CHARGING
ALPHA TRAINING BLUE
™
a
Before first use, you MUST charge Blue with the included 6.6V charger and charge the
controller with the included USB cable. Please follow these instructions:
CAUTION: Use only the charger included with Blue. Do not use any other charging source.
IMPORTANT: Blue's micro USB port is for updates only. It is not a charger!
1. Switch off Blue before charging.
2. Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet.
3. Access Blue's battery compartment from the bottom torso and unscrew the battery cover with a Phillips
head screwdriver (not included).
4. Connect the charger wire to Blue's charger connector. Make sure the two connectors are
tightly snapped together.
5. A red LED will light up on the charger to indicate the battery is charging.
6. The battery can be charged in about 35 minutes. Charging time may vary.
7. A green LED will light up on the charger to indicate the charging is complete.
8. Charging the battery for more than what is recommended will not give you a longer running time.
9. To disconnect wires, push down on the connector clip and pull apart.
10. Unlike alkaline batteries, where the power loss is gradual, a Li-ion battery will run for its normal running
time (around 35 minutes) and then lose most of its power at once. It is now time to recharge the battery.
11. After use, the battery will be hot! Wait at least 20 minutes until the battery cools before recharging.
Recharging a warm or hot battery will greatly reduce the number of times your battery can be recharged.
12. The battery door must be closed, or Blue will not run.
