CHARGING THE BATTERIES
The
K9 700
collar unit is equipped with rechargeable
Quick Charge Lithium (Li-Poly) batteries, which are
not memory sensitive and do not require depletion
before recharging. Although batteries come partially
charged from the factory, it is recommended that
they are given a full charge (about 2-3 hours) before
initial use.
NOTE
Rechargeable Lithium batteries typically last around 3
years or less depending on use and care. Keep batteries
away from flammable substances. See
page 19
for more
information on battery maintenance.
Collar Battery Charging Procedure
1. Make sure the collar unit is off.
2. Plug the charger into a standard electrical outlet
and connect charger into collar unit. The
SmartLED should light solid
red

3. Charging is complete when the SmartLED turns
green
(may take from 2.5 to 5 hours).
4. As soon as charging is complete, disconnect the
battery charging cable from the receptacle, se-
curely replace the rubber receptacle cover, and
