4.4 Performing CPR
The equipment enters the CPR status in the following conditions.
■ Non-shockable rhythm is detected with a prompt “ No shock advised
”.
■ After a shock delivered and heart rhythm analysis pauses.
CPR status continues for 2 minutes.
WARNING
•
Performing CPR with the electrode pads attached on the patient might damage the electrode pads.
In this case, replace the electrode pads.
4.4.1 Using the CPR Metronome
The equipment provides a CPR metronome feature that can be used to encourage rescuers to perform chest
compression and ventilation at AHA/ERC recommended rate.
WARNING
•
The CPR metronome sounds do not indicate information regarding the patient’s condition. Because
patient status can change in a short time, the patient should be assessed at all times. Do not perform
CPR on a patient who is responsive or is breathing normally.
4.4.2 Using the CPR Sensor
The equipment provides voice instructions about real-time compression feedbacks if it is connected with a CPR
sensor.

The CPR sensor is not available in the markets of UK, Germany and France.
To connect the CPR sensor, follow this procedure.
1. Hold one end of the CPR sensor cable, and plug it into the CPR sensor connector.
2. Fasten the CPR sensor cable with the cable retainer.
3. Try to pull the CPR sensor cable to make sure that the cable is securely connected.
8 Perform CPR
Perform CPR according to the prompts.
• If the CPR time expires, repeat Step 6.
• If the patient is conscious and breathing
normally, wait for emergency medical services
to arrive.
