When you are not going to use the unit for an
extended time
When storing the unit in a cupboard or cabinet,
it is recommended that you place a desiccant
(silica gel) in with it.
The battery used in this unit is a rechargeable
lithium-ion battery. It is susceptible to humidity
and temperature and the effect increases the
more the temperature rises or falls. In cold areas,
the full charge indication may not appear or the
low battery indication may appear for about
5 minutes after starting use. At high
temperatures, the protection function may be
triggered, making it impossible to use the unit.
Be sure to detach the battery after use.
If the battery is left inserted, a minute amount
of current continues to flow even if the unit’s
power is off. Keeping the unit in this state may
result in over discharge of the battery. This
may result in you not being able to use the
battery even after it is charged.
The battery should be stored in the vinyl bag
so metal does not come into contact with the
terminals.
The battery should be stored in a cool place
free from humidity, with as constant
temperature as possible. (Recommended
temperature: 15 °C to 25 °C (59 °F to 77 °F),
Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%)
Extremely high temperatures or low
temperatures will shorten the life of the battery.
If the battery is kept in high-temperature, high-
humidity, or oily-smoky places, the terminals
may rust and cause malfunctions.
To store the battery for a long period of time,
we recommend you charge it once every year
and store it again after you have completely
used up the charged capacity.
Dust and other matter attached to the battery
terminals should be removed.
Prepare spare batteries when going out for
recording.
Prepare enough batteries to last 3 to 4 times
the period you are planning to record.
Cold weather, such as when skiing, can
shorten the recording period.
If you drop the battery accidentally, check to
see if the terminals are damaged.
Inserting a battery with damaged terminals can
damage the unit or AC adaptor.
Do not throw old battery into fire.
Heating a battery or throwing it into a fire may
result in an explosion.
If the operating time is very short even after the
battery has been recharged, the battery has
worn out. Please purchase a new battery.
If the temperature of the battery is extremely
high or extremely low, charging may take time
or the battery may not be charged.
If the CHARGE lamp keeps flashing, make
sure that the terminals of the battery or the AC
adaptor are not exposed to dirt, foreign objects
or dust, then reconnect them properly.
If the charging lamp is still flashing, something
may be wrong with the battery or AC adaptor.
Contact consumer support (l 122, 123).
If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, radio
reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
adaptor 1 m (3.3 feet) or more away from the
radio.
When using the AC adaptor, it may generate
whirring sounds. However, this is normal.
After use, be sure to disconnect the AC
adaptor. (If it is left connected, a minute
amount of current is consumed.)
Always keep the electrodes of the AC adaptor
and battery clean.
When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with a
dry soft cloth.
In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may form on the LCD monitor.
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
When the unit has become very cold, for
example due to storage in a cold area, its LCD
monitor will be slightly darker than usual
immediately after the power is turned on. The
normal brightness will be restored when the
unit’s internal temperature rises.
