2.7 Power Supply
The LumiraDx Instrument contains a rechargeable non-removable battery. If the battery
is critically low, the Instrument will prompt to connect the power supply unit. It will take
approximately 2 hours to fully charge the battery. The Instrument can be operated while
charging the battery.

During operation, the Instrument touch-screen always displays the battery power
level and provides an alert when the battery level is low. To save power when battery
operated, the Instrument will automatically power off after 55 minutes, unless the touch-
screen is tapped. When the Instrument powers off, all result records will remain in the
Instrument memory and any Instrument settings will be maintained.
Refer to the “Instrument Specifications” chapter of this Platform User Manual for
additional information on operating conditions and complete Instrument specifications.
