1. Lift up the lithium-ion battery pack or AA battery tray at the bottom of the TM80/

NOTE

• If the “Low Battery” or “Critically Low Battery” alarm occurs, the TM80/

TM70 turns off the audio, the screen display the “Local Audio Off” mes-

sage, and the screen brightness turns dimmer.

CAUTION

• 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.

• Avoid scraping the metal contactor in the battery compartment while

removing the lithium-ion battery pack or AA battery frame. Otherwise,

the broken contact will affect the power supply performance.

• Remove the battery before transporting the device or if the device is not

in use or is being stored.

NOTE

• Retain the ECG cable and SpO

module with the device while removing

the battery.
