Powering the unit
Charging the battery
When the AC power adapter is connected to the unit, the internal battery starts
charging. A battery charge indicator appears on the display during charging.
When the battery is fully charged, the LCD display shows “FULL CHARGE”
before it turns off. The charging process takes about 4 hours at ambient
temperature.
Confirming full battery charge
After the charging process is complete, turn on the unit while the AC power
adaptor is still connected, and make sure that the
icon appears.
Hints
• The internal battery charges even when the unit is in use, as long as the AC power adapter
is connected. However, the charge time is considerably longer than when the internal
battery is charged as outlined above.
• If the unit has not been charged for some time, the internal battery level may be depleted.
When the unit is turned on, the low battery level may cause the battery icon at the top left
corner of the LCD display not to appear.
To recover, fully charge the battery using the supplied AC power adapter. Do not remove
the adapter while charging is in progress.
