Note: If “No shock advised”, the AED will move to step 8 which demonstrate CPR
progress directly.
Note: The AED performs the Step 6 directly when it is turned on after the rescuer
attaches the pads to the patient properly. Also, the Step 6 would be started if the
pads are attached to the patient even if the AED is under the Step 1 to 5. This can
reduce the preparing time for electric shock in case of trained rescuer.
Note: Follow voice prompt. Do not touch patient or allow any others to touch the patient
while the AED is analyzing. After completion of analysis the AED will advise you of
treatment recommended. Care must be taken to keep the patient still. A moving
patient can lead to incorrect, delayed or less effective diagnosis and therapy.
