RECHARGING AND CHANGING THE BATTERIES
You must use the battery charger included with your
VocaFlex® Colour
for charging.
Recharge the batteries by plugging the battery charger in the input for charging on the
back of
VocaFlex® Colour
(see illustration). The charging time is 4 hours for flat
batteries.
LED number 2 (see illustration page 9) will start flickering red
when the batteries are nearly flat. It is now time to plug in the
battery charger. If the batteries are
flat
when you connect the
charger, LED number 2 (see illustration page 9) will start
flickering red when the batteries are nearly discharged. It is
now time to plug in the battery charger. If the batteries are
discharged
when you connect
the charger, LED number 2 will light red and will continue to light red until the batteries
are fully recharged (approximately 4 hours). When the batteries are fully charged, the
LED will turn green. If the batteries are
not
discharged when you connect the charger,
you will have to press one of the keys on the user panel to check if the charging has
started – if so, LED number 2 will light red. If the LED is not lighting at all, it is because
the plug is not connected properly to the
VocaFlex® Red.
If the led is lightening green,
the
batteries are fully charged. The LED lights red until the batteries are fully recharged.
We recommend you to recharge the
VocaFlex® Red
every night so that it is ready for
use in the morning. You can recharge the batteries even when they have not been used
much, without causing any damage to them
When changing the battery use only the combined battery and battery compartment that
is meant for the VocaFlex. A new battery pack can be purchased from your VocaFlex
supplier.
It is possible to use an alkaline battery as well. This could be useful as a backup if it is
inconvenient to charge the VocaFlex battery. This is not recommended, though, because
of the danger of accidentally charging this battery.
Decontamination Procedure
There may be a requirement to decontaminate a
VocaFlex® Colour
and/or associated
equipment after use to reduce the risk of infection transmission to other people. The
following decontamination procedure is recommended for this type of low-risk equipment:
clean the external surfaces with a disposable paper wipe moistened with warm
detergent solution.
Allow the surfaces to dry.
Wipe the surfaces with a commercially-available alcohol-impregnated disposable
wipe.
ENVIRONMENT:
When it is time to discard the
VocaFlex® Colour
or the batteries, you must treat it as
special waste or return it to your supplier. The
VocaFlex® Colour
packaging can be
recycled as regular paper waste.
