electrodes and adapter units 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 pacing/
defibrillation electrodes and adapter units from other sources. If unit failure is attributable to pacing/defibrillation
electrodes or adapter units not manufactured by ZOLL, this may void ZOLL's warranty.
Only qualified personnel should disassemble the M Series unit.
WARNING! This unit can generate up to 4500 volts with sufficient current to cause lethal shocks.
All persons near the equipment must be warned to “STAND CLEAR” prior to discharging the defibrillator.
Do not discharge the unit’s internal energy more than three times in one minute or damage to the unit may result.
Do not discharge a battery pack except in a Base PowerCharger 4x4 or compatible ZOLL Battery Charging/Testing unit.
Do not use the M Series in the presence of flammable agents (such as gasoline), oxygen-rich atmospheres, or
flammable anesthetics. Using the unit near the site of a gasoline spill may cause an explosion.
Do not use the unit near or within puddles of water.
NOTE The M Series is protected against interference from radio frequency emissions typical of two-way radios and cellular
phones (digital and analog) used in emergency service/public safety activities. Users of the M Series should assess the
unit’s performance in their typical environment of use for the possibility of radio frequency interference from
high-power sources. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may be observed as shifts in monitor baseline, trace
compression, or transient spikes on the display.
