Power Sources
Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries (automatically take over if you
disconnect the unit from its external power source). The number of
batteries that power your unit and that come with it depends on the
model that you have purchased. The table below gives detailed
information.
Possible to switch from an external power source to battery power
or vice versa without affecting operation.
The battery recharges automatically when the unit is connected to
an external power source (with the AC adapter/charger).
Note: When the ambient temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F) or when it reaches or
exceeds about 40 °C, the batteries can either charge more slowly than
usual, or not charge at all, depending on the internal temperature of your
unit.
For more information, see Electrical Safety Information on page 16.
