6 Charging the battery
The following points must be observed when charging the battery:
•
The capacity of a fully charged battery is sufficient for one full day.
•
We recommend charging the product overnight when used by the patient on a daily basis.
•
When used daily, the complete charging unit (power supply – battery charger) may remain
plugged into the wall socket.
•
The battery should be charged for at least 3 hours prior to initial use.
•
Use the 757L500 battery charger to charge the battery.
6.1 Connecting the power supply and battery charger
1) Slide the country-specific plug adapter onto the power supply until it locks into place (see
fig. 1).
2) Connect the round plug of the power supply to the receptacle on the battery charger so that
the plug locks into place (see fig. 2).
INFORMATION: Ensure correct polarity (guide lug). Do not use force when connecting
the cable plug to the battery charger.
3) Plug the power supply unit into the wall socket.
6.2 Connect battery charger to the product
6.3 Display of the current charge level
Power supply and battery charger operating states
During the charging process, the current battery charge level (Status signals) is indicated by the
LEDs on the battery charger lighting up in sequence (see fig. 3, items 2-5).
Querying battery charge level on prosthetic system
The battery charge level can be queried at any time.
1) With the prosthetic system switched on, press the charging receptacle button and hold for
less than one second.
2) The LED display on the charging receptacle provides information on the current battery
charge level (Status signals).
6.4 Safety Shutoff
The purpose of the Axon-Bus prosthetic system safety shutoff is to protect the battery; it is
triggered in case of:
•
Excessively high or low temperature
•
Overvoltage or undervoltage
•
Short circuit
After a short circuit, the charging plug must be plugged into the charging receptacle and then
unplugged in order for the electronics to be activated.
