Notes
• Charging is not possible during recording,
shooting or playback.
• When playing a voice/music file, the recorder
may be reset due to the reduction of the voltage
output of the battery depending on the volume
level even if [
º
] is displayed in the battery
indicator. In this case, lower the volume of the
recorder.
• Do not put in or take out the battery or AC adapter
when the recorder power is on or when this
recorder is connected to another device. It may
cause problems with the values and functions set
in the recorder.
• The charger can be used within the range of AC 100
V to AC 240 V (50/60 Hz). When using the charger
abroad, you may need a plug adapter to convert
the plug to the shape of the AC wall outlet. For
details, ask at your local electrical shop or travel
agent.
• Do not use travel voltage converters as they could
damage your charger.
• The recorder cannot be charged when the PC is
not turned on. It may not also be charged when
the PC is in standby, hibernate, or sleep mode.
• Do not charge the recorder with the USB hub
connected.
• You cannot charge when [

Cautions concerning the rechargeable battery
Read the following descriptions carefully when you
use the lithium ion battery (LI-42B).
Discharging:
The rechargeable battery self-discharge while
this is not in use. Be sure to charge them regularly
before use.
Operating temperature:
The rechargeable battery is chemical products.
The rechargeable battery efficiency may fluctuate
even when operating within the recommended
temperature range. This is an inherent nature of
such products.
Recommended temperature range:
When operating appliance:
0°C - 42°C/ 32°F - 107.6°F
Charging:
5°C - 35°C/ 41°F - 95°F
Storage for a long period:
–20°C - 30°C/ –4°F - 86°F
Using the rechargeable battery outside the
above temperature range may result in declining
efficiency and shorter battery life. In order to
prevent battery leakage or rust, remove the
rechargeable battery from the products when you
will not be using them for a long time, and store
them separately.
