Ventilator
• The ZOLL Ventilator can operate from its internal battery or from an external power source.
When using an external power source, position the supply cables to avoid accidental

equipment. It may be necessary to take mitigation measures, such as re-orienting or
relocating of the device or shielding the location.
• Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or dimmer.
• The protection against defibrillator depends on the use of accessories (including pulse

• Grounding:
• Do not under any circumstances remove the grounding conductor from the power
plug.
• Do not use extension cords or adapters of any type. The power cord and plug must

external power cables to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
