USING THE SurePower II Battery Pack

Displaying Battery Runtime The SurePower II Battery Packcan display its present status.

To display the status of the SurePower II Battery Pack, press and release the Display button (momentary press) on the top of the battery. When you press and release the Display button, all LEDs blink to indicate that they work. The battery then lights specific LEDs for approximately 10 seconds to indicate the battery’s runtime, calibration status, and fault state. We describe what these LEDs indicate in the following sections.

Note:

The SurePower II Battery Pack’s LEDs light only when the Display button is pressed.

SurePower II Battery Pack Icon

LED Indications

This is the runtime indicator that displays the estimated runtime of the SurePower II Battery Pack in your defibrillator. When you momentarily press and release the Display button on the SurePower II Battery Pack, the LEDs above these icons light for approximately 10 seconds to indicate the battery’s estimated run time. If the battery is fully charged, the LED over each of the five runtime indicator icons illuminates. As the battery discharges, the number of illuminated LEDs decreases. As the SurePower II Battery Pack discharges, pressing the Display button will light, from left to right, the LED’s that indicate the battery’s run time. For example, if four LED’s light, the battery can power a defibrillator/monitor for at least 3 hours (displayed as 3:00+); if three LED’s light, the battery can power the defibrillator/monitor for at least 2 hours (displayed as 2:00+), and so on. When you press the Display button on a battery that is installed and powering a defibrillator/monitor, the runtime indicator displays the run time for the battery in that specific unit. When a SurePower II Battery Pack is not installed in a ZOLL defibrillator/monitor unit, the runtime indicator displays the runtime for the battery at a nominal drain rate for that unit. Note: If the left-most LED of the runtime indicator blinks, the battery has less than fifteen minutes of use left, and defibrillator shutdown will soon occur. Recharge the battery as soon as possible.

SurePower II Battery Pack Icon

LED Indications

This is the Recalibration icon. This LED lights for approximately 10 seconds (after you press and release the Display button) if the battery needs to be calibrated. If the Recalibration LED lights, the runtime indicator will not display run time for that battery. For best performance of the battery, you should recalibrate the battery as soon as possible. To manually recalibrate the SurePower II Battery Pack, you can insert the battery into the SurePower Charger Station (using the SurePowerTM II Battery Adaptor) and perform a ManualTest (for more information, see the ZOLL SurePower Charger Station Operator’s Guide). After you recalibrate the battery, the Recalibration LED will only flash momentarily when you press the Display button.

This is the Fault Icon. If the SurePower II Battery Pack detects a battery fault, this LED lights for approximately 10 seconds after you press the Display button. If the Fault LED lights, the runtime indicator will not display run time for that battery. See the following section for more information on battery faults.

Cleaning Clean the SurePower II Battery Pack with a soft damp cloth and mild soap. Do not immerse or set the SurePower II Battery Pack in fluids of any kind. Do not use alcohol or ketones to clean the SurePower II Battery Pack.

Maintenance -- Testing and Inspection Perform a battery check, which verifies that the battery is fully charged and fault free, as part of any regularly scheduled unit test. Press the battery’s Display button to perform the battery check. As part of your defibrillator/monitor maintenance program, verify that the battery’s LEDs work (press the Display button to test LEDs) -- if the LEDs do not work, remove the battery from service. Also check the SurePower II Battery Pack casing for cracks, damaged contacts and sockets, or other damage -- if the battery pack is cracked or damaged, remove it from service.

USING THE SurePower II Battery Pack Extended Storage Do not store the SurePower II Battery Pack for extended periods in a fully charged state. If you must store the battery pack for an extended period 1. Charge the SurePower II Battery Pack until three runtime LEDs light (this takes approximately 1.5 hours when charging a fully depleted battery). 2. Recharge the SurePower II Battery Pack until three runtime LEDs light every 4 months.

Checking Capacity Loss To check battery capacity (the amount of charge the battery can hold), press and hold down the Display button for at least 5 seconds.

Press and hold down the Display button for at least 5 seconds.

While you hold down the Display button, the runtime indicator displays the battery runtime. When you release the Display button, the runtime indicator displays the battery capacity for 2 seconds, then redisplays the battery runtime.

During the 2 seconds after you release the Display button, the runtime indicator displays battery capacity and will light five LEDs to indicate that the capacity is equal or close to that of a new battery. After displaying battery capacity for 2 seconds, all LEDs blink and then display the battery’s runtime. Over time, as you use a SurePower II Battery Pack, the battery capacity decreases and this capacity check will light fewer LEDs. When the capacity check lights only a single LED, the battery is at or near 60% of its original capacity, and you should remove the battery from service. If the Recalibration or Fault LED lights after you release the Display button, the runtime indicator will not display the capacity or run time for that battery.

Understanding Battery Faults The SurePower II Battery Pack can detect one or more simultaneously occurring faults that render the battery unfit for use. To determine the faults that affect a battery, follow this procedure when the fault light is on: Press and hold down the Display button for at least 15 seconds. If the battery does not detect any battery faults, all of the LEDs will light for 10 seconds.

The Fault LED will blink to indicate the code that identifies the battery fault (there will be a brief delay before the LED blinks). The fault codes number from 1 to 29. To indicate fault code 1, the Fault LED blinks once. To indicate fault code 2, the LED blinks twice, and so on. If the battery detects multiple battery faults, it displays the first fault code, pauses briefly, and then displays the next fault code, and so on.

The following table lists battery temperature faults and actions you can take to clear these fault conditions. All other fault codes require you to remove the battery from service. For more information on these fault codes, see the appropriate ZOLL defibrillator/monitor service manual.
