that if adjacent to or stacked use is necessary, the AED7000 should be observed to verify normal
operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
2.2.6 Attention
Electric and magnetic fields can interfere with the equipment's regular work. Therefore, please ensu-
re all external devices used near the AED7000 comply with EMC demands.

Patient Safety

2.3.1 General
Accessory adapter required for use on pediatric patients.
The AED 7000 is not to be used on patients less than 8 years old or under 25kg
(55 lbs), unless it is equipped with the accessory AED 7000 Pediatric Energy Reducer.
Patient Physical Harm
Place the AED7000 in a position where it cannot harm the patient should it fall. Do not
use adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. Keep all cables and connectors away
from the patient's neck.
2.3.2 Shock Hazard
Defibrillation current can cause injury
Do not touch the patient during defibrillation.
Do not touch equipment connected to or metal objects in contact with the patient
during defibrillation. Disconnect other electrical equipment which has no DEFIBRILLA-
TION-PROOF applied parts from the patient before defibrillating.
Avoid contact between parts of the patient's body such as exposed skin of head or limbs,
conductive fluids such as gel, blood or saline and metal objects such as a bed frame or a
stretcher which may provide unwanted pathways for the defibrillating current.
2.3.3 Burn
Properly place defibrillation pads
Do not allow defibrillation pads to touch each other, or to touch other electrodes, lead wi-
res, dressings, transdermal patches, etc. Such contact can cause patient skin burns during
defibrillation and may divert defibrillating current away from the heart. Remove excessive
body hair, which may cause skin burns or ineffective energy transfer. Do not use alcohol,
iodine or other skin preparations. These can dry the skin and may cause the AED7000 to
function improperly or may cause skin burns.
Defibrillator electrodes shall be kept well clear of other electrodes or metal parts in con-
tact with the patient.
