The player is powered by a lithium-polymer battery. It has no memory effect and thus it
can be recharged at any time regardless of whether it is fully or partially discharged.
The unit can be recharged when it is powered on or off. When the power is off, it takes
about 3～4 hours to fully charge the battery. When the power is on, it takes approximately
ten hours to charge the battery. When fully charged, the battery can be used for about
four hours.
The unit can be charged using the AC/DC Adapter or the Vehicle DC Power Adapter.
By AC/DC Adapter:
Connect the AC/DC adapter to the the unit, then plug the adapter
into a 0 VAC outlet.
By Vehicle DC Power Adapter:
Plug one end of the dapter into the jack on the unit, then
plug the other end into the socket of a car.
Do not charge the DVD player in the vehicle when the vehicle is not running.
