L. Rechargeable Battery Installation and Use
The player utilizes a set of long-life NiMH batteries for portable power
supply. The NiMH battery pack is specially designed for your player,
please consult your dealer for purchasing the battery pack. NiMH bat-
teries feature high storage capacity and low level of degradation. This
means the NiMH batteries doesn’t have “Memory Effect” and thus can
be recharged safely regardless of whether the battery is fully or only
partially spent. 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 to not use the battery for an extended period of time (say,
one week or longer), we recommend that you first fully charge the
battery and store it away properly. For longer periods of storage, please
recharge the battery at least once every two months to maintain the
battery in its best condition. Please under no circumstances short out
the battery, 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 re-
charge takes approximately five-hours and one full charge can provide
power the player for approximately 3 hours.
During recharge, the light next to the DC power input will light up red.
Once fully recharged, the light will turn green. At this point you may
remove the wall plug and cease charging.
Precautions related to Battery Recharge:
1. Once the battery has been fully spent, please immediately recharge
the battery (regardless of whether you plan to use battery power
again soon) in order to maximize battery life.
2. To charge the battery, please connect the power jack directly into
the D1501 and leave the POWER switch in the off position.
