Section 3: Setup
SmartGauge Battery Status Indicator
The SmartGauge “Battery Status” indicator has five (5) LEDs, four (4)
GREEN and one (1) RED. The top four GREEN LEDs display the
remaining capacity of the battery much like a fuel gauge. With use, the
GREEN LEDs gradually go out, from top to bottom, as battery capacity
decreases. When the green LEDs go completely out and the bottom RED
LED lights, replace the battery.
When the bottom Red LED initially lights, upon opening the lid or at any
time during a rescue, you will hear the “Battery Low” prompt once.
However, the Survivalink AED should still be capable of delivering
approximately 9 more defibrillation shocks.
When the Survivalink AED battery cannot deliver
any more shocks, it
continuously repeats the “Battery low” prompt. To continue the rescue,
leave the lid “Open” and replace the battery. You have 60 seconds to
install the battery. If 60 seconds expire or the lid is closed for more than
15 seconds during battery installation, the rescue sequence starts over.
If the battery is completely depleted of power, all Survivalink AED
electrical activity will terminate.
Electrodes Indicator
The “Electrodes” LED lights up when the electrodes are:
• Disconnected from the patient
• Not properly connected to the Survivalink AED
• Not within specifications (cold, dirty, damaged)
Service Indicator
The “Service” LED lights up when the Survivalink AED requires
maintenance that can only be performed by qualified service personnel.
Rescue/Resume Button
The Survivalink AED has one button called the “Rescue/Resume”
button; it is used for all operations. This button is located on the
diagnostic panel and serves two functions:
• Delivers a defibrillation shock (Rescue)
• Clears the internal memory of previous rescue data so that new
rescue data can be stored (Resume)
