3. Take out the old battery.
4. Insert the new battery in the direction indicated.
5. Close the battery door.

8.3 Optimizing Battery Performance

A battery needs at least two optimizing cycles when it is put into
use for the first time. A battery cycle is one complete, uninter-
rupted charge of the battery, followed by a complete, uninterrupted
discharge of the battery. A battery should be conditioned in this way
regularly to maintain its useful life. In addition to the initial use, ide-
al times to condition a battery are when it is used or stored for two
months or when the battery run time becomes noticeably shorter.
To optimize a battery, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monito-
ring and measuring procedures.
2. Place the battery in need of optimizing into the battery com-
partment.
3. Place the monitor in the charger stand and connect it to AC
power supply. Allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for
at least 6 hours.
4. Disconnect the monitor from the AC power supply and allow
the monitor to run on battery power until the battery is de-
pleted and the device shuts off.
5. Return the monitor to the charger stand and connect it to the
AC power supply. Allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for
at least 6 hours.

8.4 Checking Battery Performance

The performance of a battery may deteriorate over time. To check
battery performance, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monito-
ring and measuring procedures.
2. Place the monitor in the charger stand and connect it to an AC
power supply. Allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for at
least 6 hours.
3. Disconnect AC power and allow the monitor to run on battery
power until it shuts off.
4. Make note of the monitor operating time on battery power.
Operating time is a direct indicator of battery performance. If
you notice a decline in battery operating time span, you may
need to run it through an optimizing cycle or replace it.
Caution: Battery operating time depends on the configura-
tion and operation of the monitor. For example, continuous
monitoring of NIBP and SpO2 will deplete the battery fa-
ster than occasional vital signs spot checks.

8.5 Disposing of Batteries

Batteries that are damaged or depleted should be replaced and
discarded properly. Dispose of used batteries according to local re-
gulations.
Caution: Battery service life depends on how often the mo-
nitor is used and how many features are used. The battery
typically can be charged and discharged
Warning: Do not disassemble batteries or dispose of them
in fire, or cause them to short circuit. They may ignite, ex-
plode or leak, causing personal injury.

9. Maintenance and Cleaning

9.1 Introduction

Keep your equipment and accessories free of dust and dirt. To avoid
damage to the equipment, follow these rules:
1. Always dilute cleaners according the manufacturer's lowest-
possible concentration.
2. Do not immerse any part of the equipment in liquid.
3. Do not pour liquid onto the equipment or accessories.
4. Do not allow liquid to enter the case.
5. Never use abrasive materials (such as steel wool or silver po-
lish) or erosive cleaners (such as acetone or acetone-based
cleaners).
Warning: For optimal performance, product service
should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
Note: To ensure equipment performance and safety, the
monitor should be evaluated by a qualified service techni-
cian after 1 year of use. Contact the device manufacturer
to schedule a service appointment.

9.2 Cleaning the Monitor

1. Common detergents and non-corrosive disinfectants com-
monly used in hospitals can be applied to clean the monitor.
Many of these cleaners must be diluted prior to use. Please
use them according to the instructions of the detergent ma-
nufacturer.
2. Avoid the use of alcohols, amino or acetonyl detergents.
3. The monitor's enclosure casing and touch screen should be
kept free of dust. They can be wiped with a lint-free soft cloth
or moistened sponge. While cleaning, be careful and do not
spill liquid onto the monitor. Be especially careful to keep wa-
ter and liquid out of all cable outlets and USB ports.
4. Do not use abrasive materials, including wire brushes or me-
tal brighteners, during cleaning. They will damage the panel
and monitor screen.
5. Do not submerge the monitor in liquid.
6. If a cable or other attachment accidentally gets wet with
cleanser, please rinse it with distilled water or deionized water
and dry it at 40 degrees C to 80 degrees C for at least one hour.

9.3 Cleaning and Disinfection of Accessories

9.3.1 SpO2 Sensor
Isopropyl alcohol 70% or 10% bleach solution can be used for steri-
lization. Do not use undiluted bleach (5%Ð5.25% sodium hypochlo-
rite) or other non-recommended disinfectants to avoid damaging
the sensor.
Caution:
• Do not sterilize the sensor by radiation, steam or
lene oxide (EtO2).
• Do not directly submerge sensor in liquid.
• To avoid long-time harm to sensor, sterilization should
only be conducted when necessary according to your
facility's regulations.
9.3.2 NIBP Cuff
a. Please regularly clean the product;
b. Remove the cuff from the connector and pull out cuff bladder
form the cover.
c. Submerge a clean and soft medical gauze pad or other soft
cleaning tools into fresh water or neutral soapy water. Wring
out surplus water from the submerged gauze then wipe the
bladder and the tube;
d. Wash the cuff sheath in clean neutral soapy water;
e. After the intensive drying of the sheath and airbag, place the
bladder into the cuff cover and put into operation.
Caution:
• Excessive or frequent cleaning may damage cuff.
• Do not dry cuff at high temperatures.
• If a high level of sterilization is required, please choose a
disposable cuff.
• Be careful to keep water and cleaning solutions out of the
connecting parts of the cuff and monitor.
300 times.
9.3.3 Temp probe
Dampen a cloth or sponge with a 10:1 water/bleach mixture or 70%
isopropyl alcohol. Use this to wipe the sensor occasionally. Duri-
ng cleaning, shake the probe handle to drain out any excess liquid
thoroughly.
Caution: Probe covers are only for single use. Reuse may
cause damage and contamination.
9.4 Maintenance and replacement of accessories
The device should be checked and maintained regularly by profes-
sional personnel to identify whether it is operating properly. Do not
use the device if it is operating abnormally.
Caution:
• Always unplug the device from the power source before
changing any accessories.
• Service personnel should use caution when repairing bro-
ken power cables.
Note: The device's electric schematic and element list
should only be supplied to an eligible service center or
qualified personnel.
