AC Adapter
Battery
The lithium ion battery provides power when an AC power
source is not available. A battery in the battery bay is standard
with the Vivid
i . You can expect one hour of battery life with a
single fully charged battery. Lithium ion batteries last longer
than conventional batteries and do not require replacement as
often.
Note: The battery is
designed to work
with Vivid
i
sys-
tems only. Only use
the batteries autho-
rized by GE.
The lithium ion technology used in the system’s battery is
significantly less hazardous to the environment than the lithium
metal technology used in some other batteries (such a watch
batteries). Used batteries should not be placed with common
household waste products. Contact local authorities for the
location of a chemical waste collection program nearest you.
WARNING
The unit’s power must be supplied from a separate, properly
rated outlet to avoid risk of fire. Refer to "Power requirements"
on page 9 for rating information.
The power cord should not, under any circumstances, be altered
to a configuration rated less than that specified for the current.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.
CAUTION
Use only the special AC Power adapter for Vivid i , specifically
designed and approved by GE.
Be sure that nothing rests on the AC adapter’s power cable and
that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or
stepped on.
Place the AC power adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk,
when you use it to run the Vivid
i .
Do not cover the AC power adapter with paper or other items
that will reduce cooling; do not use the AC power adapter inside
a carrying case.
