Hibernate Mode
The Neurostimulator can be put into Hibernate Mode if there is a
need to not deliver stimulation for a prolonged period of time
(e.g., months). For example, if a patient becomes pregnant and
needs to discontinue stimulation during the pregnancy, put the
device in Hibernate Mode. Hibernate Mode puts the
Neurostimulator in a power- conserving state to preserve the
battery of the Neurostimulator.
The patient does not need to periodically charge the
Neurostimulator when it is in Hibernate Mode.
Note:
Make sure the Neurostimulator battery has a full
charge when it is put in Hibernate Mode. If the battery is
not full, charge the Neurostimulator before putting it in
Hibernate Mode. This will ensure the battery is
preserved for long periods in Hibernate Mode.
How to put the Neurostimulator into Hibernate Mode
: Press the
“Hibernate” button
(
①
)
. A prompt will ask for confirmation
before putting the Neurostimulator into Hibernate Mode. The
Neurostimulator will automatically disconnect from the CP and
the CP will return to the
Home
screen when the
Neurostimulator is in Hibernate Mode.
Note:
The CP and patient Remote Control will not be able to communicate with the Neurostimulator when it is in Hibernate Mode.
How to wake up the Neurostimulator from Hibernate Mode
: Place the Charger over the Neurostimulator to wake the device
from Hibernate Mode. The Charger may not provide the normal feedback for aligning the Charger with the Neurostimulator,
and it may take several minutes for the Neurostimulator to wake up. Check to see if the Neurostimulator is awake by trying to
connect with the CP or the paired Remote Control.
