The battery protection circuit may have operated. Attach
the battery to the AC adaptor for 5 to 10 seconds. If the unit
still cannot be used, the battery is faulty.
The battery is affected by ambient temperature. In cold
places, the battery using time becomes shorter.
The battery has a limited life. If the operating time is still too
short even after the battery is fully charged, the battery has
worn out and needs to be replaced.

may not be possible to display the remaining battery
capacity correctly if the battery was used for a long period
of time where the temperature was low or high or if the
battery was repeatedly charged.)
