CAUTION. Use only Cardiac Science approved
equipment
Using batteries, pads, cables, or optional equipment other than
those approved by Cardiac Science may cause the AED to func-
tion improperly during a rescue; therefore Cardiac Science does
not endorse their use. The use of non-approved accessories,
if proved to contribute to a device malfunction, shall void any
and all support from Cardiac Science.
!
CAUTION. Possible improper AED performance
Using pads that are damaged or expired may result in improper
AED performance.
!
CAUTION. Moving the patient during a rescue
During a rescue attempt, excessive jostling or moving of the
patient may cause AEDs to improperly analyze the patient’s
cardiac rhythm. Stop all motion or vibration before attempting
a rescue.
