The LiteGait® battery is charged using a low current, hos-
pital guideline approved charger. The charger has an in-
dicator  LED  light  that  turns  green  when  the  charger  is 
plugged in and not connected to the LiteGait®. When the 
battery  is  charging  the  LED  turns  red  and  then  back  to 
green after the battery is fully charged.
