3.14 Maintenance

The only maintenance required is to clean and disinfect the Vave Probe and battery according to the instructions

in the Cleaning & Disinfecting section of this manual. Perform maintenance regularly and as needed. The system

must be serviced by trained personnel only. Failing to regularly maintain or verify the Vave Probe may lead to

undetected performance errors.

3.14.1 Hardware Maintenance and Storage

Recharging Batteries

When you receive your Vave Probe, charge the battery to 100% before use.

• Because the Vave Probe is battery-operated, you must recharge the battery when necessary. An empty battery

takes approximately 4 hours to fully charge. Once fully charged, a battery has approximately 2 hours of typical

scanning time.

• Charge the battery using only the speciﬁed charger. Connecting the battery charger to a power supply not

manufactured by Vave may expose the battery to the incorrect voltage/current, which could damage the

battery charger.

• Do not charge the battery while on board an aircraft. Charging the battery in a rotary-wing airborne ambulance

may cause the battery charger’s power supply to interfere with the aircraft’s electrical system.

• The battery power level of the Vave Probe is displayed in the Vave App when the Vave Probe is connected to your

smart device. When the battery reaches a charge level equal to less than 10 minutes of residual scanning time,

a visual warning is presented to the user.

Storing Scanners

To protect your Vave Probe:

Dry thoroughly before storage.

Avoid storing in extreme temperatures.

Avoid placing under direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. This will not impact the Vave Probe’s safety

and performance but may discolor the housing’s ﬁnish.

Store separately from other equipment. More details can be found in the System Speciﬁcations part of this

manual under “Environmental Operating, Transient and Storage Conditions.”
