GM85 | Operating the System Hardware
WARNING: • If the battery is left uncharged for an extended period (3 months or longer), then the system will automatically disconnect the battery output to protect the battery from over discharging. If this is the case, then the system cannot be turned on again, even if it is connected to the mains. Contact our service engineer in order to reset the battery. • When the battery detects a malfunction, it will shut itself down and an alarm will sound for a certain period of time. If the alarm sounds while the charger is plugged into a power outlet, unplug it immediately. Do not restart the system and contact our service engineer. WARNING: • When not generating X-rays, keep the unit connected to the mains, even when the battery is fully charged. This ensures maximum storage of energy. • The line circuit breaker is designed to switch off when a system error occurs, such as overcurrent between internal circuits and the battery. It is not designed to power Off the system in normal use. If the system has to be powered off in normal use, use the system Power Off button on the main console. • Switch off the line circuit breaker only when system has a problem and the proper system shutdown is not available. If the system has to be switched off using the line circuit breaker, make sure that S-Station has been forced to terminate before switching off the line circuit breaker so that important data or system software is not damaged. • Any improper attempt to have a Lithium battery-powered device replaced by an inexperienced person may result in an unacceptable level of risk (e.g., excessive temperature, fire, or explosion). If a replacement is required, contact our service engineers. DANGER: • Do NOT connect other electrical equipment to the same power outlet by using a power strip or extension cords. Multiple connections to the same outlet can cause overcurrent of the wall outlet. • Charge the battery in a well-ventilated room and Do NOT cover the system during the charging of the battery. CAUTION: • When removing the plug from the electrical outlet, grasp the plug, not the cord. • Hold the plug when rewinding onto the cord reel. Do not allow the plug to whip about when rewinding.

DANGER: • When pulling out the power cable, hold the plug portion and do NOT apply excessive force to the cable. Excessive force may damage the cable or internal cable reel. Do NOT apply excessive force to the cable after the whole cable has retracted. It can cause electric shock or fire by short circuit of power cable. • Place the system under 2.5 meter from cord reel to mains in a straight line to prevent applying excessive force to the cable as the figure below. Also, be careful not to pull out the power cable to the point when the yellow warning strap is visible on the cable. A red warning strap will appear on the cable if the power cable is continuously pulled after the yellow strap is visible. Do NOT pull out the power cable repeatedly to the point when the red warning strap appears. This can cause electric shock or fire by short circuit of power cable.
