Checking The Remaining Battery Power; Using The Headphones With Dry Batteries (Sold Separately) - Sony MDR-DS3000 Mode D'emploi

Checking the remaining battery power

Pull up the self-adjusting band and check the
POWER indicator located on the right housing. The
batteries are still serviceable when the indicator
lights in red.
Charge the rechargeable batteries or install new dry
batteries if the POWER indicator light dims, flashes,
or the sound becomes distorted, intermittent or
noisy.
Note
The rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries should be replaced with new ones when they
last only half the expected time, after a full charge has been performed. The rechargeable
batteries, type BP-HP550, are not commercially available. You can order the batteries from the
store where you purchased this system, or at your nearest Sony dealer.
Using the headphones with dry batteries
(sold separately)
Commercially available (size AAA) dry batteries can also be used to power the
headphones. Install the batteries in the same manner as described in "Inserting the
supplied rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries" (page 9).
When dry batteries are installed, the battery charge function is not activated.
