To check the battery level
When the player is stopped, a battery indicator is displayed on the screen. Recharge the battery, 
when  
is 
displayed or the CHARGE indicator flashes.
The battery indicator is not displayed when a DVD or JPEG file are being played. Stop the player 
and check the battery level.

Using with the Car Battery Adaptor
Use the car battery adaptor (supplied) to supply power from the cigarette lighter socket to the 
player. The adaptor is for a 12V car battery. Do not use it with a 24V car battery. The adaptor is 
also for use with negatively grounded cars. Do not use it with cars grounded positively.
z
Hint
If the car adaptor interferes with car operation, use a commercial cigarette lighter extension cord.
Notes
• Do not use the car adaptor if it has been dropped or damaged.
• Arrange the cord so as not to interfere with the driver. Also, do not place the LCD panel where the driver 
can watch.
• If the picture is not clear, keep the player away from the car battery adaptor.
• Use the car battery adaptor with the car engine running. If it is used with the car engine off, the car battery 
may become unusable.
• If the cigarette lighter socket is dirty with ash, etc, a bad connection may cause the plug to heat up. Always 
clean well before use.
• The car battery adaptor may heat up while charging or after a long period of use. That is not a malfunction.
After using the car battery adaptor
After turning the player off, disconnect the car battery adaptor from the cigarette lighter socket.
Notes
• Do not turn off the car engine while the player is turned on. Doing so stops the power supply and may cause 
damage to the player.
• Disconnect the car battery adaptor after use. Since some cars supply power to the cigarette lighter socket 
even when the engine is turned off, the car battery may discharge over time.
• When disconnecting the car battery adaptor, hold the plug to pull it out.
• When listening to the car radio, disconnect the car battery adaptor from the cigarette lighter socket to avoid 
noise.
