About the back-up battery
The SL-5500 has a specified built-in rechargeable back-up battery which
prevents the memory contents from being erased when you replace the battery.
• The rechargeable back-up battery will be charged to its full capacity in 30
hours under normal use in the following instances:
– When the AC adapter is connected;
– When the fully charged operating battery (EA-BL06) is inserted.
• The rechargeable back-up battery will be exhausted if you leave an already
exhausted operating battery in the SL-5500 for more than a day, or when you
replace the operating battery.
• The rechargeable back-up battery (when fully charged) keeps data stored in
the SL-5500 for approximately 5 minutes when the operating battery is not
inserted.
