SimMan 3G PLUS Important Information
Defibrillation Hazards
SimMan allows for defibrillation in accordance
with AHA 2020 international guidelines for CPR.
A conventional defibrillator may be used on
the Patient Simulator. During live defibrillation,
the defibrillator and Patient Simulator may
present a shock hazard. All standard safety
precautions must be taken when using a
defibrillator on the Patient Simulator. For
more information, consult your defibrillator's
User Guide.
Warnings
• Do not defibrillate the Patient Simulator when
it is OFF or if it is not functioning normally.
• Do not defibrillate the Patient Simulator
without the torso skin.
• The Patient Simulator torso must always be
kept dry.
• DO NOT use outdoors in wet conditions.
• Do not spill fluids on the defibrillator plates.
Wet defibrillator plates may lead to a shock
hazard during defibrillation of the simulator.
• Allow the Patient Simulator to acclimate
before defibrillating. Sudden changes in
temperature (moving the Patient Simulator
from a cold environment to a warm
environment and vice versa) may result in
condensation collecting on the base board
and pose a shock hazard.
• Defibrillation must be performed on the
defibrillator discs only.
• The Patient Simulator must not come into
contact with electrically conductive surfaces
or objects during defibrillation.
• Do not defibrillate the Patient Simulator in a
flammable or oxygen enriched atmosphere.
• The ECG connectors are designed exclusively
for ECG monitoring and must not be
used for defibrillation. Defibrillation on the
ECG connectors will damage the internal
electronics of the Patient Simulator and may
cause personal injury.
Cautions
• Using a defibrillator in temperatures over
35 °C (95 °F) may cause overheating and
shutdown. If automatic shutdown occurs, allow
the Patient Simulator to cool down before
resuming the training session. Open the torso
skin to speed up the cooling process.
• To prevent torso skin electrode pitting, do
not apply conductive gel or conductive
defibrillation pads intended for patient use.
Note
Electrical arcing may occur during defibrillation.
This happens when the pads are not stuck
properly to the manikin, the gel can become
overheated and produce a strong smell. This is
not harmful to neither the user nor the product.
Battery
Warnings
• Inserting and connecting batteries incorrectly,
short circuiting or exposure to fluids pose an
explosion hazard.
• Do not mistreat, disassemble or attempt to
repair the battery.
• Do not use the batteries if they are visibly
damaged, malfunction or appear to leak
electrolyte.
• Take extreme care to avoid direct contact
with electrolyte, hot or smoking parts. In case
of the above, disconnect and remove the
battery when it is judged safe to do so.
• Only use the SimMan Family (except
SimMan ALS) external power supply and
batteries.
• The external battery charger is for indoor
use only.
• Never store fully charged batteries for longer
than a month.
• Never store the batteries inside the Patient
Simulator.
• The batteries should only be charged and
used at the specified temperature ranges.
Cautions
• Do not run the Patient Simulator for more
than 1 minute on a single battery.
• After the Patient Simulator is turned off, wait
20 seconds before restarting or the Patient
Simulator may not function properly.

User Guide.
