SMARTGAUGE™ BATTERY STATUS INDICATOR
The SmartGauge Battery Status Indicator has five (5) LEDs, four (4) green and one (1)
red. The right four green LEDs display the remaining capacity of the battery much like a
fuel gauge. With use, the green LEDs gradually go out, from right to left, as battery
0% 100%
capacity decreases. When the green LEDs go out and the red LED lights up, replace the
battery.
Note: When the red LED initially lights up – upon lid opening or at any time during a rescue – a
"Battery Low" prompt will be issued at once. However, the AED is capable of delivering at least 9
more defibrillation shocks after the first "Battery Low" prompt is issued.
When the AED battery cannot deliver any more shocks, it continuously repeats the "Battery Low" voice
prompt. To continue the rescue, leave the lid open, remove the battery, and replace with a fresh battery. If
battery replacement takes longer than 60 seconds, the first rescue will be terminated and a second rescue
will begin upon opening the lid.
PADS INDICATOR
The PADS LED lights up when the pads are:
• Not properly connected to the AED
•
Not within operational specifications (cold, dried, damaged).
• Disconnected from the patient during a rescue.
SERVICE INDICATOR
The SERVICE LED lights up when the AED requires maintenance that can only be
performed by qualified service personnel.
SHOCK/CONTINUE BUTTON
•
The AED has one button called the SHOCK/CONTINUE button. This button is
located on the diagnostic panel.
SHOCK INDICATOR
The word SHOCK and the shock button indicator LED will illuminate red when the AED is
ready to deliver a defibrillation shock to the patient.
