Charging the Battery
The battery charger cord plugs into the bottom of the pump.
Note: The plug and receptacle are shaped to fit only one way. DO NOT force the
plug into place.
For the best battery operating time, the battery should be charged for at least 16 hours
before using the pump. Disconnect the charger if the pump is not to be used within the
next 72 hours. Prolonged overcharge and high temperature shorten the battery operating
time and service life.
The battery voltage may be displayed by pressing
CONFIRM briefly during the Lamp Test,
or by pressing
CONFIRM after the pump has been programmed.
Note: Battery voltage display is only an approximate indication of the battery’s remaining
charge. If the battery voltage is less than 6.1 volts, or is dropping rapidly, assume
that the charge remaining in the battery is minimal. Recharge the battery.
Do not charge or store the pump in direct sunlight, or under excessively warm conditions.
Replacement of the battery every 16 months is recommended for optimal pump
performance.
Use only “900 Series” chargers or other accessories that are labeled
specifically for use with Auto Syringe AS40A or AS50 Series Infusion
Pumps. The standard battery charger (USA) is Model #C-AS40-01-900.
