Universal Battery Charger II Instructions for Use DePuy Synthes 5
Precautions:
• Only use the Synthes Universal Battery Charger II
(05.001.204) to charge the batteries. Using a char-
ger that does not originate from Synthes can dam-
age the battery.
• Do not open device. Risk of fatal injury due to elec-
tric shock!
• As the charger is not a sterile product, it must not
be used in the sterile area of the operating room.
However, the device may be used in the non-sterile
part of the operating room.
• The device must not come into direct or indirect
contact with the patient.
• The use of HF (= high frequency) equipment for
tissue coagulation can cause electromagnetic
interferences – in this case cables should be sepa-
rated as far as possible.
• Do not wash the device in a washer/disinfector.
The device must not be sterilized. Please see page
18 for information on cleaning and maintenance.
• Do not operate the device in the presence of a am-
mable anesthetics mixture with air or oxygen or
with nitrous oxide.
• Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or
moisture.
• The charging station should always be turned on
when a battery is in the charging bay. This ensures
availability and prevents discharge.
