Charging Steps - Boston Scientific Precision Manuel

Precision™ Spinal Cord Stimulator System Clinician Manual
Failure to recharge may lead to loss of
stimulation in less than 24 hours and the
following message will appear on the Remote
Control: "Recharge Stimulator Now." After
stimulation stops, communication with the
Stimulator will also cease and multiple
recharge sessions may be required. Until a
sufficient level of charge has been attained,
the Stimulator may not communicate with the
Remote Control.

Charging Steps

WARNINGS:
• Do 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 Charging 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 centered.
4. Secure the Charger over the Stimulator
by using either an adhesive patch or the
Charging Belt.
• Adhesive Patch: Remove the clear liner
from the patch. Apply the white side with
the blue stripe to the back of the Charger.
