Charging the Reader

Charging the Reader is required when using for the first time 
or when the remaining battery power is running low. Turn on 
the Reader, and then charge in one of the following two ways.

 Connect to a computer via USB (Refer to the Quick Start Guide 

). 

(Charging time: approx. 4 hours*)

 Connect to an AC outlet using the AC Adaptor for Reader (AC-

S5220E) (optional). 

(Charging time: approx. 2.5 hours*)

*  Approximate time required to fully charge the battery.

 When you connect the Reader to your computer, 

 (indicating 

connection via USB) is displayed on the Reader’s screen. If the 

battery has been fully depleted, it takes approximately 5 minutes 

until 

 is displayed, during which time you will not be able to turn 

on the Reader by the POWER switch. In this case, wait until 

 is 

displayed. 

The charge indicator lights up in red while 

 is not displayed, 

while the Reader is charging.

 If the remaining battery power of a connected notebook computer 

is low, charging via USB connection may not be possible.

 If you connect the Reader to a notebook computer which is not 

connected to an AC outlet, the battery of the notebook computer 

will be consumed. Do not leave the Reader connected to a 

notebook computer which is not connected to an AC outlet for an 

extended period.

 Connecting the Reader via a USB hub or extension cable may not 

work and is not supported. Connect the USB cable directly to the 

computer.
