Best practice guidance:
Charging your 3M™ Clean-Trace™ LM1 Luminometer
On receipt of your Clean-Trace LM1 luminometer:
Charging your LM1 instrument to a full battery should usually take around 2 hours but on
occasions a longer charge may be required.
Charging your Clean-Trace LM1 luminometer for continued use:
Ensure the luminometer is routinely charged. You can use the battery level indicator to keep
the luminometer charged
to a reasonable level
The battery level indicator is in the upper right corner of the screen.
When the luminometer is switched on, the indicator shows the remaining battery level.
In Figure 1, the indicator shows the battery is fully charged.
As the battery charge decreases, the blue segment of the indicator becomes smaller.
When the battery level is less than 10%, the indicator becomes red, showing the battery
should be recharged.
When the battery level is less than 5%, the LM1 luminometer will automatically shut down.
It is advisable to maintain the charge of your luminometer in the ‘blue’ zone of the battery
indicator. Avoid the battery going below 5% charge and switching off.
