14.3 Installing the Battery
Refer to "Installing the Batteries" on page 3 - 5 for details.
WARNING
• The rechargeable lithium-ion batteries should be charged in the speci-
fied central charger.
• If a battery shows signs of damage or signs of leakage, replace it imme-
diately. Use caution in removing the battery. Avoid contact with skin.
Refer to qualified service personnel.
• Some failure conditions, such as short circuits, can cause a battery to
overheat during using. High temperature can cause burns to the patient
or user. If the device becomes too hot to the touch, remove it from the
patient and place aside until it cools. Then remove the battery from the
device, and contact your service personnel to identify the cause of over-
heating.
• Replace the battery immediately once the “Critically Low Battery” alarm
message displays. Replace the battery in time once the “Low Battery”
alarm message displays. If those conditions are not corrected, device
shutdown and cessation of monitoring will result.
• To eliminate the risk of electrical shock or burn, do not carry loose bat-
teries on your person, such as placing the battery in clothing pockets.
CAUTION
• Remove the battery before transporting the device or if the device is not
in use or is being stored.
• AA batteries should be removed from the device at the end of the bat-
tery’s useful life to prevent leakage. In case of battery leakage, use cau-
tion to remove the batteries and clean the battery compartment. Install
fresh AA batteries and check if the TM80/TM70 can power on properly. If
the TM80/TM70 fails to power on, contact your service personnel.
