04.3 Connecting the device
In order to render the apparatus operational it is necessary to proceed as follows:
1. Place the recharging unit on a flat surface.
2. Plug the power cable (Fig.3 - Ref.E) into the connector on the rear of the apparatus (Fig.5 - Ref.A)
and then into the power outlet. The green power LED should light up (Fig.4 - Ref.A).
�
WARNING:
Make sure that the voltage and frequency of the power-supply line match the values
indicated on the identification label under the recharging unit.
�
DANGER:
Check the condition of the power cable regularly. If it is found to be damaged, replace it
with an original Mectron S.p.A. spare part.
05.0 Battery
The Silverlight is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery already contained inside the handpiece,
with no memory effect.
The Silverlight is equipped with microprocessors that check the battery continuously and maintain the
optimum battery charging parameters.
The handpiece may therefore be placed back into the recharging unit at the end of each treatment and left
there, regardless of the charge of the battery.
05.1 New battery - first charging
NOTE:
The battery of the Silverlight is supplied in a partly charged condition.
To charge the battery completely:
1. Insert the handpiece into its housing in the recharging unit (Fig.5 - Ref.B). The green battery LED will
light up (Fig.4 - Ref.B).
2. The recharging phase has been completed when the green battery LED extinguishes.
05.2 Battery low signal
When the charge of the battery becomes low after frequent use of the Silverlight, the microprocessor will
allow 6 more exposures to be carried out (FAST or SLOW RISE) without any need to recharge the battery.
A battery low state is signaled at the end of each of these six cycles by means of two beeps.
Once the six cycles have been completed, the handpiece enters a battery dead state (see point “05.3”).
Place the Silverlight back into the recharging unit.
