The battery needs charging when the LED on the remote flashes red.

 

To charge the remote, follow these steps:

  • Connect the charger cable to any computer USB port or to the charger supplied with the product.
  • During charging, the LED will turn red. The LED will turn green when the battery is charged.
  • When the charging cable is disconnected, the LED switches itself off and the remote returns to standby mode, ready for use.

IMPORTANT: Switch off the remote if it is not in used. This will extend the battery life.

  • The battery installed in the remote is a single lithium ion polymer cell.
  • It is VERY IMPORTANT NOT to let the battery fully discharge. It should be recharged immediately when the battery LED indicates that the battery is discharged. Allowing the battery to fully discharge could cause irreversible damage to it.
  • Ion polymer batteries cannot withstand temperature excesses. For this reason:
  • Do not leave the remote near heat sources such as radiators, electric blankets, heaters, etc.
  • Never leave the remote inside vehicles.

If it overheats, the battery could catch fire.

  • Only charge the battery with the charger supplied with the product or through a USB port. The charging process must be witnessed in order to detect any charging abnormalities.
  • Use the battery and charger for their intended purposes only. Improper use or use of unapproved batteries or chargers may present a risk of fire, explosion, or other hazard, and may invalidate any approval or warranty.
  • The battery can be charged and discharged countless times but it will eventually wear out. You will need to replace the battery when the battery life is noticeably shorter than normal. To do this, contact BJ Adaptaciones to replace it.
  • The full charging time of the battery can vary between 3 and 4 hours.
  •  Lithium-ion polymer batteries can be charged before they are fully discharged because they are not susceptible to the memory effect. We do not recommend charging the battery before it has lost 5% of its charge. This will cut down on unnecessary charging that can be harmful due to the increase in temperature. Charging and discharging quickly and often will increase the inaccuracy between the battery charge status and power meter readings.
  • Leaving the battery at a high level of charge in a high-temperature environment for extended periods (> 60°C) also accelerates the loss of capacity.
  • Frequent full charges and discharges put stress on the battery and drastically reduce its lifespan.
  • Try to keep it between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily.
  • When the battery is fully charged, disconnect it from the charger, as overcharging may shorten the battery’s lifetime.
  • This equipment is not designed to run on an external power supply.
  •  The correct way to disconnect the device from an external power supply is, firstly, to unplug the cable from the socket transmitting the electricity to the power supply/equipment charger. You may then remove the connector socket directing the voltage to the actual equipment.
  • You should do this the other way round when connecting to the power supply.
  • When you unplug a charger or an accessory, hold and pull the plug, not the cord.
  • When your charger is not in use, unplug it from the electrical plug and the device.
  • Do not use the charger outdoors.
  • If you consider the battery or charger are damaged, contact BJLive! to have it inspected before continuing to use it. Never use a damaged charger or battery
