Troubleshooting
Self-tests
The AED has a comprehensive self-test system that automatically assesses the electronics, battery
state, defibrillation pads, and high voltage circuitry.
The AED runs automatic self tests at regular time intervals:
◆ The daily self test checks the battery, pads, and the electronic components.
◆ The weekly self test completes a partial charge of the high voltage electronics circuitry in
addition to the items tested in the daily self test.
◆
The monthly self test charges the high voltage electronics to full energy in addition to the items
tested in the weekly self-test.
Note: If the AED’s lid is opened during one of these periodic self tests, testing stops.
A subset of the self tests is also run each time the lid of the AED is closed.
When performing a self test, the AED:
1.
Turns the Rescue Ready indicator red.
2.
Automatically performs the appropriate self test.
3.
Shows the Rescue Ready status.
•
If the test is successful, the Rescue Ready status is green.
•
If the AED detects an error, the Rescue Ready indicator remains red. A beep sounds every
30 seconds.
Note: When the lid of the AED is opened, one or more indicators on the AED’s display panel may
remain lit and service messages may appear on the display. To troubleshoot these conditions, see
the sections in this chapter.
