Power

source. It should only be used when other sources are not available or

 

briefly when necessary; for example, when changing power sources.

 

The ventilator has a two-stage low battery alarm. The medium priority

 

alarm indicates that approximately 20 minutes of operation remain,

 

and the high priority alarm indicates that less than 10 minutes of

 

operation remain. Actual run time may be more or less than this and

 

varies with battery age, environmental conditions, and therapy.

 

Immediately seek an alternate power source when the “Low Battery”

 

alarm appears. Complete power failure and loss of therapy is imminent.
