As the battery ages, the full-charge capacity of the battery will degrade and be permanently lost. As a result, the amount of charge that is stored and available for use is reduced. The following terms are used to define the battery capacity: Revision A Transport Pro 2012659-042...
When the battery is stored inside a monitor that is continuously powered by AC power source and is not powered by battery on a regular basis, the life of the battery may be less than 12 months. GE recommends that you remove the battery and store it near the monitor until it is needed.
3. Charge the battery. Internal GE recommends using the Cadex SMart Two+ Charger to wake up a battery. To wake up a battery inside the monitor, follow this procedure. 1. Connect the external power supply to the DC power connector on the monitor.
