Installation
Important battery information-please read
Your Sportscaster's accessory battery pack should be charged before you use the
accessory with the receiver. The amount of charge is indicated by the battery level
indicator on your Sportscaster's display. When you're charging the battery, you will
see . When the battery is exhausted, you will see .
When you use your Sportscaster for the first time, charge the battery until the
battery level indicator indicates it's fully charged. Then, use your Sportscaster until
the battery is completely discharged. This charge/discharge cycle will reset the
battery level indicator so that it will more accurately report the level of the battery
with future usage.
Your battery performs best when used and charged in an ambient temperature of
between 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C). Batteries gradually lose their ability to retain the
same capacity as when they are new and require longer charging times. When a
battery no longer holds its charge, you should replace the battery. Always use
authorized batteries and power adaptors. Replacement batteries and power
adaptors can be ordered online at www.advancedgt.com.
To prevent injuring yourself or damaging your Sportscaster, do not disassemble,
crush, or puncture the battery. Do not leave your Sportscaster inside a hot vehicle or
in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Never allow metal to touch the
battery terminals. Your Sportscaster's rechargeable battery should be disposed of
properly and may need to be recycled. Contact your local recycler for details. Never
dispose of batteries in a fire or in water as they may explode.
