While charging
Symptom Cause/Solution
The rechargeable
battery does not
start charging. The
rechargeable battery
cannot be fully
charged. • The rechargeable battery or the dry battery has been inserted
incorrectly or the AC power adaptor has been connected
incorrectly.
, Insert the battery correctly or connect the AC power adaptor
correctly.
• The terminals of the battery charging stand is dirty.
, Clean the terminals with a dry cloth.
• Because of the battery’s characteristics, the capacity of the
rechargeable battery may be smaller than normal when it is used
for the first time or after a long period of disuse.
, Charge and discharge the battery several times. The normal
battery life will be restored.
• The rechargeable battery is drained (nothing appears in the
display window).
, Charge the rechargeable battery. It takes one minute after
placing the recorder on the battery charging stand for an
indication to appear and charging to start. If charging does not
start even after a minute, replace the recorder on the battery
charging stand again.
The rechargeable
battery has become
drained even when
the recorder was not
used for a while. • The quick mode was set to “QUICK”.
, If you set the quick mode to “QUICK”, the power stays on
inside recorder even when there is no operation, causing the
battery life to shorten. If the battery is not fully charged, the
rechargeable battery may become drained after a while. If this
happens, charge the rechargeable battery again.
Even when fully
charged, the life of
the battery is only
about half what it
normally is. • The useful life of the rechargeable battery may be ending.
, Replace the rechargeable battery with the new one.
