ZOLL R Series Operator's Guide

CHAPTER 1GENERAL INFORMATION

Cautions
If the unit is to be stored longer than 90 days, remove the battery pack.
Do not sterilize the defibrillator, or its accessories unless the accessories are labelled as
sterilizable.
Do not immerse any part of the defibrillator in water.
Do not use ketones (such as acetone or MEK) on the defibrillator.
Avoid using abrasives (including paper towels) on the display window.
Grounding reliability can be achieved only when the equipment is connected to a receptacle
marked “HOSPITAL ONLY,” “HOSPITAL GRADE,” or equivalent. If the grounding integrity
of the line cord or AC receptacle is questionable, operate the defibrillator using battery power
only.
To protect the unit from damage during defibrillation, for accurate ECG information, and to
protect against noise and other interference, use only internal current-limiting ECG cables
specified or supplied by ZOLL.
For continued safety and EMI performance, use only the line cord supplied by ZOLL.
Dispose of battery packs in accordance with national, regional and local regulations. Battery
packs should be shipped to a reclamation facility for recovery of metal and plastic compounds
as the proper method of waste management.
Restarting the Defibrillator
Certain events require the R Series products to be restarted after they shut off or become
inoperative (for example, when the battery runs down and the unit shuts off).
In such a case, always try to restore defibrillator operation as follows:
1. Turn the Mode Selector to OFF.
2. If necessary, replace a depleted battery with a fully charged pack, or connect the defibrillator
to AC mains.
3. Turn the Mode Selector to the desired operating mode to restart the unit.
This sequence is necessary to restart the defibrillator and can also be used to clear some fault
messages when immediate use of the defibrillator is required.
If restarted after a shutdown period of 10 seconds or more, the unit restores all settings (such as
ECG lead, ECG size, and alarm state and limits) to their power-up default values. After
restoring device operation, you might need to reinstate previously selected, non-default
settings.
