Charging the Battery
The IMD battery is charged inside the IMD. The battery is shipped from the
factory uncharged and not installed. Install and charge the battery before
using the IMD for the first time.
Battery Installation and Removal
Important Note:
The IMD allows you to
replace batteries without
losing information stored in
its memory. To avoid losing
information stored in the
memory, a charged battery
must be installed within
five minutes after removing
the empty battery.
To install the
battery:
1.
Disconnect the IMD
hand-strap (see Figure 3).
2.
Insert the battery, bottom end first, into the battery compartment.
3.
Carefully, press the battery top downward until it clicks and locks in
place - at this stage, the IMD is ready for charging.
To remove the battery:
Press the release button
on the battery (see Figure 3) and pull away the
battery from the IMD.
Important:
You may remove the battery without turning off the IMD.
Once the battery is removed, data will be maintained in the IMD memory
for no more than 5 minutes. Re-install the battery.
