Safety alert descriptions
WARNING! Possible Radio Frequency (RF) Susceptibility.
RF susceptibility from cellular phones, CB radios, FM 2-way radios and
other wireless devices may cause incorrect rhythm recognition and
subsequent shock advisory. When attempting a rescue using the AED,
do not operate wireless radiotelephones within 1 meter of the AED –
turn power OFF to the radiotelephone and other like equipment near
the incident.
WARNING! Possible Interference with Implanted Pacemaker.
Therapy should not be delayed for patients with implanted
pacemakers and a defibrillation attempt should be made if the
patient is unconscious and not breathing. The AED has pacemaker
detection and rejection, however with some pacemakers the AED
may not advise a defibrillation shock. (Cummins, R., ed., Advanced
