Precautions for battery pack operation
Operation of the battery pack
Charge the battery pack fully before using it for the first time.
When the ambient temperature is too high, the battery pack may be unusable due to activation of
protection circuitry.
When the portable DVD player is powered from the battery pack and if the player has not been
operated for about 10 minutes with the power switched on, the player will turn off automatically.
(Auto power off)
The battery pack becomes hot after use and the portable DVD player also becomes hot during use.
This is not a malfunction.
When the battery pack is not to be used for a long period, be sure to remove it from the portable
DVD player. If the battery pack is left installed, a continual flow of weak current will over-discharge it
and eventually it will become unusable even when you try to charge it later.
If the portable DVD player is switched on while the battery pack is not fully charged, the operation
may sometimes be unstable. Be sure to charge the battery pack fully before use.
Storage
The battery pack should be stored in an ambient temperature between 15°C and 25°C. Avoid
storing it in extremely low or high temperatures, in high humidity or in a place subject to soot, etc.
When the battery pack is stored for a long period, it is recommended to discharge it fully on the
portable DVD player at least once a year, recharge it fully and return it to store.
Service life and disposal
When the charging time or available operation time becomes extremely short, the battery may be
reaching the end of its life. The battery pack can be used for about 300 cycles of recharging and
operations.
To dispose of a used battery pack, wrap a piece of tape around the terminal section and treat it in
compliance with your local regulations.
Caution:
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
