Checking the remaining
amount of battery charge
The remaining amount of battery charge is
shown by the battery indicator ( ) on
the remote control display during oper-
ation.
How to read the battery indicator
●
When the battery is completely dis-
charged, the whole battery indicator will
flash. Recharge the battery or replace
the alkaline battery with a new one.
●
When the battery has completely run
out, “Lo BATT” will appear in the dis-
play. Then, the power will be discon-
nected automatically.
Notes:
●
When the AC adaptor included with this
unit or an optionally available car adaptor
is used, the battery indicator will not be
shown.
●
The number of bars shown in the battery
indicator may increase or decrease, de-
pending on the operation being per-
formed. This is normal.
●
When the rechargeable battery and the
alkaline battery are used at the same time,
the rechargeable battery is used first, and
then the alkaline battery.
Since the battery indicator shows the re-
maining amount of the particular battery
being used, the number of bars will in-
crease when the unit switches to the al-
kaline battery.
■
To prevent the unit from
being operated by mistake
To avoid operations being started by ac-
cidentally pressing the buttons, use the
hold function.
Move the HOLD switch to the safety posi-
tion (direction indicated by the arrow).
●
When the unit is in the safety mode,
pressing the buttons will have no effect.
●
To cancel the safety mode, move the
HOLD switch away from the safety po-
sition (the opposite direction of the
arrow).
If the hold function is active while the
power is turned off, the power cannot be
turned on by mistake and the battery will
not be accidentally drained.
(The auto-play function will be activated.)
