48V battery charging procedure (power supply)
• Connect the power supply and the battery by
inserting the charge connector into the TOUCH PORT
– the BionX system can be on or off
• Connect the power supply to a power receptacle
• The battery TOUCH PORT (LED ring around the
charge connector) lights up red upon insertion and
then turns to amber during the charging process
• When fully charged, the colour of the LED ring
changes to green. The battery charging process is
then complete
• Following this procedure the charging connector should be disconnected from the battery
• During the charging process you can check the battery state-of-charge through the console if the
battery is connected to the system – a 48V system can be switched on while it is charging
Battery state-of-charge Colour

Checking the 48V Battery state-of-charge
• Swipe your finger slowly over the TOUCH PORT

• Allow ten (10) seconds before checking state-of-charge again
NOTE
The power supply is suitable for line voltage ranges of 110-115V or 220-230V, and com-
pensates automatically. The 48V battery is designed to be charged by a 26V BionX power
supply. The battery has an integrated charger which permits the use of a small, portable
power supply.
Ensure that a completely charged battery is no longer connected to the power supply after the charge
procedure is completed.
