INTERNAL BATTERY
The DVD Player incorporates an integral Lithium Polymer battery for high
performance and optimum playback times. The battery has no memory effect
and can be charged safely, regardless of whether the battery is fully or partially
discharged.
Playback time is approximately 1.5 hours after a full charge, when used under
normal operating conditions.
First Time Use
The battery should be charged for a minimum of 4 hours for the initial charge
to maximize the battery life thereafter.
Battery Charging
Connect the DVD player to the supplied mains adaptor, the LED indicator will
flash GREEN when the battery is charging and will turn solid GREEN once the
battery has received a full charge.
The battery will charge (as required) when power is available. The DVD player
can be in use whilst the battery charges.
Charge time for a fully discharged battery is approximately 2 -3 hours.
Note:
In the event of a battery charging error, the battery charging LED indicator
will 'flash'. Please verify that the correct 9.0Vdc 1Amp mains adaptor is
being used (identified by the 'VOYAGER VYCDVD SERIES' sticker).
Disconnect and re-connect the mains adaptor until the fault clears.
If the fault does not clear, then contact your dealer for repair.
It is recommended that the internal battery is recharged fully every 4months,
in order to prevent deep battery discharge and possible damage.
Failure to do so may result in the battery failing to hold a charge and will not
be considered manufacturing defect and therefore not covered under the
Manufacturers Warranty.
Battery Replacement
The internal battery is not user replaceable, once it no longer holds its charge
(approx. 300 charging cycles) please contact your VOYAGER Authorised Service
Centre, for a replacement battery to be fitted by a qualified engineer.
Low Battery Warning
A low battery warning will appear on-screen when the battery is nearly exhausted.
Please connect the supplied mains adaptor at this time to either continue using
the player and/or recharge the battery.

VIDEO COMPRESSION FORMATS
Video Compression Formats
The use of the DivX encoder is recommended in order to compress movies
and then play upon this player. Whilst there are many movie formats and
compression software available, most use MPEG4 algorithms at their heart.
DivX is just one such MPEG4 compressor, but it is the most widely used and
recognised by Sony, Panasonic and other manufacturers.
This device is capable of DivX playback in order to provide a reliable and
consistent playback performance.
When using the official DivX encoder (download from www.DivX.com at a
small charge) and always use the “Home Theatre” option for optimum
compression and suitable playback quality upon the player. Maintain the
16:9 ratio for full screen viewing.
If your DivX movie is still unable to be played upon the Voyager Player then
please change the file extension from .divx to .avi and re-try.
Use of other compression software, or the playback of other format files
may have unreliable or unpredictable results and is not recommended.
