collars are equipped with
rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries.
NiMH batteries are not memory sensitive and do not
require depletion before recharging.
The batteries come partially charged from the factory.
However, it is recommended that you give the battery
a full charge (about 12 hours) before the first use.
Remember - Always keep batteries away from
flammable substances (especially when charging).
When storing the unit for long periods remember to
regularly give the batteries a full charge (12 hours)
once every 4 to 6 weeks.

either separately or
simultaneously.

cables from the receptacles and securely replace
the rubber battery receptacle covers.

working properly.
