Charge the battery to 100% the first time using your Clarius Ultrasound Scanner.
Because the Clarius Ultrasound Scanner is battery-operated, you must recharge the battery when it is depleted. If the battery is to remain unused for over a month, keep the charge level between 40% and 50% to prolong its life, and store it in temperatures between -20°C (-4°F) and 20°C (68°F). An empty battery takes up to approximately 90 minutes to fully charge.
