Turning the LEUCHTIE on and off
Simply slip the LEUCHTIE over the dog’s head
and it will turn on automatically thanks to a sen-
sor as soon as the battery pack is facing down-
wards. When the battery pack faces upwards the
LEUCHTIE will turn off after approx. one minute.
Therefore, suspend the LEUCHTIE e.g. on a
hook for storage.
ImpImportant notes for recharging
•
Please use only the provided original LEUCHTIE charging station.
•
Tip: The robust NiMH batteries have no memory effect. Therefore, charge the batteries as
early as possible (after approx. 10 - 15 h burn time) overnight until the green LED of the
charging station starts to light up.
This offers the following advantages:
- maximum brightness of your LEUCHTIE
- maximum possible burn time due to fully charged batteries, even during long tours and
operations
- shorter loading times
- longer battery life (no deep discharge)
•
The charging process can easily be interrupted, e. g. for a walk.
Please place it again on the charging station until the green LED starts to light up.
•
If the LEUCHTIE is not used for a longer period of time (e. g. in summer), please fully charge
the batteries before taking it out of operation.
•
The charging contacts of the battery pack only conduct electricity during the charging process.
The contacts can thus be short-circuited or held under water without creating any danger for
dogs or humans. The battery pack is 100% waterproof.
Please make sure that the battery pack is clean and dry when placing it on the charging
station.
