Battery operation
The dictation machine can be used for approximately 12
hours when the alkaline manganese batteries are fully
charged.
• Open the battery compartment.
• Insert batteries (Micro type / AAA, 2 x 1,5 V). Make cer-
tain the polarity is correct.
• Close the battery compartment.
– Display for battery operation »
Note:
A signal will be omitted when batteries are weak. The battery
symbol flashes on the upper right edge of the display. You
will still be able to dictate for a few minutes until the dictation
machine automatically switches off.
«.
Rechargeable battery operation
To allow a smooth operation of the rechargeable battery*
you should always switch off your dictation machine after
you have finished dictations and connect it to the Digta
Station* to be recharged.
– Display when operating with rechargeable batteries:
» «.
Inserting rechargeable battery
With the Digta Station 446* you only may recharge the
Akku-Pack 466* rechargeable battery* in the dictation
machine.

PREPARATION
___________________________________
Note:
The dictation machine’s operating system is “shut down”
(similar to a PC) when it is turned off. There must still be sufficient power available for this purpose. If, after the dictation
machine has automatically turned off, you turn it back on again
without having plugged it into a power supply* (e.g. via USB
cable to a PC) or without having inserted new rechargeable
batteries, your saved dictations may be permanently lost.
The rechargeable battery* is charged also when the
dictation machine is switched on. In this case, however,
charging will take a longer time.
Direct charging of the rechargeable battery
• Switch off the dictation machine by moving the On/Off
slide switch upwards to »OFF/HOLD«.
• Plug the power supply* into the mains socket.
• Connect the USB plug of the power supply* cable to
the »PC/USB« socket of the dictation machine.
– After a short time the display indicates that the batte-
ries are recharged and the green recording indicator
will be blinking.
– The flat rechargeable battery* will be fully recharged
after about 4 hours. The charging indicator and the
recording indicator then go out.
Pull the power supply* from the socket and the power

Note:
When the rechargeable battery is flat (total discharge), it
may take up to two hours until the load indicator appears
on the display. Please check if the dictation machine and
the power supply work accurately. To do so, take out the
rechargeable battery. Then connect the dictation machine
with the mains supply and switch on the dication machine.

Notes on rechargeable battery 466
New rechargeable batteries do not reach full capacity until
they have been recharged several times. For this reason
the operating time for new rechargeable batteries in some
rare cases is less than 3 hours.
When the rechargeable battery* is fully charged, you can
use the dictation machine up to 12 hours (DSS Standard
Play).
The rechargeable batteries’ charge state is shown on the
dictation machine display:
« Rechargeable battery* charged;
– »
– » « Rechargeable battery* partly discharged;
– » « Rechargeable battery* weak;
– » « Rechargeable battery* nearly flat.
Note:
The rechargeable battery* must always be fully charged in
the dictation machine to make sure that the real charging
state is displayed.
Before the rechargeable battery* is completely flat a short
warning beep will sound and the rechargeable battery*
symbol »
a warning signal in the recording mode. You will still be
able to dictate and play-back for a few minutes before the
dictation machine automatically switches off. However,
we recommend either starting the charging process after
the warning beep and the flashing rechargeable battery*
symbol » « or to use the power supply* to operate the
dictation machine.
The dictation machine’s operating system is ”shut down”
(as for a PC) when it is switched off. Sufficient power must
still be available for this purpose. If, after the dictation
machine has automatically switched off, you switch it back
on again without plugging in the power supply* or if the
rechargeable batteries have not been recharged, your
saved dictations may be permanently lost.

PREPARATION

Inserting and removing replaceable memory
cards
You can use memory cards (not included in delivery) instead
of the internal memory.
Use Digta Cards supplied as accessories by Grundig Business
Systems.
• Push the memory card into the slot with the side with
the diagonal corner facing the direction shown on the
back of the device.
Note:
Do not insert the card with force. Slight pressure is sufficient.
To remove the card press the memory card slightly until
the snapping mechanism unlocks.
Do not remove the cards when recording is running or
during data transfer from PC to PC. This can result in
data loss.
If a full memory card (e.g. with over 300 dictations) is
inserted into the dictation machine with factory default
settings (or with a reset dictation counter), it takes up
to 20 seconds to create a new dictation. This time is
required for the dictation machine to search for the first
free dictation number starting from dictation number 1.
This time also varies depending on the manufacturer of
the memory card.
If you use MultiMediaCards/SecureDigital Cards (MMC/
SD) with insufficient writing speed, »Card not suppor-
ted!« will appear in the display.
Make sure that the electrical contacts on the underside of the memory card are not subjected to physical
stress. The cards are not affected by dirt or moisture,
but they may only be put into the dictation machine
when they are clean and dry.
15
PREPARATION
New memory cards must be formatted before any writing can be done.
It is essential that the notes in the chapter “THE MENU
– Formatting” be observed.
___________________________________
Formatting replaceable memory cards
Memory cards – including those which have been preformatted – must first be formatted with the dictation machine
prior to initial writing.
If an error message appears after a non-formatted memory
card is inserted, confirm this with the right selection button
»
«.
The » Format, delete all?« display should also be acknow-
ledged with the right selection button » «.
The memory card may not be formatted as a removable
disk using a PC formatting function.
New memory cards may only be formatted using the
“Formatting” menu function. It is essential that the notes in
the “THE MENU - Formatting” chapter be observed.
We recommend reformatting the memory card on a PC
once it has been overwritten several times. The memory
card is defragmented during formatting. Access to the next
dictations is then faster.

easy Mode - Menu Mode
The easy Mode serves for making the pure dictation functionality of the Digta 422 available for the author.
The menu functions are switched off in the easy Mode. Instead
of this, a delete button and an insert button are permanently
available.
The advantages of the easy Mode are:
- All important functions (dictating-, delete- and insert
functions) are available on the buttons.
- The display is more neatly designed because only the
dictation information is displayed.
- Operating errors of rarley used functions (e.g. change
folder, delete the entire memory, restore counter, insert
info/index) are excluded.
- All device settings (e.g. microphone sensitivity, length
of display illumination) which have been set in the Menu
Mode remain after switching over to the easy Mode.
Note:
GRUNDIG Business Systems recommends to perform all settings in the Menu Mode, to activate the desired workflow functions and then switchover to the easy Mode.
________________________
Switchover from easy Mode - Menu Mode
The switchover from the easy Mode to Menu Mode is
achieved through switching on the Digta 422.
