Warnings, such as the examples below, precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout this
manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed.
1-3-8 Voluson i / Voluson e Battery Safety
NOTE: The Voluson i / Voluson e system is supplied with a lithium ion battery in the battery bay, as standard.
The lithium ion battery provides power when an AC power source is not available. Lithium ion batteries
last longer than conventional batteries and do not require replacement as often. You can expect one
hour of battery life with a single, fully-charged battery.
The lithium ion technology used in the system’s battery is significantly less hazardous to the
environment than the lithium metal technology used in some other batteries (such a watch batteries).
Used batteries should not be placed with common household waste products. Contact local authorities
for the location of a chemical waste collection program nearest you.
NOTE: Regulations vary for different countries. Dispose of a used battery in accordance with local regulations.
