This chapter descibes how to care for your
patient programmer and accessories.
Patient programmer batteries
Always keep two new AAA alkaline batteries
available for replacement. New batteries
provide about two months of use, depending
upon how often the patient programmer is
used.
You can check your patient programmer
batteries at any time. The patient
programmer also monitors its own battery
charge and will display the following screens
when the batteries are low or depleted
(Figure 7.1).
Caution: If the device will not be used for
several weeks, remove the batteries from
the device. A battery left in the device
may corrode, causing damage to the
electronic components.
