Recharging the
backup battery
To recharge the battery, connect the bed to the electricity
supply. Allow at least eight hours to recharge the battery when
it is completely discharged.
While the battery is recharging, the ACP battery indicator lights
yellow. The indicator will go out when the battery is fully
charged.
Low power
mode
When the bed is disconnected from mains power, it enters a
low power mode to conserve battery power. In this state, the
underbed lights, the indicators on the control panels and the
weighing system display are turned off.
Pressing any of the control buttons brings the bed out of low
power mode. The bed will return to low power mode two
minutes after the last control button was pressed.
Duty cycle
lockout
Continuous operation of the controls may exceed the duty
cycle of the bed’s electrical system, causing the indicators
above the buttons to flash. After 30 seconds, the indicators will
light and all functions are locked.
If this happens, wait for at least 18 minutes then follow the
unlocking procedure described in the section “Function
lockout” on page 40.
WARNING
If the battery is left discharged for long periods, its operational life will
be reduced.
The battery must only be recharged using the built-in charger. Do not
use a separate charger or power supply.
The backup battery must be ventilated while recharging. Do not cover
the battery vent hole or obstruct the area around it.
