4 ZOLL AED 3 Operator’s Manual
• Use the ZOLL AED 3 CPR Uni-padz
TM
defibrillation pads for both
adult and child victims. The ZOLL AED 3 CPR Uni-padz defibrillation
pads may be used on children less than 8 years old or weighing less
than 55 lbs (25 kg) when the Child Selection button has been
pressed.
• The ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator is capable of delivering 200 joules. If
necessary, the defibrillator can be completely deactivated by
turning it off and removing the battery pack.
• For safety, the semi-automatic version of the ZOLL AED 3
defibrillator automatically disarms a fully charged unit after 30
seconds if the Shock button is not pressed.
• Always stand clear of the victim when delivering a shock.
Defibrillation energy delivered to the victim may be conducted
through the victim’s body and cause a lethal shock to those
touching the victim.
• DO NOT TOUCH the defibrillation pad surfaces, the victim, or any
conductive material touching the victim during ECG analysis or
defibrillation.
• Move the victim away from electrically conductive surfaces prior to
use of equipment.
• DO NOT use the ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator near or within puddles of
water.
• Keep the victim as motionless as possible during ECG analysis.
• DO NOT use the ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator near flammable agents,
such as gasoline, oxygen-rich atmospheres or flammable
anesthetics.
• MR Unsafe - Keep the ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator away from magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) equipment.
• Turn off cell phones and two-way radios to avoid radio frequency
interference from high-power sources that might cause the
defibrillator to interpret cardiac rhythms incorrectly.
