Preparing the Welch Allyn AED 10 for Storage

After each use, any event documentation should be retrieved from the internal log and
printed. Any error messages or malfunctions should be reported and corrective actions
taken before storing the unit for reuse. Then, the Welch Allyn AED 10 should be
inspected, cleaned, used pads should be removed, and a new supply of electrode pads
restocked to prepare the unit for its next use. Do not open sealed pads bag until
immediately prior to use.
To remove the pads, pull the wire upward from the device.
Note
Note DO NOT REUSE PADS.
Store a new set of defibrillation pads in the carrying case electrode storage pocket –
located on the inside flap of the AED 10 carrying case. Spare pads can be stored in the
exterior pocket of the carrying case. Make sure the pad expiration date can be viewed
through the pad window of the carrying case. When preparing your device for storage/
deployment be sure that the status indicator is visible through the round window of the
carrying case.
During storage, the Welch Allyn AED 10 performs periodic self-tests including the
functionality of the unit and the status of the battery and internal circuitry. A periodic
inspection of your device should be performed on a weekly or monthly basis. See
"Maintenance" on page 53 for more information.
