How to Determine if your SureSight Battery is still Good
According to Welch Allyn use the following procedure to determine if your battery is good:
1. Put the SureSight in the charger and plug in. If you see yellow lights on the screener it is receiving a charge.
2. Charge the battery for a full 12 hour period.
3. After the charge keep the screener "working" for a full 20 minutes. This means you must immediately turn the screener back on every time
it "times out". Continue doing this for the full 20 minutes.
4. If the screener comes on after the 20 minutes is over the battery is fine.
SureSight Amplifier
Having trouble hearing the sounds of the SureSight screener? KidSight has several amplifiers available that will amplify the sounds of the screener. The amplifier is simple to use. The amplifiers are also available at Radio Shack if you would like to purchase one. Please contact Holly Rutherford-Allen, KidSight Executive Director at 720-325-7078 for more information.
