Charging Lithium-ion Rechargeable Batteries
The li-ion rechargeable battery is recharged using the IntelliVue CL
Charging Station.
To charge a battery, place it onto a charger slot on the charging station. The
battery power indicators will supply information about the charge status.
Warning
 Always use the supplied power cord with the grounded mains plug to
connect the charging station to a grounded AC mains socket. Never
adapt the mains plug from the power supply to fit an ungrounded AC
mains socket.
 Do not use AC mains extension cords or multiple socket outlets. If a
multiple portable socket outlet without an approved isolation
transformer is used, the interruption of its protective grounding may
result in leakage currents equal to the sum of the individual ground
leakage currents, so exceeding allowable limits.
 Do not connect any devices that are not supported as part of the system.
Battery Power Indicators
There are various indications which help you keep track of the battery
power status.
 LEDs on the charging station slots
 battery status information on both the MX40 and the charging station's
display
 INOP messages
The indicators always show the remaining capacity in relation to the
battery's actual maximum capacity which may lessen as the battery ages.
Charging Station LEDs
The nine charger slot LEDs show the battery status of the device in their
slot and are switched off if no battery is inserted.
If a battery is put on a charging station slot, the corresponding LED will
flash yellow until the battery's current state has been identified. Then a
beep is issued and the LED reflects the battery status as described in the
table below.
