AC and DC (Battery) Operation

Note—When AC is connected and the monitor is on, the Battery Charge LEDs may take some time to cycle to the appropriate charge indication. The V24CT or V26CT may under report battery capacity during this setting period. Use the fuel gauge rather than the Battery Charge LEDs during this period to estimate battery capacity or turn the monitor off to accelerate the charge setting time.

•A fully depleted battery will charge to 90% of full capacity in 4 hours when the monitor is not being used. When the monitor is in use, it will take approximately 16 hours to charge the batteries to 90%.

•To preserve battery integrity, the battery must be fully charged each time the battery is depleted.

•A new battery or one that has been stored for an extended period requires 4 hours of charging before use.

•To operate on internal battery power only, disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

•Batteries should be discarded if there are visual signs of damage

•Life expectancy of a battery depends on the frequency and duration of use. When properly maintained and stored, the life expectancy of a battery is about 1.5 years. For more aggressive use models, life-expectancy may be less. Philips recommends replacing sealed lead acid batteries once a year. The date of manufacture can be found on the battery.
