Charging The Batteries; Pendant Switch Battery Indicator Lights - Vancare Vera-Lift V350 Operating Manual

Charging the Batteries

The VERA-LIFT™ has a built-in charger, which works when the power cord is plugged into a
standard 120 volt A.C. outlet. (See charging instructions on the lift.) Plugging the lift into an
outlet continuously for 7 hours, such as at night, will charge the batteries enough for a full
day of patient transfers. Emergencies can arise, however, which may cause the staff to
forget to plug the lift in (example: an emergency near the end of the evening shift). In
order to make sure the VERA-LIFT™ batteries will always be charged, the lift may be
plugged into an outlet whenever it is not being used. Either charging procedure is
acceptable.
WARNING
Be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before moving the VERA-LIFT™
to prevent damage to the lift.
When the VERA-LIFT™ is plugged in, the green "battery charge" light on the pendant switch
will be lit and you will hear a click, which indicate the batteries are being charged.
WARNING
For your protection, the lift will not work while it is charging.

Pendant Switch Battery Indicator Lights

The pendant switch has a green "battery charge" light and a red "low battery" light. The
"battery charge" light will shine when the power cord is plugged into a 120 volt outlet and
the batteries are charging. The "low battery" light will shine when the batteries have used
about 70% of their charge. Although enough charge will remain to do several more
transfers when the "low battery" light is lit, it is important for staff to plug the power cord in
and recharge the batteries.
