9. 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. Please fully
charge the battery prior to first use.
NOTE: When the DVD player is used with the battery as a power
source, ensure that the battery has been charged for at least eight
hours prior to connecting it to the DVD player.
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 re-
charge the battery at least once every two months to maintain the
battery in optimum condition. Do not 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 approximately 3 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 (regard-
less 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 DVD player and leave the POWER switch in the off position.
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.
2. Recharge efficiency will degrade when environmental temperatures
drop below 50
