Troubleshooting Procedures

In the event of a user advisory, fault or system error, the User Control Panel Alert light-emitting diode 
(LED) illuminates (refer to Section 1.4, “User Controls and Indicators”). Consider the information in this 
chapter.

5.1

Troubleshooting Batteries

If a Battery’s charge falls too low, a Low Battery warning will appear on the Control Panel Display. The 
Low Battery warning display will be accompanied with an audio warning of four rapid beeps which will 
be followed by two beeps every 30 seconds until the battery is replaced or depleted. If operation 
continues without changing the Battery, a Replace Battery screen will appear (see Figure 5-1 and Figure 
5-2). If this is the case:

Press the On/Off button to power down the Platform.

Replace the Battery with a new, fully-charged Battery. Press the On/Off button followed by the 
Start/Continue button again.

Figure 5-1

Low Battery Warning

Warning:

If a persistent fault or system error occurs during active operation, immediately revert to 
manual CPR.
