STEP :: 02

PREPARE THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER

CHARGE THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER

1.  Lift the rubber cover protecting the Charging Jack.

2.  Connect the Charging Adapter to the Charging Jack.

3.  Plug the charger into a standard 120/240-volt AC wall outlet.

4.  Charge the Remote Transmitter for 2 hours for the first charge and every charge 

thereafter.

5.  When charging is complete, replace the rubber cover.

 

NOTE:  Approximate battery life between charges is 50 -70 hours, depending  

on frequency of use. Using lithium-ion technology, the Remote Transmitter only 

requires a 2 hour charge. It’s not harmful to let the unit charge for more than 2 

hours.
