When the player is used in a place free of vibration,
it is recommended to release the D.A.S.C. to ex-

· Rechargeable batteries can be recharged for
about 500 times. When the playable time per
recharge reduces, please newly purchase the
optional NB-130, NB-77 or NB-88 rechargeable
batteries.
· We recommend the use of alkaline batteries
(LR6) because the playable time may some-
times extremely short when manganese batter-
ies are used.
· Always replace all batteries at a time.
5 After recharging, unplug the AC
adaptor from this unit.
· Whenusingarechargeablebatterieswhicharenew
or which have not been used for more than 2
months, the operating period may be shorter than

The original performance of the battery perfor-
mance can be recovered by repeating this cycle a
few times.
· Be sure to close the top cover of the unit before
proceeding to recharging.
· Recharging is not possible during playback. Be
sure to set the power OFF before starting re-
charging.
· Recharging completes in about 4.0 hours with
