SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
7
In the event that an Error message or Warning appears on the
LCD beginning with a 2 or 3, immediately stop all use of the
unit and contact the dealer or Chattanooga Group for service.
Errors and Warnings in these categories indicate an internal
problem with the unit that must be tested by Chattanooga
Group or a Field Service Technician certified by Chattanooga
Group before any further operation or use of the system. Use
of a unit that indicates an Error or Warning in these categories
may pose a risk of injury to the patient, user, or extensive
internal damage to the system.
DO NOT connect the unit to an electrical supply without first
verifying that the power supply is the correct voltage. Incorrect
voltage may cause unit damage, malfunction, electrical shock,
fire, or personal injury. Your unit was constructed to operate
only on the electrical voltage specified on the Voltage Rating
and Serial Number Plate. Contact your Chattanooga Group
dealer if the unit is not properly rated.

this manual. Never attempt to charge the battery pack on any
other charging mechanism.

DANGERS
Do not reverse the polarity of the battery
pack. Doing so can increase the individual cell
temperature and cause cell rupture or leakage.
NiMH Batteries contain Class E corrosive materials. In
the event of battery cell rupture or leakage, handle
battery pack wearing neoprene or natural rubber
gloves. Contents of a ruptured or leaking battery can
cause respiratory irritation. Hypersensitivity to nickel
can cause allergic pulmonary asthma. Contents
of cell coming in contact with skin can cause skin
irritation and/or chemical burns.
Never, under any circumstances, open the battery
pack housing or cells. Should an individual battery
from a battery pack become disassembled,
spontaneous combustion of the negative electrode
is possible. There can be a delay between exposure
to air and spontaneous combustion.
Never dispose of the battery pack in fire. Never
short circuit the battery pack. The battery pack may
explode, ignite, leak, or get hot causing serious
personal injury.
