S.P.O.T.™
collars are equipped with rechargeable
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries, which are not
memory sensitive and do not require depletion before
recharging. Although batteries come partially charged
from the factory, it is recommended that they are given
a full charge (up to 12 hours) before initial use.
* The transmitter uses a 9-volt replaceable battery (not
included). Be sure to pay attention to the “+” and “-”
terminals when inserting the battery.
NOTE:
Rechargeable batteries typically last about 2-5 years
on average depending on use and care. Keep batteries
away from flammable substances. DO NOT OVERCHARGE.
