Care and Maintenance
Storing the BiPAP Focus
When the BiPAP Focus is not in use for periods of 2 weeks or longer, it is
recommended that the unit be stored in a clean, sanitized plastic bag.
While the unit is being stored, ensure that the power switch on the back of
the unit is in the OFF (O) position. If the switch is not turned OFF, the
internal battery will be depleted within two weeks. If the unit is stored with
the power switch in the OFF (O) position, the internal battery will deplete
within 3 months.
CAUTION: To prevent the premature depletion and reduced life
expectancy of the battery, store the ventilator with AC power
connected and the ON/OFF switch in the ON (I) position. When the
ventilator is stored disconnected from AC power with the power
ON/OFF switch ON (I) and in standby, the battery may become
depleted within two weeks. When the ventilator is stored with the
ON/OFF switch in the OFF (O) position, the battery typically
becomes depleted in three months.
If a 343 error code is displayed, contact Service. The battery needs
replacement.
CAUTION: During battery charging, disconnecting AC mains power
before charging completes may result in reduced battery life when
system is used.
NOTE: For maximum battery performance, a new battery or a battery that
has been in storage should be fully charged and discharged two to three
times.
