Once the unit is charged to the selected energy, the SHOCK button illuminates and the PRESS
SHOCK message is displayed. Simultaneously, the monitor displays the energy level to which
the defibrillator is charged, DEFIB XXXJ READY.
Note: Rhythm analysis does not continue after the defibrillator is charged and ready once a
decision to shock has been made. The R Series unit will not automatically disarm the
defibrillator if the patient’s rhythm reverts to a non-shockable rhythm before the shock
has been delivered.
A continuous tone sounds for 50 seconds, followed by an intermittent beeping for 10
seconds.You must deliver the shock within this 60 second interval, or the defibrillator will
disarm itself.
Note: This interval is user configurable and can be set to either 60 or 120 seconds.
Press and hold the illuminated SHOCK button on the front panel until energy is delivered to
the patient. An XXXJ DELIVERED message appears on the display for approximately 5
seconds.
Watch the patient or ECG response to verify that the shock has been delivered.
After the energy has been delivered to the patient, the display returns to DEFIB XXX J SEL.
