Once fully charged, the battery indicator will
stop animating and will have 4 solid bars in the
battery (see illustration to the right) and the
System Indicator Light will be
solid
GREEN.
After about one minute of being fully charged,
the display will turn off and the stimulator
will continue to trickle charge the battery. There is no harm in leaving the
stimulator plugged into the AC Charger.
It is recommended that the BiowavePRO Li-ion batteries be charged up
every evening. There are no memory issues with the BiowavePRO battery
system and Li-ion battery systems do not need to be fully discharged prior to
recharging. Li-ion battery systems may also be recharged or “topped off” in
between single treatments.
In order to use the neurostimulator and plug in the leadwire cable, the AC
Charger must first be unplugged from the neurostimulator.
6.3 Replacing the Battery
For battery replacement on the BiowavePRO
®
neurostimulator, contact
Biowave Corporation at 1-877-BIOWAVE x1 (1-877-246-9283 x1) to order a
new replacement battery.
After fully charging up the BiowavePRO
neurostimulator, when attempting to start a new
treatment, if the display shows a picture of a
PLUG with an arrow pointing to an OUTLET (see
illustration to the right), then the battery is not
holding a charge and it is time to replace the
battery system.
Biowave Li-ion batteries are rated for 500 complete charge and discharge
cycles or for approximately 18 - 24 months depending upon usage.
Customers may replace the battery (simple instructions are included) or the
entire BiowavePRO neurostimulator may be returned to Biowave Corporation
for battery replacement.
Li-ion batteries should be recycled appropriately.
