It is possible to exchange a battery while Reocor D is in use.
The device remains ready for use for at least 30 s at the ambi-
ent temperature (20 ± 2°C) when the battery is removed.
For safety reasons, the patient should be paced by another
source during the battery replacement.
Do not use rechargeable batteries. The service time of these
batteries is difficult to estimate, making it possible to inad-
vertently exceed the ERI, resulting in a sudden loss of pacing.
The battery compartment (2) is located on the right side of the
device, and can be opened by pushing the blue slider upwards
and pulling out the drawer towards the right. Remove the
battery carefully.
To protect the battery poles, a rubber plug can be put on the
new battery. Remove it before you insert the new battery.
Caution!
The preferred pole orientation is marked in the battery com-
partment. When inserting the new battery you only need to
ensure that the battery poles point to the middle of the hous-
ing. The position of the plus and minus pole can be selected
freely.
Insert the new battery with the bottom (Figure 15) down first
into the battery compartment.
Figure 15: Inserting the battery
Close the drawer and press the blue slider down until it snaps
in place with an audible click.
Note:
If the pacemaker is stored or will not be used for a long period
of time, it is recommended to remove the battery to prevent
damage due to leakage.
