5.5 Battery

CAUTION:
Charge the battery fully
before you put the product into storage. If
the battery is not fully charged it can cause
damage to the battery.
If the operating time of the product is shorter than usual
between charges, this means that the battery is at the
end of its life cycle. Replace the battery to extend the
operating time.
Note:
The battery life is related to the length of
the season and how many hours a day the product
operates. A long season or many hours of operation
a day means that the battery must be replaced more
regularly.
