• Use only specified batteries.
• Keep the batteries in their original package until you are ready to use them.
• Do not expose batteries to liquid.
• High ambient temperature shortens battery run time.
• Extremely high ambient temperature may cause battery overheat
protection, and then the monitor will turn off.
• If the battery shows signs of damage or signs of leakage, replace it
immediately. Do not use a faulty battery in the monitor.
• Do not crush, drop or puncture the battery. Mechanical abuse can lead to
internal damage and internal short circuits. If a battery has been dropped or
banged against a hard surface, whether damage is externally visible or not,
remove the battery from use and dispose of it properly.
• The Lithium-ion batteries have a service life of 3 years. Please replace your
battery when it reaches the end of its service life. Failure to replace the
battery may cause serious damage to your device from battery overheating.
• Remove the battery before shipping the monitor or if it will not be used for
an extended period of time.
• Charge the battery in this monitor.
15.5 Battery Maintenance
15.5.1 Conditioning a Battery
A battery should be conditioned before it is used for the first time. A battery
conditioning cycle is one uninterrupted charge of the battery, followed by an
uninterrupted battery discharge and charge. Batteries should be conditioned regularly
to maintain their useful life.
To condition a battery:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monitoring or measuring.
2. Turn off the monitor. Disconnect the monitor from the AC power.
3. Connect the monitor to the AC power. Allow the battery to be charged
uninterrupted for 6.5 hours until the battery is full.
4. Remove the AC power and allow the monitor to run from the battery until the
battery is completely depleted and the monitor automatically shuts off.
5. Again connect the monitor to the AC power. Fully charge the battery again for use
or charge it to 40 – 60% for storage.
