Ultradent Products VALO Cordless Mode D'emploi page 5

Note:
• V ALO Cordless will not operate if batteries are put in backwards. If the VALO Cordless does not turn on when fresh batteries are
inserted, remove the batteries and check to see that they are inserted correctly with the positive (+) battery ends pointed forward, as
shown above.
• D o not insert fingers, instruments, or other objects into the battery compartment.
• D o not attempt to clean the gold contacts, or any other part of the battery compartment. Call Ultradent Customer Service if there is a
concern.
LOW BATTERIES: The VALO Cordless signals the user that it is time to change the batteries when the Low Battery Indicator Light is
flashing red. If the battery charge becomes too low, an audible 3 beep warning sound will occur and the VALO will not allow further
operation until batteries are recharged or new batteries are inserted. (See Warning Light Guide)
Charging Time and Battery Life: Battery life in the VALO Cordless is dependent on the MODE, TIME interval, battery type, amount of
use, and LED efficiency. In general, rechargeble batteries should last 1 - 2 weeks.
Non-rechargeable batteries may last 2 - 3 times longer.
• R ecommended Recharge Interval: When low battery indicator comes on, or approximatley every 1 – 2 weeks.
• E xtra Batteries: Valo Cordless comes with 4 rechargeable batteries. We also reccomend keeping a spare set of non-rechargeable
CR123A Batteries on hand in the event of a problem or loss of the rechargeable batteries.
• B attery Life Expectancy: Rechargeable Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries can be recharged approximately 1000 to 2000 times.
Based on normal use, batteries should last up to five years.
Note: If you are moving the light from operatory to operatory and the light does not go into Sleep Mode then the battery life may be
affected.
Note:
• Make sure batteries are inserted into the charger positive (+) end first.
• If the red light on the charger doesn't turn to green, when the batteries have been charging longer than 3 hours, this means a battery
may be degraded (corrupted) and can not be charged. Try a new battery or call Ultradent Customer Service to order a new set of
rechargeable batteries.
• Do not use batteries if the printed battery label is torn or removed from the battery. Replace with a new battery and recycle old battery.
