CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERIES
The Electric Fish Handling
Gloves
tm
control box is
powered by recharge-
able high-efficiency, size
AA nickel–metal hydride
(NiMH) batteries. When
depleted, they must be
removed and charged
in the supplied battery
charger.
To charge the batteries,
remove the batteries from
the unit and place in the
charger, following the
steps in the supplied char-
ger’s instructions.
When removing or replacing batteries, take care not to intro-
duce water into the battery compartment
When charging is complete, place the batteries back in the
control unit in the proper configuration.
If storing the Electric
Fish Handling Gloves
tm
for an extended period of time, remove
the batteries and store them in a cool, dry place and recharge
before using.
• Only use a charger approved for charging AA NiMH batteries.
• Do not leave the batteries charging in the charger for more
than 12 hours.
• Recharge the batteries every three months, regardless of use.
• Store the Control Box in a climate controlled environment
when not in use.
Standard rechargeable batteries and even disposable AA batter-
ies can be used, but their performance for this application would
be greatly diminished.
