Maintain Battery Efficiency with the Deep Discharge Procedure. It is recommended that you do the following procedure at least once a month to maintain efficient performance of the batteries.
Note: The iBOT® Mobility System’s battery charge level should be drained down to ONE bar before performing this procedure.
- Use your iBOT® Mobility System as you normally would during the day.
- Attempt to drain the battery as low as possible while minding the low battery indicators.
- When you are finished using the device for the day, leave it ON with the lights on and select Update Mode on the UCP to minimize the audible alarms as the battery drains.
- Plug the charger in. Ensure the green LED on the charger is lit and the red lights are blinking.
- Let the iBOT® Mobility System power itself OFF. The charger will begin charging the device once it powers OFF.
- Allow extra time the next morning to achieve a full battery charge.
