2. How to Use the Rechargable Battery Pack
How to Charge the rechargable Battery Pack 1. Connect the power cord into the Rechargable Battery Pack body. Insert the power cord plug into the 110/120 volt AC outlet. (Recharge the rechargable Battery Pack using only a 110/120 volt AC power outlet.)
2. When recharged (about 8 hours), remove the power cord from the Rechargable Battery Pack body and the outlet. * Hold the plug body when removing the power cord. * The recharging time is about 8 hours. * The Rechargable battery Pack will slowly discharge even if it is not being used. For this reason, use the Rechargable Battery Pack immediately after it has been recharged. * The Rechargable Battery Pack can be recharged about 300 times.
How to use the Rechargable Battery Pack as a Battery 1. Connect the DC plug to the external power supply terminal of the GAME BOY. 2. Turn the power switch of the GAME BOY to ON. * The Rechargable Battery Pack will last about 10 hours. (Varies with volume setting and games being played.)
How to use the Rechargable Battery Pack as an AC Adaptor
(using the Battery Pack in this manner will allow continuous use of the GAME BOY without loss of power.) 1. Connect the DC plug to the external power supply terminal of the GAME BOY. 2. Connect the power cord to the Rechargable Battery Pack and a 110/120 volt AC outlet. 3. Turn the power switch of the GAME BOY to ON. * If the Rechargable Battery Pack has completely discharged, it may not function as an AC adapter. In this case, turn the power switch of the GAME BOY to OFF and recharge the Rechargable Battery Pack for a short while (from several minutes to 1 hour). You should then be able to use it as an AC adapter.
Cautions * Do not short or put the end of the DC plug into the mouth. This may cause damage to the batteries, electrical shock or minor burns. * The Rechargable Battery Pack is for indoor use only. Prevent it from becoming wet. Allowing it to become wet may cause damage to the Rechargable Battery Pack or the GAME BOY. * Do not recharge for more than 8 hours or recharge it below 32øC (OøC) or above 100ø (40øC). This will shorten the service life of the Rechargable Battery Pack * Do not recharge or leave the Rechargable Battery Pack in the direct sunlight, near heating equipment, or in very humid areas. This may cause a malfunction. * The Rechargable Battery Pack can only be used with the GAME BOY. Do not use with other equipment. This may cause a malfunction. * Turn the power switch on the GAME BOY to OFF before inserting (or removing) the DC plug of the rechargable Battery Pack. * When unplugging the cords, be sure to pull from the plug itself, not from the wires. * Do not dispose of in fire. * Do not attempt to open as there are no user serviceable parts inside.
