HEARTSTART M5066A

3. Insert the cartridge into the cartridge well on the front of the defibrillator. It

should click into place when properly seated. The green PULL handle should

be all the way down.

NOTE: To prevent the pads’ adhesive gel from drying out, do not open the hard

cover or film seal of the cartridge until you need to use the pads.

4. Remove the battery from its packaging. Install it in the batter y compartment

on the back of the defibrillator.

5. The HeartStart will automati cally run a self-test when the battery is inserted.

Press the Shock button when instructed. When the self-test is over, the

defibrillator will report the result, and tell you to push the green On/Off

button in case of an emergency. (Do not push the green button unless this is an

actual emergency.) Then the defibrillator will turn off and go to standby mo de.

The green Ready light will be blinking to s how the HeartStart is ready

for use.*

NOTE: Always store the HeartStart with a pads cartridge and a battery installed,

so it will be ready to use and can perform daily self-tests.

* As long as a battery is installed, turning the HeartStart “off” puts it into standby mode,

which means that it is ready for use.
