CONVENIENT OPERATION OF THE UNIT
■ Checking the remaining amount
of battery charge
The remaining amount of battery charge
is shown by the battery indicator (
)
during operation.
< How to read the battery indicator >
● When the battery is completely discharged,
the whole battery indicator will flash. Re-
charge the battery or replace the alkaline
battery with a new one.
● When the battery has run completely out,
“BATT EMPTY” (main unit) and “Lo BATT”
(remote control unit) will appear. Then, the
power will be disconnected automatically.
Notes:
● When using the unit with an alkaline bat-
tery or a rechargeable battery, the battery
indicator will not correctly display the remain-
ing capacity for approximately 20 seconds
after the power has been turned on.
● When the AC adaptor included with this unit
or a separately available car adaptor is
used, the battery indicator will not be shown.
● The number of bars shown in the battery
indicator may increase or decrease, de-
pending on the operation being performed.
This is normal.
● When the rechargeable battery and the al-
kaline battery are used at the same time,
the rechargeable battery is used first, then
the alkaline battery.
Since the battery indicator shows the re-
maining amount of the particular battery
being used, the number of bars will in-
crease when the unit switches to the al-
kaline battery.
