If the audible alarm and the orange light flashes with the indicator
icon blinking, the battery charge is low. Install a fully
charged battery pack.
If the audible alarm is beeping, the orange light is blinking, and
the
icon is displayed, the continuity of the circuit has been
interrupted. First, check that the electrodes are making good
contact with the skin. If alarm is still on, detach the electrode and
repeat this procedure with one of the other electrode lead wires
supplied with your stimulator. If the alarm stops, the original lead
wires may be defective. If the
icon appears, there is a problem
with the stimulator. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIX IT YOURSELF.
Contact Biomet or your sales representative.
