Using the Charging Collar

There are two lengths of the Charging Collar available (Small and Medium). If you need to order a different size Charging Collar
or a replacement Charging Collar, contact Technical Support.
1. When the indicator light is green, remove the Charger from the Base Station.
Note: Once the Charger is removed from the Base Station, the Charger indicator light will turn off regardless of the ready
status of the Charger.
2. If instructed to do so by your healthcare provider,
place the Charging Spacer at the back of the
pocket (Figure 1).
3. Place the Charger into the appropriate pocket on
the Charging Collar with the power button facing
out (Figure 1). If your Stimulator is on the right
side of your chest, place the Charger in the right
pocket. If the Stimulator is on the left side of your
chest, place the Charger in the left pocket.
4. If instructed to use the Charging Spacer, make
sure it is between the Charger and the back of the
pocket (Figure 1).
5. Place the Counterweight in the pocket opposite of the Charger.
