Installation and Setup
Installation
A-2
To ensure full battery capacity, charge the battery for 24 hours following its
installation in the defibrillator.
The defibrillator operates from either battery or AC power.
Use only HP battery assembly M1758A.
To avoid the possibility of hazardous electrical shock, unplug the
instrument from the AC power source before installing or
replacing the battery.
If the defibrillator will be stored for longer than one month without AC power, first
charge the battery for 48 hours, then remove the battery from the unit. Note on the
instrument that the battery has been removed. Store the battery in a cool, dry
location. Recharge a stored battery for at least 24 hours every six months. This will
ensure that the battery does not completely discharge while in storage. The battery's
shelf life is longer with cooler temperatures, but the battery must not be stored
below freezing. After an extended storage period, the battery should be tested using
the “Battery Capacity Check” (page 8-4).
