Olympus DM-520 Einleitendes Handbuch

Read the following descriptions carefully 

when you use the Ni-MH rechargeable 

batteries.
Discharging:
The rechargeable batteries self-discharge 

while this is not in use. Be sure to charge 

them regularly before use.
Operating temperature:
The rechargeable batteries are chemical 

products. The rechargeable batteries 

efficiency may fluctuate even when 

operating within the recommended 

temperature range. This is an inherent 

nature of such products.
Recommended temperature range:
When operating appliance:

  0°C - 42°C/ 32°F - 107.6°F

  5°C - 35°C/ 41°F - 95°F

  –20°C - 30°C/ –4°F - 86°F

Using the rechargeable batteries outside 

the above temperature range may result in 

declining efficiency and shorter battery life. 

In order to prevent battery leakage or rust, 

remove the rechargeable batteries from the 

products when you will not be using them 

for a long time, and store them separately.

•  This recorder is designed to fully charge 

batteries regardless of their energy level. 

However, for best results when charging 

newly purchased rechargeable batteries 

or batteries that have not been used 

for a long time (more than one month), 

it is recommended to fully charge the 

batteries then discharge repeatedly for 2 

to 3 times.

•  When disposing rechargeable batteries, 

always observe the local laws and 

regulations. Contact you local recycling 

center for proper disposal methods.

•  If Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are not 

fully discharged, protect against short-

circuiting (e.g. by taping the contacts) 

before disposing.
