about 3～4 hours to fully charge the battery. When the power is on, it takes approxim ately
ten hours to charge the battery. When fully charged, the battery can be used for a bout
four hours.

The unit can be charged using the AC/DC Adapter or the Vehicle DC Power Ada pter.

By AC/DC Adapter:

Connect the AC/DC adapter to the the unit, then plug the adapter
into a 0 VAC outlet.

By Vehicle DC Power Adapter:

Plug one end of the dap ter into the jack on the unit, then
plug the other end into the socket of a car.
Do not charge the DVD player in the vehicle when the vehicle is not running.
