Maintenance
The TrueCPR device and cable should be inspected regularly as part of your routine equipment
inspections. See the Operator’s Checklist on page 12 for instructions.
Battery Replacement
Use only Duracell DL123 batteries for reliable performance.
To replace the batteries, use a coin or similar tool to open the battery compartment door. Remove the old
batteries, wait 30 seconds, and then insert new batteries as shown in the diagram on the compartment
door. Close the compartment door securely.
Note:
If the battery readiness indicator does not flash after the batteries are replaced, perform the
following corrective actions.
•
Verify batteries are installed correctly.
•
Remove batteries, wait 30 seconds, and then re-install batteries.
•
Turn device on and look for low battery indicator on screen. If low battery indicator does not
appear, battery readiness indicator may be faulty. Contact Technical support or your local
Physio-Control representative for assistance.
Service and Repair
The TrueCPR device contains no serviceable parts. If the device does not function correctly, contact your
local Physio-Control representative for assistance.
Service Life
During product development, the TrueCPR coaching device is subjected to rigorous life testing. However,
both rapid technological changes and the availability of replacement parts limit the useful life of all
modern medical devices. The routine cleaning and inspection program recommended in this manual will
assist in reliable operation.
