Charging the battery
The base station works as the battery charging 
unit. Charge the rechargeable battery before 
starting to use the headphones.
You can continuously use the headphones for 
about 10 hours after full battery charge.
1  Make sure that the headphones are 
turned off.
You cannot charge the battery of the 
headphones when the headphones 
are turned on. Press POWER to turn 
the Power indicator off.
2  Put on the headphones on the 
base station so that their charging 
terminals contact firmly.
When putting the headphones on the base 
station, hold them and adjust their position 
with your both hands to assure the contact 
of the terminals.
Notes on the battery and charging
•  To make battery life longer:
–  charging the battery within the 
temperature range of 10ºC – 35ºC.
–  not using the headphones in excessively 
cold places. Low temperature decreases 
battery life.
–  charging the battery after its complete 
discharging. Charging before complete 
discharge makes the battery life 
gradually shorter.
•  Replace the batteries when their lives 
become about half or the playback sound 
become constantly noisy. 
Use the exclusive rechargeable Ni-MH 
battery J47958 only. When purchasing 
the battery, consult the dealer where you 
bought the product.
•  Replace two batteries at the same time 
when replacing.
3  Confirm the CHARGE indicator 
lights up.
If the charge indicator does not light up, 
return steps 1 and 2 after checking the 
connection of the AC adaptor.
•  It takes about 30 hours to charge the 
batteries fully.
•  30-hour charging may not charge the 
battery fully depending on the battery or 
other conditions.
•  The cycle life of the rechargeable battery 
is approximately 500 times. (It varies 
depending on the conditions when 
charging.)
•  The battery leaks its charge little by little 
even when the headphones’ power is off, 
due to its characteristics.
