TRanSMiTTER anD REcEivER BaTTERy OPTiOnS

Instead of using Alkaline batteries to power the transmitter and receiver, you can use rechargeable Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries. This 

will provide longer usage time and reduced cost in the long run, since you won't need to continuously purchase new Alkaline batteries.

The transmitter features a charging jack, which can be used with the optional Airtronics 95035 110v AC Transmitter and Receiver 

charger to recharge the batteries without removing them from the transmitter. In addition, this charger can also be used to recharge a 

4.8v or 6.0v rechargeable Ni-Cd or Ni-MH receiver battery pack at the same time. We recommend the following:

233804 - 1200mAh Ni-MH 'AA' Rechargeable Batteries (4-Pack) for Transmitter
233808 - 6.0v 2200mAh Ni-MH Rechargeable Flat Battery Pack for Receiver
475035 - Airtronics 95035 110v AC Transmitter and Receiver Charger

SySTEM cOnnEcTiOnS

1)   Install the optional 1200mAh Ni-MH rechargeable batteries into the transmitter, following the steps in the Transmitter Battery 

Installation section on the previous page.

Charging the Optional Ni-MH Transmitter and Receiver Batteries

The Aero Sport 5 transmitter features a Charging Jack located on the right side of the transmitter, allowing you to recharge the optional 

rechargeable batteries without removing them from the transmitter. Use 

ONLY

 the recommended optional Airtronics 95035 110v AC 

Transmitter and Receiver charger or damage to the transmitter and/or batteries could result.

WARNING

  Do NOT attempt to recharge Alkaline batteries. Do NOT attempt to charge any type of batteries other than those 

recommended, and use ONLY the recommended charger. Do not use the Charging Jack with any other after-market fast charger 

or Peak-Detection charger, or the transmitter could be damaged.

WARNING

  An after-market peak-detection charger and/or cycler should NOT be used to charge the optional rechargeable 

batteries through the transmitter. The circuitry within the transmitter can interfere with the peak-detection charger's normal operation, 

resulting in over-charging and damaging the batteries and possibly the transmitter itself. Damage caused by peak-charging or 

fast-charging the batteries through the transmitter, or using an incorrect battery type, will not be covered under warranty.

1)  Plug the Airtronics 95035 110V AC Transmitter and Receiver charger into a 110v AC wall socket.

2)  Plug the round connector from the charger into the Charging Jack in the transmitter and plug the female connector from the 

charger into the receiver battery plug. The charger LEDs will illuminate red, indicating that the charger is charging.

3)  Both transmitter and receiver charger outputs are 150mAh, therefore, it will take approximately 15 hours to recharge fully-discharged 

2200mAh batteries (2200/150=14.6). Charge time will vary depending on the mAh capacity of the batteries you're charging. For 

example, 1200mAh batteries would require an 8 hour charge (1200/150=8).

l

 

Always follow the charging procedures described below to ensure the safe and correct use of the rechargeable batteries and charger.

l

 

Before charging the batteries, double-check that both the transmitter and the receiver are turned OFF.

l

 

Overcharging reduces the life of the batteries and can result in overheating and bursting. This may cause personal injury and/or 

property damage.

l

 

Do not plug the recommended charger into anything other than an AC 110v power outlet. Plugging the charger into anything other 

than AC 110v outlet may result in smoking, sparks, or fire.

l

 

Do not throw the batteries or abuse them in any manner.  Do not dispose of the batteries in the fire or allow it to overheat.

l

 

Do not short-circuit the battery terminals with wire or any other object.
