14 Battery
14.1 Overview
The monitor has a built-in rechargeable battery to ensure that the monitor can also be used normally in case of patient transfer or
power failure. When the monitor is connected to an power source, it will charge the battery no matter whether the monitor is
turned on or not. In the case of power failure, the system will automatically use the battery to power the monitor to avoid
interrupting the monitor working.
The battery icon on the screen indicates the battery status:
Battery is working properly and is fully charged.
Battery is working properly and the green part indicates the battery power.
Battery power is low, and requires charging immediately, or else the pulse oximeter will turn off automatically.
Battery is not installed.
Battery is properly installed and being charged.
The battery power can only maintain for some time. Low battery voltage will trigger a high level technical alarm “Battery Low”; in
this case, connect the monitor to power and charge the battery.
