Appendix A – Maintenance: Maintaining the Battery
Periodic Maintenance
In addition to normal system use, periodic deep discharge
cycles may be required to ensure consistent battery
performance.
A deep discharge cycle occurs when the battery is
discharged until the system shuts down and the battery is
charged until it is full.
GE Medical Systems Information Technologies
recommends one deep discharge cycle once every three
months.
á GE Medical Systems Information Technologies does not
recommend over-exercising the battery with deep discharge
cycles. See the MAC 5000 Service Manual for more battery
maintenance and diagnostic information.
Replacing the Battery

Do NOT dispose of the battery pack by fire or
burning. Follow local environmental guidelines
concerning disposal and recycling.
á If battery fluid contacts your skin, eyes, or clothing,
immediately wash the area with clean water and see a doctor.
á To prevent loss of data, remove the AC power cable from the
AC wall outlet and power off the system before removing the
battery.
á After removing and replacing the battery, the battery gauge
symbol resets to empty. Connect your system to an AC wall
outlet to ensure a fully charged battery.
