Powerheart® AED G3 Elite 9790A and 9790E
Caution: Temperature Extremes
Exposing the AED to extreme environmental conditions outside of its
operating parameters may compromise the ability of the AED to
function properly. The Rescue Ready® daily self-test verifies the
impact of extreme environmental conditions on the AED. If the daily
self-test determines environmental conditions outside of the AED’s
operating parameters, the Rescue Ready indicator could change to
red (not Rescue Ready) and the AED may issue a “SERVICE REQUIRED”
alert to prompt the user to move the AED to environmental
conditions within the acceptable operating parameters at once. See
Chapter 6,
Technical Data
, for acceptable environmental conditions
and
Rescue Ready status indicator
on page 3-2 for information about
the Rescue Ready indicator.
Caution: Not Rescue Ready
Issues other than extreme environmental conditions can cause the
AED to become not Rescue Ready. For more information, see Rescue
Ready status indicator on page 3-2.
Scheduled maintenance
Note:
Powerheart® G3 AEDs perform weekly partial energy and
monthly full energy charges of the high voltage circuitry as part
of their extensive self testing regimens. Consequently, Cardiac
Science does not recommend that users perform any additional
energy tests.
Perform the following tests per the schedule indicated:
Daily maintenance
Check the Status Indicator to ensure that it is GREEN. When the
indicator is GREEN, the AED is ready for a rescue. If the indicator is
RED, refer to the troubleshooting table on page 5-3.
Monthly maintenance
Perform the following procedure each month (28 days):
1.
Open the AED lid.
2.
Wait for the AED to indicate status. Observe the STATUS
INDICATOR change from GREEN to RED during its power
up self-test. After approximately 5 seconds, verify that the
STATUS INDICATOR returns to GREEN.
