HEARTSTART FRx 861304 OWNER’S MANUAL
4 After using the HeartStart FRx
After each use
1. Check the outside of the FRx for signs of damage, dirt, or
contamination. If you see signs of damage, contact Philips for
technical support. If the defibrillator is dirty or contaminated,
clean it according to the guidelines in Chapter 5, “Maintaining the
HeartStart FRx.”
2. Plug the cable connector for a new set of SMART Pads II into the
FRx (do not open the pads case). Check supplies and accessories
for damage and expiration dates. Replace any used, damaged or
expired items. For directions on changing the pads and replacing
the battery, please see Chapter 2, “Setting Up the HeartStart
FRx.” The single-use pads must be replaced after being used.
3. Unless your protocol requires that the battery remain installed,
remove the battery for five seconds, then reinstall it to run the
battery insertion self-test to check the operation of the
defibrillator.
*
When the test is complete, check that the green
Ready light is blinking.
4. Return the FRx to its storage location so it will be ready for use
when needed.
* If you leave the battery in the FRx after using the defibrillator, then transfer the
last-use data to a computer running HeartStart Event Review software, the
software will calculate the local date and time of the device use. However, if you
remove the battery prior to transferring the data, the software will only show
elapsed time.
