Powering the electrocardiograph

The electrocardiograph runs on AC or battery power. Plug the electrocardiograph into AC

power as often as possible so that the built-in charger can keep the battery charged.

Regardless of the battery condition, you can use the electrocardiograph whenever it is

plugged in.

WARNING When you use AC power, always plug the electrocardiograph
into a hospital-grade outlet to avoid the risk of shock.

WARNING If the integrity of the building’s safety ground is in doubt,
