    (per battery) when fully discharged. The battery does not need to be fully discharged before charging. LIFE SPAN Under normal conditions the average life span of the Freedom CPAP Battery is generally around 400-500 charge/discharge cycles. The amount of charge the battery will hold will gradually decrease due to usage and aging.

    CPAP Battery Kit. See page 1 for more information. Some older obsolete PAP devices and targeted ventilation PAP devices may not be compatible with or may require more power than the Freedom CPAP Battery can provide. Reference the instructions in this manual for your specific PAP device to determine which connection components are required.
  • Page 7: Average Run Times

    Average Run Times Multiple factors will affect how long the Freedom CPAP Battery will power a PAP device, including, but not limited to device type, pressure setting, altitude, humidifier usage, and the required connection component type. BiLevel devices will have lower run times as the pressure setting is not constant and changes throughout the night requiring more power to operate the device.
  • Page 8: Getting Started

    Getting Started INITIAL BATTERY USAGE Before using the Freedom CPAP Battery for the first time be sure to charge it fully. It may only take a short time for the battery charge level to reach 100% as it is already partially charged before it leaves the factory.

    AC power supply in approximately 4 hours (per battery) when the battery is fully discharged. CHARGING IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY The AC power supply of the Freedom CPAP Battery will operate on any AC current from 100-240VAC and 50/60 Hz without any adjustment. An international electrical adapter plug is the only additional component that is required to charge the battery in a foreign country.
