You can still use your machine when it is pluged in.  It is okay to leave your 
CD in when you turn it off.  Linda Reeder Your battery will not over charge so 
you can always leave it pluged in if you want.  I always have it pluged in when 
I am recording CDs for people.

  Hi everyone,

  I've just received the ptr1 machine from RNIb's talking book service.  It was 
a replacement for the Victor Reader Classic that I've been using for a long 
while.

  I just have two questions about the ptr1.

  I have, what i think is, the basic version, or home version.  Doesn't have as 
many buttons on the player than the pro version.

  Anyway, firstly, I want to know about battery life care.

  I listened to the audio CD instructions and it said that the player should be 
recharged for four hours after being run down.
  Now, what is the best way to recharge the ptr1 battery?  Once the battery 
needs charging, would I just switch the player on, leave it in standby mode to 
charge for those four hours?

  I never new how to recharge the victor reader classic, lol. 

  Secondly, like the Victor reader, is it OK to leave CD in the ptr1 when 
switching it off?  That is, if I'm still listening to a book and, want to 
listen to some more later on, can I leave the CD where it is before switch off, 
or must I remove the CD?

  I know, the second question is so terribly basic. However, I do wanna take 
particular care of this new player I'm renting.  It's very smart indeed, 
probably more expensive than the previous players I've loaned from RNIB.

  Thanks for any advice.

  all the best,

  Justin
