Caution
• Monitors left unused (and not plugged in) for 2 months or more may exhibit
lower battery life, even after a full 8 hour charge. In this case, the battery will
need to be replaced to regain full 25 minute capability. It is recommended
that you leave the monitor plugged in overnight at least once a month if it
could be left unused for periods exceeding 2 months.
Note: For optimal battery performance over its lifetime, you should allow the battery
to fully discharge on an occasional basis.
Routine Maintenance Requiring Service
System Battery Icon
The service battery icon will alert the user, at startup, when a battery is nearing
the end of its expected service life. The backup battery has an expected service
life of 4 years from installation date. The system batteries (which power the monitor’s
date, time and system error code memory) have an expected service life of 8 years
from installation date.
When the service battery icon appears on the screen at startup, contact your local
Terumo Cardiovascular Group representative or call 1-800-521-2818 for service.
