Charging your device

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

Sony or an authorised Sony repair centre. 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. Depending

on how long it was in the box before you purchased it, the battery level may be quite

low. 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 the battery performance in

Battery and

power management
