 You should expect hundreds of recharge cycles from your battery. 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 Center to purchase a new battery.  
The battery should last for a period of 3-5 years. When a battery needs 
replacement, you can order a new pack by contacting our Customer Care 
Center or visit our website at www.petsafe.net. Please do not open the Remote 
Transmitter until you have received the replacement.
