7.5 Recharging the battery
NOTE: Only IEC 62133 certified Lithium-Ion batteri
es supplied by RhythMedix are to
be used with RhythmStar.
RhythmStar is powered by an externally rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. Each
RhythmStar device is supplied with (2) batteries and one battery charger. It is
recommended that while one battery is being used in the RhythmStar monitor, the
other battery is being charged. We recommend replacing the battery being used in
the RhythmStar monitor with a fully charged battery every 24 hours to avoid any
power outage on the monitor while RhythmStar is monitoring the patient.
To charge the battery, place the rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery into the charger.
Next, plug the charger into the wall outlet (110 or 220V). Once properly placed, the
charger will show either a solid red or blue indication light as shown below:
