5 Battery Charging
Please advise user of the charging information in this section.
The batteries are not field replaceable and will be replaced as
necessary when serviced.
Read the user instructions supplied with the
charger before using for the first time.
We recommend the Elan is charged daily; it should take 2
hours to charge fully, depending on residual charge. An
exhausted or flat battery may take longer.
Lay the limb on a flat surface and use the Charger Cable
Adapter to connect the charger into the socket in the top
of the Elan body.
Use the indicator light on the charger to confirm that
charging has initiated correctly:
The Elan will take several seconds to reset when the charger is disconnected and a single blue
flash from the LED will confirm a correct startup.
1. Only charge the batteries in the Elan using the charger supplied with the product.
Do not use this charger for charging any other device.
2. The battery charger can be used with an electrical outlet that is rated
between 100V and 240V AC, 50/60Hz.
3. Never plug the charger into the Elan while still wearing the limb.
4. During charging no power is delivered to the ankle control system.
5. The front of the ankle may become warm during charging but should never be too
hot to touch. There should be no abnormal smell. If this is the case immediately
unplug from electrical supply and contact your service provider.
6. Do not refit the limb until the charger has been disconnected.
7. Always recharge the Elan before use if it has not been used for an extended period of
time.
8. Ensure the connector cover is refitted after charging
9. When charging an empty battery the charger may revert to trickle charge as a
precaution to prevent damaging the battery.
