CHARGING
Before using the SBC-R for the first time, be sure to charge the unit by following the steps described below.
The SBC-R contains a rechargeable battery pack. When the unit indicates the battery is low (battery icon on the OLED
display shows one bar or less) it is time to recharge the unit. Average battery life is 200 hours, depending on how
often your dog barks. However, due to greater use during your dog’s training, your first battery charge may not last
as long. To conserve battery life, turn the SBC-R off when not in use.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO CHARGE THE BATTERY:
1. Align the Charging Cradle with the Charging Contacts
as shown in image.
2. Push down on the Charging Cradle until it snaps into
place.
3. Plug the charger into a standard 120/240-volt AC wall
outlet. While charging, a battery icon will show on the
OLED display.
4. During charging, keep the SBC-R in an open, well-
ventilated area.
5. When charging is complete, as indicated by the
full battery icon flashing, the battery charger
will automatically shut off, preventing overcharging.
(After charging, the unit will need to be turned
back on before using it.) NOTE: The battery should fully
charge in two hours.
6. Remove the Charging Cradle from the SBC-R.
7. Unplug the charger from the wall outlet.
NOTE: When storing the unit for long periods, remember to regularly give batteries a full charge. This should be
done once every three to four months.
