By adjusting the settings or managing the power supply properly, it is possible 

to save the battery power and use the player for a longer time.

If you press the  button to pause playback or receiving an FM broadcast 

(NW-E013F/E015F/E016F only), after “POWER OFF” appears, the display 

disappears and the player enters the Sleep status automatically after a few 

seconds. The batteries are consumed a little in the Sleep status.

Setting the display to turn off after a certain period of time of not using the 

player (approx. 15 seconds), can help to save battery power.

See “Setting the Power Save Screen (Power Save Mode)” ( page 52) for the 

setting method.

Setting “Brightness” to the lowest setting reduces battery use while the display 

is on ( page 54).

When the settings for sound quality and volume, such as “Sound” ( page 28), 

“VPT” ( page 33), “Clear Stereo” ( page 34), and “Dynamic Normalizer” 

( page 35) are set to “OFF,” longer battery life can be expected.

If the computer enters a power saving mode, such as the sleep or hibernation 

mode, even during USB connection, the player’s battery is not charged. Instead, 

the player continues to draw power from the battery, discharging it.

The playing time varies, as battery charge can be affected by the format and bit 

rate of the audio files that are played.

For example, a full battery charge offers about 30 hours of playing time for 

songs in ATRAC format at 132 kbps, but only about 24 hours for songs in 

WMA format at 128 kbps. For details, see “Battery life (continuous playback)” 

( page 95). The exact playing time available from a full charge varies with 

the operating conditions and environment of the player.

 Do not leave the player connected for extended periods to a laptop computer that is not 

connected to AC power, because the player may discharge the computer’s battery.
