CAUTION
M3500B/M5500B Service Manual
Repair Philosophy
Defibrillator/Monitor
The repair philosophy of the M3500B/M5500B is subassembly replacement.
Examples of subassemblies are the printer, the Control Printed Circuit Assem-
bly (PCA), and selected connectors and other items. Repairs that involve
replacing components on a PCA are not supported.
Individual component replacement should not be attempted outside of a fac-
tory authorized repair facility. Component level repair is extremely difficult
due to the extensive use of surface mount technology and the high parts-den-
sity on the circuit boards. Unauthorized component replacement can impair
performance of the M3500B/M5500B.
Batteries, Power Modules, Battery Charger Adapter
The repair philosophy for the SLA battery (M3516A/M5516A), AC Power
Module (M3517A/M5517A), DC Power Module (M3518A/M5518A), and
the Battery Charger Adapter (M3506A/M5506A) is unit replacement. These
accessories are not repaired in the field.
