ferably Alkaline) batteries, type R6, UM3 or

Nickel-Cadmium batteries, however, the
battery indicator is not valid for Nickel-Cad­
mium batteries..

they are not to be used again for a long period.
The battery supply is switched off when the 6 V DC socket is in use. When
changing over to battery supply, pull out the plug from the 6 V DC socket.

The indicator on the display shows the condition of the Alkaline batteries or the
rechargeable battery SBC 6408. The battery voltage is respectively good (1.), suf­
ficient (2.), weak (3.) or empty (4., flashing). Replace or recharge weak batteries.
When the 'empty' indication (4.) starts flashing, the CD player will shut off.
The average playing time using Alkaline batteries is about 6 hours, and using the
rechargeable battery SBC 6408 about 2 hours.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY SBC 6408
Instead of normal batteries, you can use
the rechargeable battery SBC 6408.
• Open the battery door, move the lever 0
to the right and insert the battery.
• This battery can be charged in the CD
player which is connected to the mains
adapter. After approx 5 hours, the battery is
fully charged.
• The charging progress is indicated by a flashing bar in the battery indicator.
• If the CD player is used during charging, the charging time will be longer.
• Prevent t)ie battery from being discharged completely; this would affect its
charging capacity and lifetime.
• If the battery is not to be used for a long period, store it fully charged outside
the CD player. Batteries, even when not in use, discharge slowly, so recharge the
battery every 6 months to prevent it from being discharged completely.
• If the fully charged battery becomes exhausted relatively quickly, it may be
worn out and be due for replacement. A new or additional battery is available
from your dealer under type number SBC 6408. Do not throw batteries in the bin.
