Charging the battery
Your jukebox has a built-in Lithium-Ion battery. It is not necessary
to fully charge or completely discharge the battery power each
time. However, you may want to fully charge the battery to
maximize playing time.
To charge the battery:
1Open the cover over your jukebox’s power connector. For the
location of the power connector, see “Left” on page 8.
2Connect the AC adapter to your jukebox’s power connector.
3Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet. As the battery charges,
the battery icon on the LCD animates. When fully charged,
the icon no longer animates and Battery Charging Complete
is displayed on the LCD.
