Optionally, you may also have an AirBelt for extended battery life. That packaging
contains the following, as shown in Figure 4:
• AirBelt battery belt
• AC power supply (100-240 volts, 50/60 Hz) with power cord (alternative power
cords available for use in various countries)

Before operating FreeStyle for the first time, familiarise yourself with the locations
of the major components. These are illustrated in the figures on the following pages
and discussed later in the manual.
IV. 1. Battery Charging
Check to make sure your unit's battery is fully charged before venturing out with
FreeStyle for the first time or upon subsequent use. To check the level of charge
of the internal battery, press the BATT button on FreeStyle's keypad. The battery
gauge/indicator(s) LEDs above the BATT button illuminate to indicate the level of
internal battery charge (25-100%).
To charge FreeStyle's internal battery, simply connect its AC power supply or DC
power supply into the unit's power connection inlet (as shown in Figure 5) and
the other end to its proper AC or DC power outlet. FreeStyle's internal battery will
completely recharge from its fully depleted state in approximately 3½ hours. While
charging the battery, the battery gauge/indicator(s) on the FreeStyle unit's keypad
will illuminate to indicate the level of internal battery charge. When fully charged,
all four LEDs will illuminate continuously.
The optional AirBelt, which can increase FreeStyle's battery duration to up to 10
hours, requires approximately 3 hours to completely charge when the external
battery is fully depleted. To recharge AirBelt, connect its own AC power supply to
the end of AirBelt's power cord (as shown in Figure 6), and the other end of the
power supply into a proper AC power outlet. A separate battery gauge/indicator for
checking the level of charge on the AirBelt's battery is located on this accessory's
cord and functions exactly like the internal battery's indicator on the keypad.
