12.5 Battery and mains indicators

12.5.1 Battery indicator

The battery icon will illuminate when battery drops to 10% or less of the 
full charge level. It is accompanied by a audible and visual alarm. The 
icon will flash whilst the battery is charging (less than 100%).

12.5.2 Mains disconnect indicator

The mains disconnect icon will illuminate when mains power is 
unavailable. The icon remains illuminated until mains power is 
restored. It is accompanied by a audible and visual alarm.

Note: If both the battery indicator and mains icon flash when the power 
button is depressed the battery is depleted, the user will be unable to restart 
the unit until mains power has been restored.

12.6 Power related faults

12.6.1 With mains power connected

If both the battery and mains indicator lights are flashing, this indicates that there 
is a hardware fault. The unit should be removed from service.

Note: If the battery icon is illuminated and fixed the battery has failed or has 
been disconnected.

12.6.2 With mains power disconnected

If both the battery and mains indicator lights are flashing whilst pressing the mains 
power on button, the main battery is completely discharged. The user will not be 
able to start the device on battery power. Connect mains power and allow the unit 
to charge the battery for 8 hours. It is not recommended that the unit be used on 
battery power when mains power is available. The purpose of SLE1000 battery is 
to allow continued operation in the event of a mains power failure.

Warning: If the unit has shutdown due both mains power being 
disconnected and battery depletion, the user will be unable to restart the 
unit until mains power has been restored.
