When in use on a defibrillator/monitor, if the battery pack indicates a fault condition or any
operating state that can prevent the effective use of the defibrillator/monitor, replace that
battery pack as soon as possible.
•
Do not place foreign objects into battery sockets.
•
Do not use the SurePower II Battery Pack in the presence of flammable agents (such as
gasoline), oxygen-rich atmospheres, or flammable anesthetics. Using the device in the
presence of flammable agents can cause an explosion.

If the display indicators on the SurePower II Battery Pack are not consistent with the
