Special rechargeable
batteries
Ordinary dry cell
batteries/rechargeable
batteries
Rechargeable batteries
• Only the BN-R1211 battery can be recharged.
• If the power delivered by the batteries lasts for a very short
time after recharging, it means that the batteries’ service life is
over. Do not use them any more.
• Recharging already charged batteries will shorten their service
life.
• When recharging batteries for the first time or when they have
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 batteries. This will restore them to their regular
state.
• Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of re-
chargeable batteries since this may cause short-circuiting which
is dangerous.
• Do not peel off the plastic covering on the rechargeable batter-
ies. Short-circuiting may occur which is dangerous.
Dry cell batteries / rechargeable
batteries
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed
the following points.
• Align the ª and · polarities properly when inserting the bat-
teries.
• Do not mix different types or makes of batteries or old and new
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, dis-
assemble or subject them to excessive heat.
• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Carrying dry cell batteries /
rechargeable batteries around
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-circuit-
ing which, in turn, may cause a fire.
When purchasing rechargeable
batteries
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made by JVC
have a construction designed to make it impossible to recharge
ordinary batteries.
To use rechargeable batteries, be absolutely sure to purchase the
rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries designed especially for this unit.
Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
BN-R1211 (set of 2)
For details, check with your dealer.
AC adaptor
• Handle the AC adaptor carefully. Improper handling is dan-
gerous.
• Do not touch it with wet hands.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of it.
• Do not forcibly bend it.
• Be sure to connect only the AC adaptor provided with the
unit.
• Disconnect the AC adaptor from the power outlet if the unit is
not going to be used for a long time.
Notice about the rechargeable battery
The battery is designated recyclable.
Please follow your local recycling regulations.
