• When storing the unit for long periods, remember to regularly give the Transmitter a
full charge (12 hours). This should be done once every 4 to 6 weeks.
• Excessive overcharging can shorten battery life. After initial charge, never leave the
Transmitter charging for more than 12 hours.
• If your equipment has not been charged for an extended period, you may experience

previous capacity levels.
• You should expect hundreds of recharge cycles from your battery pack. However, all
rechargeable batteries lose capacity over time relative to the number of recharge cycles
they experience. This is normal. If your operating time drops to half of the original life,
contact the Customer Care Centre to purchase a new battery pack.
• The battery pack should last for a period of 3-5 years. When a battery pack needs replacement,
you can order a new pack by contacting our Customer Care Centre or visit our website at www.
petsafe.net. Please do not open the Remote Transmitter until you have received the replacement.
