BATTERY USE AND CHANGING
The batteries WILL NOT be charged by the Wall Transformer that was supplied with your
ELIMINATOR. The batteries are used to power the ELIMINATOR when you are not using
the110 volts A.C. Adapter or a Cigarette Lighter Adapter.
A) To Change Batteries: Remove the back cover of the ELIMINATOR (4 screws). The
Batteries will be located at the bottom and you can use 1 or 2 -- new 9 Volt Alkaline batteries.
Two batteries will last about twice as long as one.
B) Low Batteries: If your ELIMINATOR only displays 4 lights in the LEFT lane when turned
on (2 ambers, green, and red) then you have bad batteries. If the unit resets (STARTS OVER)
after you run a race, then you probably have low batteries. Try the A.C. Adapter supplied with
the unit or the Cigarette Lighter Adapter accessory available from Portatree to verify.
C) When using a Full Size Tree: When using your Full Size Christmas tree you must use
the Wall Transformer supplied with your Eliminator or the cigarette lighter adapter
shipped with your tree to power up your Eliminator. The Eliminator powered up with 2 - 9
Volt Alkaline Batteries will not drive your Full Size Tree.
