• Therapy cannot be delivered while an AED software update is in process.
• Do not turn off the AED or remove the battery pack or the update data card until an AED software update process is
complete as these actions may render the AED incapable of delivering therapy. If any of these interruptions occur,
restart the update procedure from the beginning.
• While in demonstration mode, the AED cannot perform a rescue. If at any time during the demonstration there is a
need to perform a rescue, press and hold the green on/off button for two seconds to power off the AED. Then press
the green on/off button to power on the unit and begin a rescue protocol. The demonstration card does not need to
be removed in order to perform a rescue.
