4.6 EMERGENCY OPERATION DURING POWER OUTAGE
Your petWALK pet door is equipped with a backup battery. Your pets will not be forced to remain outside should
there be a powercut. In case of a power failure, the petWALK pet door goes into an emergency mode. At this
point, no animals can go outside but any animals that are still outside will be able to get back inside. This
operating mode will be indicated on the display as follows:
Once your petWALK pet door is connected to the main power source again, the operating mode that was
previously active before the powercut will automatically be restored.
The backup battery is designed for emergency operation for about 5-10 hours depending on how frequently it
is used. Once the backup battery is empty, the petWALK pet door will lock itself and switch itself off. Therefore,
you don‘t need to worry that your petWALK pet door will remain open once the battery is empty.
HINT!
-
petWALK pet doors delivered after 9/2015 can also operate with an empty
or unplugged battery. This way, you don‘t have to do without your petWALK
pet door while you wait to swap the battery. Please note that in this case,
the petWALK pet door has no emergency operation mode and might remain
open during a powercut. Therefore, we recommend swapping the battery.
-
The backup battery is charged whilst the door is in use. The backup battery
will have to be exchanged every few years.
