The Restore Neurostimulation System is intended to provide electrical stimulation to relieve severe, intractable pain. Restore Neurostimulation System indications, contraindications, risks and benefits, warnings, precautions, and individualization of treatment information is located in the Model 37742 Patient Programmer: Pain Therapy User Manual. Warnings DO NOT use the recharger on an unhealed wound. The recharger, antenna, and belt are not sterile, and contact with the wound can cause an infection.

Do not use the AC power supply near water or during a lightning storm. Electric shock, serious injury, or death may result. Precautions
Charge the neurostimulator when you see a low battery (
) screen on the patient programmer or recharger; this prevents the battery from overdischarging (see glossary). If the neurostimulator battery is allowed to overdischarge, charging is not possible; however, the clinician may be able to restore the battery function. Allowing the neurostimulator battery to overdischarge will permanently affect the neurostimulator in one of the following ways:
Battery function is restored; however, charging sessions may be more frequent because battery capacity has been reduced. Battery function is not restored, and the neurostimulator must be surgically 1 n o i t c u d o r t n I 37751 03/2005 English 11 A08366001 Rev X Printing instructions:

The neurostimulator battery is permanently damaged.
The neurostimulator battery has been overdischarged and restored twice before. The third time the battery is overdischarged, the neurostimulator will reach end of service. Surgery is required to replace the neurostimulator.
Do not expose the recharger or antenna to extremely hot [eg, hot cars, saunas, or direct sunlight; +40C (104F)] or cold
[eg, walk-in freezers; 20C (4F)]
environments. The recharger and antenna are sensitive to temperature extremes and can become damaged.
Use only the Medtronic neurological charging system components to charge your recharger. Use of non-Medtronic English 37751 03/2005 1 n o i t c u d o r t n I 12 A08366001 Rev X Printing instructions:

When operating a charging system, use special care near flammable or explosive atmospheres. An interaction between the flammable or explosive atmospheres and the battery in the device could occur. The consequences of using a battery-
powered device near flammable or explosive atmospheres are unknown. How to use this manual This manual is designed to help you understand your charging system. Ask your clinician to explain anything that is unclear.
Chapter 1, Introduction, describes the recharger keys and screens and how the system works.
Chapter 2, Using your charging system, describes the recharger and how to perform specific tasks. 1 n o i t c u d o r t n I 37751 03/2005 English 13 A08366001 Rev X Printing instructions:

The power cord plugs into an electrical outlet and connects the AC power supply to the recharger. The power supply is a universal component. Note: Use only the power supply provided by Medtronic with your charging system. Antenna: The antenna connects to the recharger to establish communication with your neurostimulator. You can adjust a dial on the antenna to improve the charging efficiency between the recharger and the neurostimulator. Belt: The belt allows you to keep the antenna directly over your neurostimulator during a charging session. Pouch: The recharger fits into a pouch that can be attached to the belt so you can maintain your normal activities during a charging session.

How your charging system works The charging system is used to charge your implanted neurostimulator battery. The battery in your recharger is similar to the rechargeable batteries commonly found in electronic devices. The battery typically lasts for approximately 5 years, depending upon your therapy needs and how often you use your recharger. Rechargeable batteries lose some of their power every day, even when not used. Charging sessions restore power to the recharger battery. Caution:
Charge the neurostimulator when you see a low battery (

Ensure you charge the batteries in your recharger and neurostimulator before they are low. Recharger
As your recharger ages, you will need to charge the battery more often.
The recharger battery might have run low since it was manufactured and shipped. You might need to charge it before you use it the first time. 2 i m e t s y s g n g r a h c r u o y g n s U i 37751 03/2005 English 27 A08366001 Rev X Printing instructions:

Your ability to locate your neurostimulator and the depth of the neurostimulator determine the efficiency of the charging session. With practice, you will find the best location on your skin for placing your recharger and antenna. If your neurostimulator is on while you are charging the battery, your charging session might last longer.
Depending on your therapy needs, charging your neurostimulator could take from one hour to more than 12 hours per week.
You can partially charge your neurostimulator if you do not have enough time for a complete charging session.
You can charge your neurostimulator at any time; you do not have to wait for a low battery message. 2 i m e t s y s g n g r a h c r u o y g n s U i 28 English 37751 03/2005 A08366001 Rev X Printing instructions:

Do not place the antenna or belt over bulky clothing or bandages.
The antenna may be placed directly on your skin. However, if the antenna irritates your skin, you might want to wear a thin undergarment to protect your skin. 2. Put on your belt, with the template centered over your neurostimulator
