Turning the EASY-CHARGE on and off
The Glowdoggie®Leuchtie® has a patented automatic on/off
function. Simply slide the unit over the dog’s head and
it will turn on automatically as soon as the battery pack is
facing downwards, thanks to its built-in sensor.
.
When the battery pack faces upwards (to the sky) the unit will
turn off after approx. one minute. Find a hook, or somewhere
safe to rest it against
…
ideally a place that will be prevent it
from turning around and accidentally activating.
Also, keep it above the ground in case your dog thinks it’s a
new chew toy!
Recharging the batteries
The enclosed NiMH batteries come slightly pre-charged – so the
EasyCharge is ready for immediate use, for a short period. Ideal-
ly, a few hours of charging before or after the first use is recom-
mended, or a full charge until the indicator lights up green.
We recommend charging the batteries once a week or after ap-
prox. 10-12hrs shine time. Just leave it to charge over night
. It is
best to recharge with the product leaning up against a flat solid
surfact, such as a wall or a box
…
this stabilizes the charging unit
when attached to the magnets. We don’t recommending hanging
to charge, as it tends to lose balance.
You MUST recharge as soon as the LEDs start flashing or blink-
ing, which would happen around the 24 hour mark. This is a
built-in warning function to alert you that the battery pack must
be recharged. Do not ignore this, but charge immediately OR re-
move the battery pack until you can recharge, to prevent perma-
nent non-warrantied damage from a possible battery leak.
5. Connect the USB cable of the charging station to a USB power
source (e.g. USB power supply unit or USB socket of a car/ PC,
etc.). The
green LED
of the charging station indicates that it is
ready for use.
6. Place the charging contacts of the LEUCHTE on the charging sta-
tion. The magnetic charging contacts will automatically align. The
red LED
shows that the batteries are recharging.
7. The batteries are charged sufficiently as soon as the
green LED
starts to light up in addition to the
red LED
