Tri-Tronics Sport® Series Remote Trainers - Manual (Page 20)

Collar Batteries
Initial Charge. Charge the collar for about 14 hours before
first using the unit.
When to Recharge. When the light on the collar blinks
rapidly, you need to recharge the collar soon. Note that
battery performance is reduced in cold weather. Expect to
recharge more often. The amount of time that collar batteries
have left after the low battery indicator comes on depends
on how you use your Remote Trainer during training, the
temperature (less time remains during cold weather), and
other factors. Normally you will be able to complete your
training session after you see the low battery indicator,
but when the weather is very cold, this won’t be true.
How to Charge. Charge batteries at room temperature. Do
not charge at temperatures below freezing. Remember that
it takes several hours for cold batteries to come up to room
temperature.
Lift the rubber protection flap from the collar charging jack.
Plug the charger into the wall outlet and insert the charging
plug into the collar jack. The collar light will glow red to
indicate that current is flowing.
Note that you can charge two collars at the same time with
one charger.
Please note: Never press the on/off button on the collar while
it is on charge.
After charging, reinstall the rubber protection cap correctly
to keep dirt and debris out of your charging jack. Keeping the
charging jack clean ensures that your charger makes good
contact. If the collar charging jack becomes dirty, clean it as
described in the section, “Care and Cleaning” (page 18).
If the protective cover becomes lost or damaged, you will
find replacement covers included with your Remote Trainer.
You can also contact our Customer Service Department for
additional protective covers.
Use only the correct Tri-Tronics charger to charge your collar.
Using the wrong type of charger may damage batteries or the
collar itself. Do not charge batteries that are not installed in
a collar.
