Operator’s Manual 71
Caution:
Do not use any chargers not specified by Covidien.
Caution:
Do not mistreat the battery, or use the battery in applications not
recommended by Covidien.
Caution:
Keep the battery out of reach of children to avoid any accidents.
Caution:
If there are any problems with the battery, immediately put the monitoring
system
in a safe place and contact a qualified service technician.
Note:
The service menu displays the number of deep discharge cycles seen by the battery.
The monitoring system records a deep discharge cycle when the battery reaches the
voltage after a “critically low battery” alarm issues. Reference the Service Manual.
Note:
Remove the battery if anticipating long periods of time between use or if storing the
monitoring system.
Note:
Storing the monitoring system for a long period without charging the battery may
degrade battery capacity. A full charge of a depleted battery takes over four (4) or
eight (8) hours, depending on the battery.
Regularly check the battery to ensure optimal performance.
• Charge the lithium-ion battery if the monitoring system has not been used for six
(6) months. To charge the battery, connect the monitoring system to AC power.
• Have a qualified service technician replace the monitoring system's lithium-ion
battery every two (2) years. Reference the Service Manual for battery replacement
and general service instructions.
