Charging your Caddy Lite
Your Caddy Lite is charged as part of the
manufacturing process and as a result should
be delivered to you with enough power to
complete at least 1 round of golf.
Your new Caddy Lite, with a new battery, will
provide 9 hours of use from one full charge.
Please fully charge your new Caddy
Lite for a minimum of 6 hours before
you use it for the first time.
As a power conservation feature your Caddy
Lite will auto shut off, if no buttons are
pressed in any period of 6 hours, unless the
Caddy Lite is ON charge, in which case it will
continue to inform you either that it is in the
charging process or that it is fully charged.
Battery Power
If your Caddy Lite detects that the power
availability is less than 2 bars, there is therefore
a risk that it will be unable to complete a full
round of golf, it will tell you by changing the
scroll icon in the bottom line of the display to
a virtually empty battery icon. During this
notification process the scroll button will
continue to function as it should.
When the power meter reduces to 1 bar
the same battery icon will start to flash as
a warning.
When the Caddy Lite detects that it has less
than 10 minutes of power it will communicate
a warning in the main screen area ‘VERY LOW
BATTERY’, for a period of 10 minutes before
the Caddy Lite auto shuts off. In the event of
auto shut off, an attempt to restart will
provide an on screen message that requests a
recharge and will instantly auto shut down
again. This cycle can be repeated 3 times
before your Caddy Lite will not respond to the
Power On button. Repeat charging, or
‘topping up’ your battery charge, does not
unduly damage or reduce the battery’s life
expectancy. Your Caddy Lite can, dependent
upon environmental characteristics, support up
to 500 charge cycles before it needs to be
returned to the manufacturer for a
replacement.
You are able to charge your Caddy Lite via the
USB connection lead. If you require a mains
charger please visit
