The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 (with QuickCharge or AutoTest) is a battery charger and testing system designed for
management of PD 4410/Smart/Smart Ready Battery and all XL Battery packs used in ZOLL Medical Corporation
resuscitation devices.
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 (with QuickCharge or AutoTest) provides four battery charging/testing
compartments. Up to four battery packs may be charged or tested in any combination at one time.
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 can be configured in either AutoTest or QuickCharge mode. This configuration is
performed by ZOLL Medical Corporation prior to device shipment. The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 is clearly labeled
AutoTest or QuickCharge on the charger label directly beneath the product name. If the device is not labeled, the
QuickCharge instructions should be followed for proper device operation. For questions concerning the charger’s
configuration, please consult a ZOLL technical service representative.
$XWR7HVW
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 with AutoTest automatically tests battery capacity with each battery recharge. In
addition, the ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 with AutoTest illuminates the Batt. Ready indicator when the battery is fully
charged and capable of powering an M Series equipped with Pace/Defibrillation and Pulse Oximetry (SpO2) for
approximately 1.5 hours in Monitor mode. Fully charged batteries whose capacity is insufficient will cause the FAULT
light to illuminate. With AutoTest, the full charging cycle is complete in eight (8) hours or less for the PD 4410/Smart/
Smart Ready Battery, and fifteen (15) hours or less for all XL Batteries. The AutoTest feature virtually eliminates the
need to periodically test battery capacity since this test is performed each time a battery is recharged.
4XLFN&KDU H
The ZOLL Base PowerCharger 4x4 with QuickCharge illuminates the Batt. Ready indicator when the battery is fully
