Testing a Battery
To test the remaining charge in the battery, press the button below the
battery capacity gauge. Lights within the battery capacity gauge show the
amount of charge left in the battery. Each light represents 20% of the battery
capacity. When only one light is on, the battery has between zero and 20%
capacity remaining. When all lights are on, the battery has between 80 and
100% capacity remaining.
Recharging a Battery
To recharge the battery, remove it from the defibrillator and insert it into the
Battery Support System. To charge the battery, see "Charging the Battery" on
page 13-14.
The battery support system can recharge two batteries simultaneously.
Test the capacity of a new battery or one that has been stored more than one
month as described in "Battery Capacity Test" in Chapter 13, "Maintenance".
Continuous recording reduces the monitoring time available.
