Notes on the DICT/BATT lamp
•BM-577 only: In some cases when the unit is used with rechargeable
batteries, only the DICT/BATT ( ) and BATT ( ) lamps will light
even though the batteries have been fully charged.
•After the batteries have been used for a while, the DICT/BATT lamp may
flicker with the playback sound when you turn up the volume; however,
this does not mean that you need to change the batteries.
•The unit will play back normally for a while even after the DICT/BATT
lamp dims. However, replace the batteries as soon as you can. If you do
not, subsequent recording will not be done correctly.
Notes on batteries
•Do not charge a dry battery.
•Do not use a new battery with an old one.
•Do not use different types of batteries.
•When you do not use the unit for a long time, remove the batteries to
avoid any damage caused by battery leakage and subsequent corrosion.
•Dry batteries will not be expended when another power source is
connected.
