Instructions
1.
Place the Keyswitch at the front of the unit in the ON position. (Figure 3.1) Check the battery
charge to make sure the battery has a charge. The battery level display is displayed by a
bargraph on the top panel, this gives the practitioner an indication of the level of charge of the
internal battery. If normally operated with connection to mains the charge level should be
approximately 90% to 100%.
If operating the laser on batteries, and the battery level is 25% or less at the end of treatment, it
is recommended that the unit be connected to mains overnight to recharge the battery.
The battery charge cycle takes 14 hours minimum to achieve full charge and requires the mains
supply to be connected. The laser can be switched off at the keyswitch and the battery will still
charge provided the "Mains/Charging" indicator on the top panel is illuminated. Please note: To
prevent damage to the battery, fully charge on a monthly basis when not in use. If the battery
completely discharges, it will not recharge and the laser will be inoperable.
2.
Plug the line cord into the back of the unit. (Figure 3.2) Plug the line cord (ME 7293) into a
grounded wall outlet that is rated from 100 to 240 volts AC 50/60 Hz. Your power supply must
match the voltage requirements listed on the serial number label of your device. Do not connect
the Laser Sys*Stim 540 to a power supply rated differently than that described above It is
important that the Laser Sys*Stim 540 be operated from a wall outlet which has a nominal supply
voltage equal to that indicated on the label on the rear panel. Safety and performance
specifications are only valid if these voltages are the same. Verify that the mains/charging
indicator is on.
3.
The line cord comes equipped with a standard 3–prong plug. This plug provides grounding for
the Laser Sys*Stim 540. Do not defeat its purpose by using 3–to–2 prong adapters or any other
means of attaching to a wall outlet.
4.
Plug the laser or cluster applicator into the receptacle located next to the key. The applicator is
connected to the eight pin socket, observe the keyway which aligns the pins in the correct
orientation. Once connected the plug can be locked in place by turning the outside ring
clockwise. The Laser Sys*Stim 540 has interchangeable treatment applicators. To prevent
possible damage to sensitive circuitry and potential malfunction, applicators should only be
connected or removed from the unit with the power keyswitch is in the "OFF" position.
5.
Place the Keyswitch at the front of the unit in the ON position to ready the unit for a treatment.
Please note: Leave the keyswitch in the OFF position whenever the Laser Sys*Stim 540 is not in
use.

The battery charge cycle takes 14 hours minimum to achieve full charge and requires the unit to
be plugged into the wall socket. The laser can be switched off at the keyswitch and the battery
will still charge provided the "Mains/Charging" indicator on the top panel is illuminated.
