source of power.

Recovery Systems. For information, contact the Organ Recovery Systems 24/7 Perfusion Helpline.
When powered on, LifePort Kidney Transporter draws power from one battery at a time, using the batteries in
series. It is possible to operate LifePort Kidney Transporter with one to four batteries, as each battery delivers the
11 to 12 volts required. However, it is recommended to use all four batteries, keeping the batteries as fully charged
as possible.
NOTE:
Total battery life can be found under the Device Information tab on the Message Display Panel.
Access the batteries through the Battery Door on the LifePort Kidney Transporter back panel. Each battery is
designed to slide in and out of the slots provided. When inserted properly, the battery should be flush with the
slot panel, with the pull-tab visible and available for removing the battery. If the battery does not push flush, it
may be in the wrong orientation. Turn the battery 180 degrees and try again.
