Vesta Charger Placement When Not Being
Used for Device Charging
Whenever your Vesta Charger is not being used to charge your
OPTIMIZER Smart Mini IPG, it should be placed in an area
frequented by you (e.g., bedside table in your bedroom),
connected to its AC Adapter, and the AC Adapter plugged into the
wall outlet. This will keep the battery of your Vesta Charger fully
charged as well as ensure regular communications between your
OPTIMIZER Smart Mini IPG and your Vesta Charger.
Note:
Keeping your Vesta Charger continuously connected to its
AC Adapter while it is plugged into the wall outlet will not in any
way harm or weaken the battery in your Charger.
6.10 Frequency of Charging Sessions
The optimal performance of the rechargeable battery in your
OPTIMIZER Smart Mini IPG can only be ensured if the battery is
fully recharged every week. It is not important which day or what
time you choose to charge your OPTIMIZER Smart Mini IPG, but
it is recommended that you do not let more than seven days pass
between charge sessions.
If your Vesta Charger is not used to perform a charging session
on your OPTIMIZER Smart Mini IPG within the time period set by
your doctor, you may see the Long Time Without Charging IPG
alert screen displayed by your Vesta Charger, indicated by an
animated image of the Vesta’s Charging Wand being placed over
a patient’s implanted device.
See Figure 22

If you see this message displayed by your Vesta Charger,
proceed to use your Vesta Charger to charge your OPTIMIZER
Smart Mini IPG. If your attempt to charge your OPTIMIZER Smart
Mini IPG with your Vesta Charger is unsuccessful, contact your
doctor as soon as possible.
