| Will The Cold Weather Affect The
Performance of My Remote Trainer? |
|
All batteries experience a normal drop in voltage during cold weather. As a battery
powered device, your remote trainer or remote launcher can be affected by normal voltage
drops during winter months and experience such things as: Batteries can run down more rapidly
Unit can stop functioning properly
before expected based on when it was last charged
Stimulation may not be as strong
Unit can turn itself off (evidence of
extremely low batteries)
For best performance during the
winter months we recommend the following:
Keep the unit at room temperature
when it is not being used. Do not store the unit overnight or for extended periods in
areas such as vehicles, sheds, or garages. When traveling, transport your remote trainer
in a heated area such as the cab of a truck.
Charge the unit at room temperature
and dry. If the unit is cold, give it at least two hours to reach room temperature before
charging. Ensure the charging jack is free of moisture.
Charge more frequently and allow a
full charge (see your owner's manual) whenever possible. Note that the newer XLS, Sport S,
G2 and Sport G3 remote trainers may be left on the charger or cradle when not in use
("trickle charge"). For other units please consult your Owners Manual.
Check your unit more frequently for
the low battery indicator, and always check just prior to use.
