LIFEPAK 500 automated external defibrillator Modes of Operation
5-11
Auto Test Modes Page 3 of 4
Daily Auto Test Every day at 0300 (3:00 a.m.) the AED automatically performs the following
functions:
■ Turns itself on
■ Performs the extended self-test
■ Stores the results of the self-test in the Test Log
■ Turns itself off
If the AED is already on at 0300, the Daily Auto Test will not be performed. If you
turn on the AED while the Daily Auto Test is in progress, the test will be
terminated and the AED will function normally.
WARNING! (LIFEPAK 500 Monophasic AED with
Operating System Software Version 4.0)
Possible loss of power during patient care. Do not leave an external test
load or patient simulator connected to the AED when not in use. The AED
enters Normal Mode instead of performing a Daily Auto Test if it is
connected to a patient, an external test load, or a patient simulator at the
time of test initialization. The AED will remain on and continue to drain the
battery until it is turned off or until the battery is depleted.
