The “INTERNAL BATTERY“ indicator flashes (

Figure 6-4.
Power Indicators When Charging the Battery
When the battery charge is complete, the “INTERNAL BATTERY“ indicator turns off.
Warning
Even if the “INTERNAL BATTERY“ indicator is off, charge of the battery may sometimes be
incomplete regardless of charge time when the ambient temperature is above 40 °C (104 °F).
This is due to the characteristics of the battery’s internal heat safety device.
Although it is not necessary to start the ventilator to charge the battery, charging the battery during operation
will increase the time required to fully charge the internal battery.
When recharging a depleted internal battery, it may be necessary to leave the ventilator on charge for up to six
(6) hours if the ventilator is on standby and about 13 hours if ventilation is operating.
Warning
Ensure that the ventilator’s internal battery is fully charged before connecting the ventilator to
an external DC power source. Powering the ventilator using an external 12–30 VDC power
source (via the DC power cable) does not enable charging of its internal battery.

Storage
If the ventilator is to be stored for an extended period of time, it is not necessary to remove the battery. How-
ever, the ventilator should be stored in cool, dry, well-ventilated environment, as follows:
•
Temperature: approximately 21 °C (70 °F)
•
Humidity: less than 80% RH
