CodeManagement Module Battery
The CodeManagement Module has an internal, rechargeable Lithium-ion battery. When the
CodeManagement Module is properly connected to the LIFEPAK 20 defibrillator and AC power, the
batteries in the defibrillator and CodeManagement Module both recharge. When the device is
disconnected from AC power, both the defibrillator and CodeManagement Module automatically
switch to battery power.
To ensure the CodeManagement Module is always ready for use, keep it plugged into an AC outlet
whenever possible.
Note: One power cord is used to power both the defibrillator and the CodeManagement Module.
A new, fully-charged battery for the CodeManagement Module provides 270 minutes of continuous
CO2 monitoring. Typically, a new, fully depleted battery recharges for 4 hours to regain full capacity.
The battery should be replaced every two years. Battery replacement must be performed by qualified
service personnel.
WARNING!
Possible CO2 monitoring shutdown.
When operating on battery power, adhere to recommended battery charging and replacement
intervals to prevent possible CO2 monitoring shutdown.
