Disposal Of Device Components; Performance Considerations; Monitor Readings - Nellcor N-395 Operator's Manual

Note: If the AC voltage selector switch on the rear panel does
not match the AC voltage source, the monitor inay iun
on battery power, even though it is plugged in, which
will eventually result in a low priority alai~n and a
lighted low battery indicator. Ensure that the switch
setting matches the AC voltage.
If the monitor is not connected to AC power within
approximately 15 minutes, it will shut down.
Note: As the battery is used and recharged over a period of
time, the amount of time between the onset of the low
battery alarm and the instrument shut-off may become
shorter.

canilot be turned back on.
It is recommended that qualified service personnel replace the
internal battery every 24 months.

months or longer, notify service personnel to remove the
battery from the monitor prior to storage. Recharge the
battery when it has not been charged for 2 or more months.
