Should I leave Zen Micro plugged into the Power Adapter?
No, you should not. After charging the battery or using Zen Micro, disconnect it from the
Power Adapter. Leaving it plugged in leads to heat buildup, which is not good for Zen Micro
or its battery.
NOTE
The software applications on the Zen Micro CD may have higher requirements for
basic functionality. Refer to each application’s documentation for details.
