72 Troubleshooting Welch Allyn AED 10 Automated External DefibrillatorFrequently Asked QuestionsWill the Welch Allyn AED 10 function correctly if I have reversed the placementof the defibrillation pads when I placed them on the patient’s chest?Yes. The Welch Allyn AED 10’s ability to analyze the rhythm and to deliver shocksis independent of the polarity of the defibrillation pads. (See “Apply defibrillationpads to the patient’s bare chest and connect cable” on page 29.)Do I select the energy level with successive shocks?No. The energy level is preset when operating the Welch Allyn AED 10 inAutomated Mode.What do I do if a shock is advised while I am transporting a patient?Avoid shocking a patient during transport; movement may interfere with theaccuracy of the rhythm analysis. Stop the transport if possible and allow theWelch Allyn AED 10 to reconfirm the shockable condition.How can I tell the status of the battery?Refer to “System status indicator” on page 21 for battery capacityspecifications. When the unit is in storage, battery capacity will diminish overtime. The Welch Allyn AED 10 continuously monitors and reports batterycapacity while in storage. The flashing low battery status indicator means thatthe battery is beginning to weaken and should be replaced at the firstopportunity.What do I do if I need to use the defibrillator and I have a flashing low batterystatus indicator?The flashing low battery status indicator means that the battery is beginning toweaken and should be replaced at the first opportunity.

The AED 10 remainsoperable when the flashing low battery is activated, and it can be used on apatient in this condition or continued in use when connected to a patient if thelow battery indicator activates. Replace the battery as soon as possible.What do I do if the flashing low battery status indicator comes on at lowtemperatures?If the AED 10 is subjected to cold temperatures near or outside of its lowtemperature operating limit of 32° F (0° C), the low battery status indicator maybe triggered even with a new battery. The low battery indicator caused by coldtemperature may cease when the device is warmed. Discharging the device todefibrillate a patient may cause sufficient warming to eliminate the low batteryindicator or cause it to be intermittent.
