Cautions

• Do not disassemble the unit. A shock hazard exists. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.

• Use only commercially available type 123A lithium manganese dioxide batteries. Discard batteries

properly after removal from unit. Use only batteries from recommended manufacturers.

• If the device is stored outside the recommended environmental conditions, the electrode pads and/

or batteries may be damaged or their useful life reduced.

• Safety and effectiveness data submitted by ZOLL Medical Corporation to the Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) under section 510(K) of the Medical Device Act to obtain approval to

market are based upon the use of ZOLL accessories such as disposable electrodes. The use of

electrodes from sources other than ZOLL is not recommended. ZOLL makes no representations or

warranties regarding the performance or effectiveness of its products when used in conjunction

with electrodes from other sources. If unit failure is attributable to the use of accessories not

manufactured by ZOLL, this may void ZOLL's warranty.

• The CPR-D-padz electrode can be connected to other ZOLL Defibrillators with Multifunction

Cables. Defibrillation can be administered when connected to other ZOLL Defibrillators. CPR

monitoring will only work if the device is configured to work with CPR-D-padz.

Intended Users of the Device

compressions at the AHA recommended rate of 100 compressions per minute. Voice and visual prompts

encourage a minimum compression depth of 2 inches for adult patients. The CPR monitoring function

is not intended for use on patients under 8 years of age.
