Switching between mains power and battery mode<br />

<strong>Instructions</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>use</strong>: <strong>Ikus</strong><br />

5.4 Switching between mains power and battery mode<br />

Warning!<br />

• The <strong>Ikus</strong> is designed <strong>for</strong> stationary operation and supply via the mains power network.<br />

Only <strong>use</strong> battery mode when it is absolutely necessary (<strong>for</strong> example, when transporting<br />

the patient).<br />

• As long as the <strong>Ikus</strong> is in battery mode, a second person trained in the <strong>use</strong> of the manual<br />

pump must be constantly present with the patient.<br />

• Only disconnect the <strong>Ikus</strong> from the mains power when the charge level indicator shows<br />

that the batteries are fully charged. (All the yellow LEDs are illuminated.) Important: To<br />

prevent the batteries from wearing out quickly, every period of battery mode should be<br />

followed by at least 6 h of mains power operation.<br />

• If the LEDs on the charge level indicator are flashing or the message “Batteries<br />

discharged - <strong>use</strong> power supply!” appears: Switch to mains power immediately!<br />

• If the batteries are completely discharged (the red LED lights up), if you continue to run<br />

in battery mode there is a risk of total failure of the <strong>Ikus</strong> and damage to the batteries.<br />

Note<br />

• As long as the <strong>Ikus</strong> is in battery mode, an acoustic signal sounds after 10 minutes. This<br />

acoustic signal can be acknowledged.<br />

• As soon as the batteries have reached a low charge level, the acoustic signal sounds once<br />

every minute. The <strong>Ikus</strong> must be connected to the mains power supply immediately.<br />

• Battery charge indicator: Depending on the <strong>Ikus</strong> model, 7 or 8 yellow LEDs show the<br />

charge level of the batteries (see below). A red LED shows when the batteries are<br />

completely discharged!<br />

1 2<br />

1) Battery charge indicator with 7 yellow LEDs, red LED on the left next to the yellow LEDs<br />

2) Battery charge indicator with 8 yellow LEDs, red LED above the yellow LEDs<br />

Recommendation<br />

• Always have the mains power cable nearby when running in battery mode. This allows<br />

you to restore mains power operation at short notice when required.<br />

Switching to battery mode<br />

<strong>Instructions</strong><br />

1. Set the power switch (mains power switch) to OFF/Aus [O]. The battery operation<br />

indicator lights up.<br />

2. Disconnect the <strong>Ikus</strong> from the mains power.<br />

3. During operation in battery mode, pay attention to displays and messages. (See the<br />

table corresponding to the number of yellow LEDs.)<br />
