Rocket Fish RF-GPS3101 User manual

Charging the battery
Before you use the controller for the first time, or after you have
not used it for a long time, you must charge the battery. (If the
controller will not be used for long periods of time, the battery
should be recharged at least once every six months.) It takes
approximately 3.5 hours to fully charge the battery.
To charge the battery
1Insert the mini-USB plug on the charging cable into the USB
port on the front of the controller.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the min-USB plug is aligned correctly with
the port before inserting into the plug to avoid damaging either the port
or the plug.
NOTE: Recharging a battery that has not been fully
discharged shortens its life.
2Insert the USB plug into the USB port on your PS3,
which must be plugged in and drawing power.
3Turn on your PS3. The battery starts charging
and the PS button in the middle of
the controller lights blue. When the
battery is fully charged, the PS light
turns off.
