Rechargeable Stimulator System
The Precision™ Montage™ MRI Stimulator is rechargeable. Boston Scientific recommends any
recharge routine that fits the patient's schedule and lifestyle while maintaining sufficient charge to
maintain stimulation.
Developing a patient's recharge routine involves finding the right balance among the following:
• How much power is required for the patient to experience effective therapy.
• How often the patient wants to recharge.
• How long the patient wants to recharge.
• How the patient would like to manage their personal schedule.
The Clinician Programmer will estimate charging time based on 24 hours per day of stimulation at the
programmed settings. To charge fully, wait until the Charger emits an end of charge beep signal or the
Remote Control display indicates that the battery is charged. Refer to the Patient's Charger Handbook and
the Physician's Remote Control Directions for Use for additional information. The recharging process is
simple, but important.
Charging Steps
WARNINGS:
• Patient should not charge while sleeping. This may result in a burn.
• While charging, the Charger may become warm. It should be handled with care.
• Failure to use the Charger with either the Charger Belt or an adhesive patch, as shown, may result
in a burn. If pain or discomfort is felt, cease charging and contact Boston Scientific.
The Charger Base Station should be plugged in and the Charger placed in the Base Station when not
in use. When the indicator light is green, the Charger is fully charged. When the indicator is amber, the
Charger is partially charged, but is still able to deliver a charge to the Stimulator.
1. When the indicator light is green, remove the Charger from the Base Station. The indicator light will
then turn off.
2. Press the power button. The indicator light will come on again, and the Charger will begin beeping as it
searches for the Stimulator.
3. Place the Charger over the Stimulator. When the Charger is aligned with the Stimulator, the beeping
will stop.
• Centering the Charger over the Stimulator will ensure the shortest charging time.
• Many patients are able to feel the implanted Stimulator and can place the Charger directly on
top of it.
• Alternatively, centering the Charger within the alignment area (i.e., the area where the Charger
does not beep) will also ensure that the Charger is aligned.
4. Secure the Charger over the Stimulator by using either an adhesive patch or the Charger Belt.
• Adhesive Patch: Remove the clear liner from the patch. Apply the white side with the blue
stripe to the back of the Charger. Then remove the beige liner from the patch. Secure the
Charger over the Stimulator by pressing the adhesive to the skin over the Stimulator.
