User Guide
To install the AutoPulse NiMH Battery, first make sure the Battery Latch is rotated out of the way so that
the AutoPulse NiMH Battery can slide into the Battery compartment (see Figure 2-12). Then slide the
AutoPulse NiMH Battery into the Battery compartment in the AutoPulse Platform. The Battery should
snap into place and mount flush with the AutoPulse Platform. Then rotate the Battery Latch into position
to ensure the AutoPulse NiMH Battery is retained.
The AutoPulse NiMH Battery is mechanically keyed so that it can only be inserted in one orientation. If
resistance is met, check for appropriate orientation, and check to ensure there are no obstructions to
Battery insertion and that the Battery Latch is open.
Ensure that the AutoPulse NiMH Battery is securely latched (snaps into place) before moving the
AutoPulse Platform or initiating chest compression. Power on the AutoPulse every time the AutoPulse
NiMH Battery is installed to ensure it is properly seated and providing power to the AutoPulse Platform.
To remove the Battery, first rotate the Battery Latch into the open position as shown in Figure 2-12. Then
hold the AutoPulse Platform firmly and grip the Battery while pressing the finger latch upwards to
disengage the locking bar (see Figure 2-12), then pull the Battery straight out until it fully clears the
Battery compartment.
Caution: Only use ZOLL Batteries specifically designed for use with the AutoPulse. The use of other
batteries may cause permanent damage to the AutoPulse and will void the warranty.
