Defibtech RMU-2000 Manual page 16

CAUTIONS (continued)
• Follow all Battery Pack labeling instructions. Do not use a Battery Pack after its expiration date.
• Only use Defibtech-approved accessories with the RMU-2000 ACC. The Battery Pack,
Battery Charger, and external power adapter are specifically designed for use with the
RMU-2000 ACC. Using other accessories can cause permanent damage and void the
warranty.
• The RMU-2000 ACC must be paused in order to replace a Battery Pack. Failure to do so
will require the user to power up the RMU-2000 ACC and reset the start position in order
to resume compressions.
• The Battery Pack must always be installed to operate the RMU-2000 ACC from external
power. Without the Battery Pack, the RMU-2000 ACC will flash the warning indicator and
will not perform compressions.
• The mains power quality must be that of a typical commercial or hospital environment or
transportation vehicle.
• Make sure other equipment and/or drugs are applicable for use with the RMU-2000 ACC.
Consult the equipment's operating instructions.
• If the RMU-2000 ACC becomes hot, prolonged contact with the patient's skin could result
in skin burns. If necessary, remove the patient's arms from the Patient Wrist Straps.
• Do not allow the use of Stabilization Strap to delay or prevent other treatment of the
patient. Apply strap as soon as possible after beginning compressions and always before
patient movement.
• Recycle or dispose of lithium-ion batteries in accordance with local, state, provincial, and/
or national regulations. To avoid fire and explosion hazard, do not burn or incinerate the
Battery Pack. Do not crush.
• Use and store the RMU-2000 ACC only within the range of environmental conditions
specified in the technical specifications.
• The RMU-2000 ACC should not be used in aircraft environments.
• Always store the RMU-2000 ACC so it is ready for use. Store the Compression Module
with a fully-charged Battery Pack installed and a Suction Cup attached to the Frame. It
is recommended to maintain a charged spare Battery Pack and have the external power
adapter available with the unit at all times.
• Although the RMU-2000 ACC is designed for a wide variety of field use conditions, rough
handling beyond specifications may result in damage to the unit.
• Federal Law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
