The Opera incorporates a battery discharge
indicator, situated on the rear side of the controls
console (see Fig. 1). The display shows ten levels of
battery state ranging from fully charged on the right
to very low on the left (green, through amber to red)
For more details of caring for your lifter battery
refer to the ‘Battery Care’ literature, ARJO Part No.
KDX01660.GB.
It is recommended that the battery is removed from
the lifter and recharged when the display reaches
the yellow range, but lifting is possible until the
display shows the red flashing light, at this point,
the battery must be recharged as soon as possible.
Recharging the battery pack before it reaches a low
state of battery charge or certainly totally
discharged will prolong its life.
Your lifter is fitted with an audible warning device
this will sound when the battery discharge indicator
reaches the red light range. The audible warning
will sound for approximately thirty seconds and
will start when a function button is pressed.
Pressing the emergency stop button will
temporarily silence this function, removing and
replacing the battery with one fully charged will
silence the alarm until low battery condition re-
activates it.
