Just arrived today. How long do I charge it on the first time? It didn't come with instructions.

I just charged it overnight and it has been fine ever since - you could call Peg Perego customer service they would tell you exactly.

Your charger should tell you when it is fully charged, mind have yellow light when it needs to be charged and a green light when it is fully charged

No less than 12 hours, no more than 16 hours. (We had the manual from the original battery :)

I don't believe ours came with instructions either. We just put it into my sisters computer, let it charge until the white light came on that tells her its charged and then unplugged it and started using it. The only thing I can suggest, if you haven't done it already, is to let the battery charge for a full 24 hours. I know that's how you used to have to do it and maybe it will work now. If nothing else, take it to Staples, they have a computer check thing that I believe is free and they may be able to check the battery itself as well as your computer to make sure something isn't wrong in your charging system. I hope I've helped. Good luck. I don't believe ours came with instructions either.

8 to 9 hrs the first time. After that it depends on how much it is being used. After initial charge I usually plug it for about an hour.

First you have to charge the device they sent you. It should've came with a cord to charge it with. And once that's charged you can use it. It doesn't stayed charged for long. At least mine doesn't. Hope this helps :)

Instructions state that first charge and charges thereafter should be 8 -16 hours. I've only charged mine overnight and the light was still red. The overnight charge lasts a really long time.

I would recommend charging it for between 3-4 hours. There should be a blue indicator light on the side where the power button is that may turn off when its fully charged(if the device is already powered down)

I used an external charger and left it charging overnight so I'm not certain how long it actually took. I was surprised that it came to me fully discharged but after that initial charge it's been working normally.

I had the same question after i received the charger, there were no instructions with it. It came wraped in a peice of plastic. I ended up purchasing a new charger with a digital guage so i could tell if the battery was fully charged.

The instructions tell you how long to charge it initially. I've only recharged it once since then.

Yeah that's normal. Charge it overnight. That's actually a good sign. A slow charge is better. Same with mine. 6-8 hours.

The first time, I was surprise when it finally finished. It really takes 24h! My old one doesn't have the charge progress indicator so I assume that I never charged it entirely!

You need to hold the button for a few secs, you should see a green light on it while it's charging. Hold until you see.the green light. It should be fully charged well before 7 hours.

well i've only charged once since it arrived. I been using it for 3 days, about 3 hours with no need to recharge it so far.

Yes, charge it before using it for the first time. Yes, charging it overnight should be enough.

I think I had the same issue. We used all the charge (drained) then let it fully charge. I believe the first time took approximately 12-16 hours. It does not charge quickly.

I would charge it for a full 15 hours before using it. They usually come partially charged, so doing a full charge is the best way to be sure.

I don't recall seeing instructions on how long, but i left it charging about 3 hours. Both batteries are working fine!
