Additional information
Precautions
On safety
Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 3V
jack.
On power sources
• Use house current, nickel metal hydride
rechargeable battery, or LR6 (size AA)
battery.
• For use in your house: Use the AC power
adaptor supplied with this recorder. Do not
use any other AC power adaptor since it may
cause the recorder to malfunction.
• Connect the AC power adaptor to an easily
accessible AC outlet. Should you notice an
abnormality in the AC power adaptor,
disconnect it from the AC outlet immediately.
• The recorder is not disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
recorder itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use this recorder for a
long time, be sure to disconnect the power
supply (AC power adaptor, dry battery, or
rechargeable battery). To remove the AC
power adaptor from the wall outlet, grasp the
adaptor plug itself; never pull the cord.
On heat build-up
Heat may build up in the recorder if it is used
for an extended period of time. This, however,
is not a malfunction.
On installation
• If you use the recorder at a place subject to
static or electrical noise, the recording may
not be properly done or the recorded data may
be lost. If you perform a transfer operation at
such a place, the track’s transfer authorization
may be lost.
• Never use the recorder where it will be
subjected to extremes of light, temperature,
moisture or vibration.
• Never wrap the recorder in anything when it is
being used with the AC power adaptor. Heat
build-up in the recorder may cause
malfunction or damage.
On the earphones
Road safety
Do not use earphones while driving, cycling, or
operating any motorized vehicle. It may create
a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. It
can also be potentially dangerous to play your
recorder at high volume while walking,
especially at pedestrian crossings. You should
exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using earphones at high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous, loud and
extended play. If you experience a ringing in
your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue
use.
Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will
allow you to hear outside sounds and to be
considerate of the people around you.
On the remote control
The supplied remote control is designed for use
with this recorder only. The recorder cannot be
operated with a remote control that was
supplied with another device.
On charging
• Do not charge any other battery beside the
supplied one or the one designated for it (NH-
14WM).
• Be sure to use the supplied AC power adaptor.
• Charge the rechargeable battery at a
temperature of +5
°C (+41°F) to +35°C
(+95
°F).
• The recorder may become hot during the
charging procedure; this, however poses no
danger.
• Because of the battery’s characteristics, the
capacity of the rechargeable battery may be
smaller than normal when it is used for the
first time or after a long period of disuse. In
this case, charge and discharge the battery
several times. The normal battery life will be
restored.
