5. Getting started
5.1. How to charge the batteries
iScan mini is powered by a Li-ion 14.4 V 2.25 Ah rechargeable battery. The battery has an internal thermal fuse
protecting it against overheating during charging.
Mascot charger, type 2440, is intended only to charge the batteries of the iScan mini ultrasound scanner. It is
adopted to the mains 110-240 V / 60 Hz.
Charging duration: 3 hours.
Operating time: 3h 40 min when fully charged.
In order to charge the battery, connect the charger to the mains, and the plug to the battery in accordance
with the diagram:
A colour diode on the charger housing indicates the battery charging level. The red colour means that the bat-
tery is discharged, the green colour means that the battery is charged. When the green diode of the charger
starts ashing, it means that the battery is fully charged and the charger is in stand-by mode.
Warning! The battery can be charged only with the charger supplied by the manufacturer.
Warning! — It is forbidden to perform any unauthorised repair of the charger nor
to dismantle the device.
User safety and reliability of the device require that the charger not be used in hu-
mid and wet places.
Before you start using the charger, always check if its main components, including
the cables, are not damaged.
Attention! If any damage is detected, disconnect the device from the mains immediately and replace
the damaged part with a new one, by contacting an authorised service centre.

5.1.1. Safety measures for handling a Li-Ion battery pack
• Never dismantle the battery pack which forms an integrated unit.
• Never short-circuit contacts in the battery pack casing using metal items.
• Do not throw battery packs into the fire nor heat them up.
• Never expose the battery packs to mechanical impact. Do not throw them.
• If you notice electrolyte leakage, stop using the battery pack immediately.
• Never allow liquid to penetrate the battery pack, it may cause a sudden temperature rise and a
danger.
• Battery packs should not be left in high ambient temperature, for example, inside a car directly
exposed to sunlight, or near a source of heat. Failure to follow these principles can cause leakage
of electrolyte from the battery and its damage or shorten its service life.
5.2. How to connect the batteries to the ultrasound scanner
The battery is to be connected on the rear wall of the ultrasound scanner.
Before connecting, make sure that the contacts of the ultrasound scanner and the battery are dry.
In order to connect the battery, follow the gure below:
