automatically adjusted to the patient and provides compressions to the patient's chest in the region of the

before each use.
1.3.3 AutoPulse Power System
The AutoPulse Power System consists of a battery and battery charger:
• Battery: the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery (a Lithium-Ion battery), or the AutoPulse NiMH Battery (a
Nickel-Metal Hydride battery)
• Battery charger: the AutoPulse Multi-Chemistry Battery Charger (which charges both the
AutoPulse NiMH Battery and the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery)
Batteries: Both the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery and the AutoPulse NiMH Battery are proprietary,
rechargeable, removable batteries, and each is designed to supply power for AutoPulse operation. Both
Batteries are mechanically keyed to the AutoPulse Platform and to the AutoPulse Multi-Chemistry
Battery Charger to facilitate correct installation. One end of each Battery contains connections for power
and communication to the Charger and to the AutoPulse Platform. A Battery Status Check button
illuminates both Batteries’ status light-emitting diodes (LED’s).
