The AED Pro has a comprehensive self-test system that automatically tests the electronics, battery, pads, and high
voltage circuitry. Self-tests are also activated every time you open and close the AED Pro lid.
When performing the self-tests, the AED Pro completes the following steps automatically.
•
Turns itself ON, and the STATUS INDICATOR changes to RED.
•
Performs the self-test.
•
If successful, the STATUS INDICATOR reverts to GREEN.
•
Turns itself OFF if the lid is closed.
There are three types of automatic self-tests. The Daily Self-Test checks the battery, pads, and the electronic
components. The Weekly Self-Test completes a partial charge of the high voltage electronics current in addition to the
items tested in the Daily Self-Test. During the Monthly Self-Test, the high voltage electronics are charged to full energy.
Self-tests will be initiated upon opening the lid and again upon closing the lid. If the self-test detects an error, the STATUS
INDICATOR will remain RED. Upon closing the lid, an audible alert will be issued. The Diagnostic Panel under the lid will
indicate the source of the problem according to the Indicator Troubleshooting Guide Table on the next page.
