ZOLL AED 3 Operator’s Manual 19
Maintaining the ZOLL AED 3
Defibrillator
Overview
The ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator requires little maintenance. It automatically
performs a self test every time you turn on the AED or install a battery,
and it also performs a routine self test based on the interval of days that
you specify (default is 7 days). The defibrillator collects the self test
information in its device history, and performs the following self tests:
• Battery Installation Self Test
• Power On Self Test
• Manual Self Test
•Automatic Self Test
• Automatic Monthly Self Test
This section contains procedures on how to maintain the defibrillator as
well as some general information about the self tests. There is also a
table containing the most common errors and how to fix them. See the
ZOLL AED 3 Administrator’s Guide for additional maintenance
information (intended for qualified technical professionals).
After Each Use
Perform the following steps after each time the AED is used.
1. Check that the AED is clean, undamaged, and free of excessive
wear. If the AED needs to be cleaned, see “Cleaning the ZOLL
AED 3 Defibrillator” on page 20.
