Following successful completion of all self tests, the status indicator displays a
green check (
)
to show that all tests passed and that the AED is ready to use.
If the status indicator is blank following completion of any self test, the
ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator is not ready for use and may be defective. Remove the
AED from service and consult the section, “Chapter 4 Troubleshooting” on
page 29, to help determine the problem.
