Do not leave the HeartStart without a set
of pads connected; the device will start
chirping and the i-button will start flashing.
The HeartStart runs daily self-tests. As long
as the green Ready light is blinking, it is
NOT necessary to test the defibrillator by
initiating a battery insertion self- test. This
uses battery power and risks draining the
battery prematurely.

Even when CPR is applied correctly, the
patient’s chest may become bruised or ribs
may be fractured. Performing CPR
incorrectly could cause additional injuries
to a patient, or may not provide needed
benefit to the patient. Be sure to follow the
CPR Coaching instructions provided by the
HeartStart. Be sure to turn on CPR
coaching if you are unsure of your CPR
skills.
