1.4 BatteRY chaRge
The Stepper saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown
mode whenever STEP FASTER appears on the display. If the user
does not maintain a step rate above 35 steps per minute, then a
30-second shutdown process begins.
When the battery voltage is low, LOW BATTERY appears on the display if
the unit is moving into the shutdown mode. The following situation is
the time to recharge the battery:
•
If no one has used the unit for an extended period of time, the battery
may need recharging.
•
The unit continues to function with a low battery, however, user
and program information is lost once the user stops.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adapter
charging unit. The charger should be connected to the Stepper
for a minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. After
a completion of charge, the battery light turns from red into green
(see illustration). If LOW BATTERY still appears on the display in a
full of charging, the battery could be extinct. Please check with an
authorized service technician for replacing the battery.
caution: The battery stored inside the unit contains hazardous
materials to the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required
by the local law.
