Adapter or the Vehicle DC Power Adapter.
By AC/DC Adapter:
Connect the AC/DC adapter to the DC IN 9-12V jack on the unit, then plug the adapter into
a 120 VAC outlet.
By Vehicle DC Power Adapter:
Plug one end of the Vehicle DC Power Adapter into the DC IN 9-12V jack on the unit, then plug
the other end into the vehicle DC accessory socket of a car.
Do not charge the DVD player in the vehicle when the vehicle is not running.
While the unit is charging, the red charge indicator will fl ash. When the battery is fully charged, the
red charge indicator will be steadily lit.
