CONNECTING TO POWER
The RESCUE LIFE defibrillator/monitor operates on AC (line) power or with internal
rechargeable battery.
You can switch from battery to AC power or AC power to battery while the device is on and in
use by plugging in or unplugging the AC power cord.
AC Operation
The AC Mains LED illuminates, when the RESCUE LIFE defibrillator/monitor operates on AC
power. When the defibrillator is not in use, maintain better the battery charge connecting the
power cord to an AC outlet and turn off the defibrillator.
Battery Operation
The defibrillator automatically switches to battery power when the power cord is
disconnected from an AC outlet or from the defibrillator. The internal nickel-metal hydride
battery is rechargeable and intended to be used for standby
operation.
A new, completely charged battery provides approximately 100 shocks at 230J-discharges, 70
minutes of pacing, or approximately 180 minutes of continuous monitoring before the
defibrillator turns off.
Connect instantly the power cord into an AC outlet to continue use and start recharging the
battery, when the LOW BATTERY message appears on the screen.
If low battery messages often appear, the battery may need to be replaced.
Please contact PROGETTI Technical Service or qualified service personnel for assistance.
Partially depleted batteries recharge for a time period that corresponds to the time the
defibrillator was in use. For example, if the device was used one hour, the required recharge
time will be around one hour.
In order to improve the monitoring performance we suggest to connect the defibrillator to AC
power after each use to recharge the battery.
Normally, new fully depleted batteries recharge for 3 hours to regain full capacity.
