      If your Sony Voice Recorder does not operate, even when you press a button, the batteries may be weak. Replace them with new ones. Ensure the device is powered on by sliding the HOLD•POWER ON/OFF switch in the direction of “POWER ON/OFF” for more than 1 second. Also, check if the HOLD function is activated; if so, slide the HOLD•POWER ON/OFF switch to the center.

    • A

      If the charging indicator is not displayed or disappears while charging your Sony Voice Recorder, ensure you have inserted rechargeable batteries correctly. Verify the battery orientation and use only NH-AAA rechargeable batteries. Replace old batteries if they have deteriorated. Reconnect the USB cable properly. If “USB??” is set to “?” in the menu, change it to “?”. Stop any playback or radio before charging.
