turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.

Battery Indicator
The battery indicator appears on the display of the remote control. When the indication
changes as follows, power will be shut off a short while after.
Rechargeable battery: Recharge it.
Dry-cell battery: Replace it with new one.
Notes:
• The battery indicator appears when an MD is loaded in the unit.
• The battery indicator also appears when the AC adaptor is used. However, it has no mean-
ing.
Batteries
• Before replacing batteries, always turn off the unit.
Rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery (BN-R127):
• Use only the rechargeable battery (BN-R127) supplied with the unit.
• If the power delivered by the battery lasts for a very short time after recharging, it means
that the battery’s service life is over. Do not use it any more.
• Recharging already charged battery will shorten its service life.
• When recharging battery for the first time or when it has not been used for a long period of
time, the play time may be shorter than usual. In a case like this, repeatedly recharge and
discharge the battery. This will restore it to its regular state.
• Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of rechargeable battery since this may
cause short-circuiting which is dangerous.
• Recharging shall be made at the temperature from 10°C to 35°C.
Dry cell battery and rechargeable battery:
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed the following points.
• Align the ª and · polarities properly when inserting the batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a long period of time.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire, and do not short-circuit, disassemble or subject them to
excessive heat.
• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Carrying batteries:
When putting dry cell or rechargeable batteries in a pocket or bag, ensure that no other metal
objects such as a necklace are placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause short-
circuiting which, in turn, may cause a fire.
Be absolutely sure to carry the rechargeable battery in the battery carrying case.
