Battery Pack Replacement

Replace the battery pack when it is no longer able to hold a charge.
When the system is disconnected frequently from the AC power (for a duration of greater

than four to eight hours), replace the battery every 12 to 18 months.
When the system is only occasionally disconnected from the AC power (for a duration of

approximately four hours), replace the battery every three years.
Example of an AC Tray panel with the battery pack charge indicator LED.
The battery pack charge indicator LED is located at the rear of the system, on the AC Tray
panel. A green blinking LED indicates that the battery is actively charging. A solid green LED
indicates that the battery pack is fully charged. If the LED is not illuminated, then there is a
problem with the battery pack, or the battery pack may be missing.
