1-6 LIFEPAK CR Plus and LIFEPAK EXPRESS Defibrillator Operating Instructions
Introduction
Possible improper device performance.
Using other manufacturers’ cables or electrodes may cause the defibrillator to perform improperly and
invalidates the safety agency certification. Use only the parts and accessories specified in this manual.
Using damaged or expired equipment or accessories may cause the defibrillator to perform improperly
and may injure the victim or the user.
Safety risk and possible equipment damage.
Monitors, defibrillators, and their accessories (including electrodes and cables) contain ferromagnetic
materials. As with all ferromagnetic equipment, these products must not be used in the presence of the
high magnetic field created by a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) device. The high magnetic field
created by an MRI device will attract the equipment with a force sufficient to cause death or serious
personal injury to persons between the equipment and the MRI device. This magnetic attraction may
also damage the equipment. Skin burns will also occur due to heating of electrically conductive
materials, such as patient leads and pulse oximeter sensors. Consult the MRI manufacturer for more
information.
CAUTION!
Possible equipment damage.
This defibrillator may be damaged by mechanical or physical abuse, such as immersion in water or
dropping the defibrillator. If the defibrillator has been abused, remove it from use and contact a qualified
technician.
