Operating the Recorder
7. Battery Charging
Before using the Recorder, check battery charge level. If there is a necessity, charge the internal battery
of the Recorder by following the procedure: remove memory card from the Recorder, and insert it into
memory card slot, charging cable included. Then connect the cable to the PC or any power supply unit
that has a 5 volt USB connector with a current of at least 500 mA, no more than 1000 mA. The red LED
will be on to indicate battery charging, which takes 3-4 hours. After that the green LED will be on to
indicate charging has been completed. Disconnect the cable off the PC or charger,
then gently press the
inner part of the slot with cable connector and remove the cable from the Recorder.
Attention!!! Pulling the cable out of the Recorder may damage memory card slot, which is not covered
by warranty.
Important!!! In order to prevent battery failure, do not store the device in a discharged state. Charge it
at least once a month.

Connect a DC voltage source (3.6-6V) to connectors 1 (gold wire - minus) and 2 (red wire - plus) of the
cable from the delivery set. If the voltage source is a Li-Pol battery, then by connecting the contacts 2
and 3 (green wire) of the cable you can provide current of 100 mA (by connecting an adapter to the
voice recorder and connecting the adapter to the computer's USB)
