Device self-test
6 Device self-test
6.1 Self-test after switching on the HeartSave PAD
The self-test is triggered by switching on the PRIMEDIC™ HeartSave PAD or by
inserting the battery in the device. The HeartSave PAD runs a device self-test to check
all the important parameters and signal mechanisms.
If the power module has been changed and if the device had previously found a fault,
then the full self-test (FULL) is automatically triggered. Please proceed to follow the
device instructions.
6.2 Automatic, periodic self-tests
The Primedic HeartSave PAD automatically carries out self-tests to ensure that it is
ready to use.
