■ About the EL backlight
• This unit is equipped with an EL backlight that allows easy viewing of display
contents in a theater, or anywhere else where lighting is dim.
• Note, however, that frequent or extended use of the EL backlight shortens
battery life.
The following shows how backlight use affects battery life under controlled test
conditions*.
* Test Conditions
