How to charge the battery
The battery can be charged by one of two methods:
Outside of a patient monitor by using the Cadex SMart Two+
charger.
Inside a patient monitor that is connected to an AC power source.
NOTE
To extend the life of the battery, GE recommends that you charge the
battery using the external Cadex SMart Two+ charger.
NOTE
The Cadex SMart Two+ charger is no longer available for purchase.
However, if your site has a Cadex SMart Two+ charger, you should
continue to use it to charge and condition the battery.

NOTE
If the

charger and reinsert it. This should correct any battery charger
time out errors. However, if this does not correct the battery
charger time out errors, then the battery is defective and should

Charging the battery inside a patient monitor
NOTE
Non-recommended (incompatible) batteries will
not
charge in the
Dash patient monitor.
The battery is charged whenever the patient monitor is connected to an
AC power source.
When you store the battery inside of a patient monitor that is connected
to an AC power source (a state known as “floating”), the battery will self-
discharge to less than 90% of its Full Charge Capacity after
approximately two weeks (depending upon the temperature of the
battery). At this time, the patient monitor will automatically recharge
the battery to 100% of its Full Charge Capacity.
