Battery Information

Your pager operates with a single AA-size alkaline battery (do not use carbon zinc batteries). The AA-size battery also recharges the pager’s internal transmit power source.

Two AA-size batteries are provided with your pager. The first battery already installed in your pager keeps the internal transmit power source charged and may not last long. Use the second AA-size battery to replace the first AA-size battery.

A battery gauge is provided within the Vital Signs feature on the Main menu. Refer to “Checking Vital Signs” on page 28.

If cdisplays, the pager’s AA-size battery is low. Replace the AA-size battery.

If it has been a while since the battery was replaced, you may need to allow the pager’s internal transmit power source to charge overnight (or for a number of hours) to ensure proper operation of your pager.

Note: This product may contain a Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable battery that must be recycled or disposed of properly. Recycling facilities may not be available in all areas.
