Initial System Start Up and Shut Down

Before the T5 can be used for the first time, the battery
must be fully charged. Locate the cart’s power cord
and plug it into a hospital grade wall receptacle. Upon
doing so, the cart will awaken and go into a charging
mode. When charging is complete, the cart will emit
one long beep, and two orange and two green BLI lights
will illuminate and remain lit. Once the power cord is
unplugged, the cart will go into discharge mode. The cart
is now ready to use.

Proper Power System Recharging

To prolong the T5’s power system, always fully charge
the battery. This will condition the battery for optimal
performance. To recharge the T5, simply plug the power
cord into a hospital grade receptacle. The cart has started
its charging cycle once the BLI lights blink sequentially
from left to right. When the cart is finished charging, it
will emit one long beep and two orange and two green
lights will illuminate and remain lit. The BLI lights will
remain lit until the cart is unplugged.

Battery Level Indicator (BLI)

The Battery Level Indicator (BLI) indicates the status of the T5’s power system. Several modes are

displayed through the BLI:

S

leep Mode: All of the T5’s BLI lights will be off.

Char

ging Mode: The BLI lights will sequentially illuminate from left to right.

Ch

arging Finished Mode: When charging is complete, the cart will emit one long beep, and two

orange and two green BLI lights will illuminate and remain lit. The BLI lights will remain lit until the cart
is unplugged.

Batt

ery Fault Mode: All five of the BLI lights will flash in this mode. Please contact Humanscale at

1-800-400-0625 for servicing information.

Disch

arge Mode: When the battery is discharging, the BLI will display how much battery life is

left. At full battery capacity, the LED farthest right will stay illuminated. As the T5’s battery charge
decreases, the BLI lights will illuminate one by one, from right to left, progressing all the way

to the red light. Once the cart reaches a low battery level, the red light will be illuminated and three

short beeps will be heard every 30 seconds. When the cart reaches a dangerously low battery level,
the red light will flash and one long beep will emit every five seconds. A constant beep will indicate
the last minute of operation.
