DC-in of the device (10). While charging, the indicator (13) will show the
process. When all LEDs light up, the battery is fully charged.
Note: If you are using an adapter with a power rating of Jess than 2A, we
recommend that even after all LEDs are lit, the speaker should remain on the

will use more energy to produce than the spoken word.
