Charging the lithium ion packs

WARNING! Do not heat the rechargeable battery

pack above 60°C (140°F) as this will damage the
battery’s thermal fuses.

Locator Li-Ion battery pack

To recharge the locator battery pack, connect the battery
charger to the DC input connector on the front of the
battery pack.

Transmitter Li-ion battery pack

To recharge the battery pack, remove the pack from the
transmitter and connect the transmitter battery charger.

For more information about recharging batteries refer to
the instructions that came with your charger

4.2 Power on / off

Switch the locator or transmitter on by pressing the

key.

To switch the locator or transmitter off, press and hold

the

key until the screen blanks off.
