Caring for your Defibrillator
Frequently asked questions when purchasing a Defibrillator:
Do the Pads and Batteries need replacing?
Yes, even if they have not been used. Typically they have a shelf life of 2-5 years but each model is different so please check the manual.
Are the Pads reusable?
No, they must be replaced when they have been used.
How do I know if the defibrillator has a problem?
Defibrillators with self checks do this daily, weekly or monthly. They will let you know if there is a problem for example a low battery. They also do a self check before they are used.
However the user must keep an eye out for expiry dates on pads and batteries.
Does my Defibrillator have a shelf life?
Defibrillators have a warranty of 8 years, following this any parts that need changing are not covered under the warranty.
General Maintenance
Whilst your defibrillator doesn't need cleaning it is good to ensure that it is dust free.
