Charging Tips/Facts
It takes about 15 hours to charge new or fully discharged nickel-
cadmium batteries (special or standard) in the CD player while it is
not being used to play CDs. Subsequent charges take 12–15 hours.
You can play a CD while recharging the special nickel-cadmium bat-
teries. However, this will cause the batteries to recharge more slowly.
Under normal usage conditions, nickel-cadmium batteries can be
recharged about 500 times.
