General Information
3URGXFW'HVFULSWLRQ
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 1x1 (with QuickCharge or AutoTest) is a battery charger and testing system designed for
management of Battery Packs used in ZOLL Medical Corporation resuscitation devices.
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 1x1 can be configured in either the AutoTest or QuickCharge mode. This configuration is
performed by ZOLL Medical Corporation prior to device shipment. The Base PowerCharger1x1 is clearly labeled AutoTest or
QuickCharge on the charger label directly beneath the product name.
$XWR7HVW
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 1x1 with AutoTest automatically tests battery capacity with each battery recharge (when the
battery has been depleted for 10 minutes or more) and illuminates the BATT. READY indicator when the battery is fully
charged. With AutoTest, the full charging cycle is complete in eight (8) hours or less for the PD4410/Smart Battery and fifteen
(15) hours or less for the XL Smart Battery. The AutoTest feature virtually eliminates the need to periodically test battery
capacity since this test is performed each time a battery is recharged. See the M Series Operator's Manual for battery run
time information.
4XLFN&KDU H
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 1x1 with QuickCharge illuminates the BATT. READY indicator when the battery is fully charged.
The full charging cycle is complete in four (4) hours or less for the PD 4410/Smart Battery and eight (8) hours or less for the
XL Smart Battery . The QuickCharge version provides no information regarding battery capacity because it does not test
capacity with each recharge. The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 1x1 with QuickCharge relies on the user to manually initiate the
battery test cycle at recommended intervals (see Manual Battery Testing Procedure) in order to confirm adequate battery
capacity.
+RZWR8VH7KLV0DQXDO
This manual provides information necessary for the use and care of the Base PowerCharger 1x1 and ZOLL Batteries. A
thorough understanding of this information is required for proper charging and maintenance of ZOLL Batteries. Reliable

General Information
Warnings and Cautions
:DUQLQ V
*HQHUDO
•The Base PowerCharger 1x1 has been tested against
interference from radio frequency emissions typical
of two-way radios used in emergency service/public
safety activities. Users of the Base
PowerCharger 1x1 should refer to Section 5 to
determine recommended operation distances from
RF transmission equipment.
•Use only the AC power line cord supplied with the
device. Failure to use the proper line cord could
result in excess leakage currents and reduced
safety.
•Do not disassemble the Base PowerCharger 1x1. A
shock hazard exists. Refer all problems to ZOLL
Technical Service.
•Follow all recommended maintenance instructions.
If a problem occurs, obtain service immediately. Do
not use the Base PowerCharger 1x1 until the unit has
been inspected by the appropriate personnel.
•Do not place anything on top of or beneath the Base
PowerCharger 1x1, such as blankets or cloths. Doing
so may block the vents on the unit, preventing
proper dissipation of heat during operation.
•Do not use adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary
the Base PowerCharger 1x1 should be observed to
verify normal operation.
•Do not sterilize the Base PowerCharger 1x1.
•Do not use alcohol or ketones (MEK, acetone, etc.)
on the Base PowerCharger 1x1.
•Always wait until the Base PowerCharger 1x1 has
completed its charge cycle before removing
batteries.
•Repeated use of partially charged batteries will
reduce their capacity and operating life.
•Do not use a battery unless the BATT. READY
indicator is lit and the FAULT light is off. Failure to do
so may result in the use of a fully depleted battery.
•Do not install batteries into Monitor/Defibrillators
when storage may exceed 90 days. Battery damage
may occur.
2SHUDWRU6DIHW\
•Do not operate the Base PowerCharger 1x1 in the
presence of flammable agents (such as gasoline),
oxygen-rich atmospheres, nitrous oxide, or
flammable anesthetics. Using the device near the
site of a gasoline spill may cause an explosion.
•Do not immerse or set the Base 3RZHU&KDUJHU [ in
liquid. Using the device near or within puddles of
water may present a shock hazard to the operator,
patient, and nearby personnel.
3DWLHQW6DIHW\
•Do not mount the device directly above the patient.
Locate the Base 3RZHU&KDUJHU [ and ZOLL
resuscitation devices where they cannot harm the
patient if they fall.
&DXWLRQ
•When a fully charged battery is placed into the Base
PowerCharger 1x1 with the AutoTest, the AutoTest
will NOT activate and the BATT. READY indicator
will illuminate within a few minutes after inserting the
battery into the charger. Since the AutoTest
sequence is not performed, it is possible to have a
shorter battery run time than expected.
