12. Charging the Bridge Communicator
e Bridge Communicator has rechargeable batteries. You can charge the batteries any time the battery level is below 100%.
Routinely check your battery levels, and charge a device when needed.
Note:
For instructions on how to recharge the iPad on which the Clinician Programmer Application resides, refer to the
Apple iPad User Guide available at support.apple.com.
You can use the Clinician Programmer while the iPad or Bridge Communicator are charging.
When the communicator battery is fully charged, the battery level icon displays four bars.
If the battery level drops below 10%, the battery level icon has no bars and ashes before the Bridge Communicator turns
o.
Caution: If you store the Bridge Communicator for an extended period of time, make sure to fully charge the battery
before storing, and periodically charge the battery at least every six months. e Bridge Communicator uses a small
amount of battery charge while turned o and may become non-rechargeable if not periodically charged.
To charge the battery:
Connect the power cord to the Bridge Communicator and plug the power cord into a power outlet.
Note: For detailed information on the power cord, refer to the instructions for use packaged with the power cord.
