2.5.4 Battery Status for NiMH Rechargeable Batteries
The battery status display is a guide to battery capacity when using
NiMH rechargeable batteries supplied or recommended by
SCHILLER. If Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries are used, a
different battery symbol is displayed (see next page).
Battery Condition
Batteries deteriorate over time and must be replaced. An indication of
battery condition is given when batteries are first placed in the
recorder after a full charge, as follows:
The battery symbol in the upper right of the screen, indicates the
battery status. When the battery is full, the symbol is filled and gives
an indication of current battery capacity as it reduces during the
recording. The empty symbol indicates that the capacity is limited and
that the batteries should be changed. If the batteries are not changed
during this period, a warning message is given that the batteries must
be changed. If the batteries are still not changed an error message is
displayed before the recorder switches off (see next page).

placed at the first opportunity.
• When recording is stopped because of low battery capacity, and the
batteries are replaced within 5 hours of the recorder switching off,
the recording will continue (see Changing the Batteries During a 48
