LIFEPAK 500 automated external defibrillator Modes of Operation
5-10
Auto Test Modes Page 2 of 4
Auto Tests The AED periodically performs Daily Auto Tests and Extended Auto Tests.
If the AED detects a problem during an auto test that requires service but does
not prevent AED use, the AED displays the service indicator and, some biphasic
devices, the Readiness Display will have the service wrench displayed since the
fault first appeared in the unit.
If the AED detects a problem during an auto test that requires immediate
service, the service indicator flashes and the AED activates an intermittent
audible alarm, except in biphasic units that contain the Readiness Display.
Note: It is important to store the AED at the operating temperature range of
0°–50°C (32°–122°F) when the battery is installed. If the ambient temperature is
outside of this range, the Auto Test may erroneously detect and report a
problem.
