Self-Tests
The AED has a comprehensive self-test system that automatically tests the
electronics, battery, pads, and high voltage circuitry. Self-tests are also
activated every time you open and close the AED lid.
When performing the self-tests, the AED completes the following steps
automatically:
1
Turns itself ON, and the Status Indicator changes to RED.
2
Performs the self-test.
3
If successful, the Status Indicator reverts to GREEN.
4
Turns itself OFF if the lid is closed.
There are three types of automatic self-tests:
◆ The Daily Self-test checks the battery, pads, and the electronic
components.
◆ The Weekly Self-test completes a partial charge of the high voltage
electronics current in addition to the items tested in the Daily Self-test.
◆ During the Monthly Self-test, the high voltage electronics are charged to
full energy.
