Charging your Device

Your device has an embedded, rechargeable battery that should be replaced only by

Sony or an authorized Sony repair center. You should never try to open or take apart this

device yourself. Opening the device can cause damage that will void your warranty.
The battery is partly charged when the device is shipped from the factory. The battery

level may be very low, depending on how long the device was in the box before you

purchased it. It is therefore recommended that you charge the battery for at least 30

minutes before starting up your device for the first time. You can still use your device

while it is charging. Read more about how to improve battery performance in
