USE AND MAINTENANCE
THIS UNIT IS SUPPLIED WITH HIGHLY- EFFECTIVE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY (LI-POLYMER). SUCH BATTERY PACK A HIGH STORAGE CAPACITY AND LOW LEVEL OF DEGRADATION. THE LATTER MEANS THAT THE BATTERY CAN ALSO BE RECHARGED WHEN ONLY PARTLY SPENT.
Plug the AC adapter into the battery. Please fully charge the battery prior to first use.
Rechargeable Battery Installation & Use
The provided battery can be recharged for about 300 times. It takes about 4-5 hours to recharge the battery, then the red indicator is put out. A fully charged battery can power the unit for about 2.5 hours. Power consumption depends on the operations of the player such as brightness of the screen, volume level, etc.
Recharge the battery when fully spent in order to maximize its life. Never recharge the battery already fully charged .
Under no circumstance should you short out the battery, store it in a metal container, or leave it in a humid or damp environment. Store the battery in an airtight container if possible. Recharge effectiveness will degrade when environmental temperatures drop below 10 ºC or exceed 35 ºC.
Battery Storage
1 . Storage Temperature and Humidity (Short - term)
In a dry location with low humidity (Max.85%), no corrosive gases, at a temperature range of -20ºC to 45ºC. In a location where humidity is extremely high or with temperature below -20ºC or above 45ºC, the metallic parts of battery will rust and result in electrolyte leakage due to expansion or contraction in parts composed of organic materials.
22
Page 23
Quick Starting Guide
2 . Long-term Storage (2 years , -20ºC to 35ºC)
As long-term storage can accelerate battery self-discharge and lead to the deactivation of reactants, locations where the temperature ranges between 10ºC and 30ºC are suitable for long-term storage. When charge for the first time after long-term storage, deactivation of reactants may have led to increased battery voltage and decreased battery capacity. Restore such batteries to original performance through repeating several cycles of charge and discharge. When storing battery for more than 1 year, charge at least once a year to prevent leakage and deterioration in performance due to self discharge. When using a rapid charger of voltage detection type, carry out charge and discharge at least once every 6 months.
Note :
To get the best performance, charge your battery for more than 12 hours at the first time after unpacking, and carry out 3 cycles of charge and discharge under proper conditions.
