USING THE BATTERY CHARGER
With a new battery at room temperature, the Responder 2000 will first indicate “Low Battery” while there is still sufficient
charge remaining to perform at least five (5) rescues. As the battery ages, there will be progressively less operating time
available before low battery warning, after low battery warning before therapy inhibit, and after therapy inhibit before
system shutdown. Operation at other than room temperature, especially at low temperature, will also reduce battery
capacity. It is recommended to recharge the battery as soon as practical after the “Low Battery” indication.
Figure 2.1 Battery Charger and Power Supply
1. Remove the rechargeable battery from the Responder 2000.
2. Plug the power cord into the power supply, plug the power supply into the battery charger, and plug the power cord
into an AC outlet.
3. Insert the battery into the charger and ensure the following:
• Operating Mode light is solid green
• Charge Status light is flashing green.
4. Battery charging starts automatically when battery is put in the battery charger.
Do not push the Calibrate button unless a calibration cycle is desired.
5. The battery will take up to 4 (four) hours to charge in the charger.
6. Remove the battery from the charger when it is charged. The battery is fully charged, when the Mode light is solid
green and the Status light is off.
7. Charging may be terminated early by removing the battery from the charger.
NOTE: If the Charge Status light blinks red, a battery error has occurred during charging. If the Charge Status
light is solid red, a charger error has occurred during charging. Contact Customer Service in the event of an
error during charging.
