Daily/Shift Check Procedure
Inspection
Equipment and Accessories
• Ensure that the X Series unit is clean (with no fluid spills) and free of visible damage.
• Inspect all cables, cords, and connectors for signs of damage or excessive wear (cuts in
insulation, fraying, broken wires, dirty or bent connector pins). Replace if damaged.
• Inspect the battery, ECG patient cable, multifunction cable (MFC), OneStep cable, pulse
oximetry sensor, blood pressure cuff, and hose and temperature sensors for signs of damage
or excessive wear. Replace if damaged.
• Inspect the defibrillator paddles for damage or excessive wear. Check that paddle surfaces
are clean and free of electrolyte gel or other contaminants. Verify that all paddle controls
operate freely when pressed and released.
• Inspect the external AC adapter and its power cords for signs of damage. Replace if
damaged.
Supplies
• Verify the presence, proper condition, and appropriate quantities of all disposable supplies
(hands-free therapy electrodes, ECG monitoring electrodes, defibrillator gel, recorder paper,
alcohol swabs, razors/scissors, etc.).
• Verify that two sets of hands-free therapy pads are available.
• Ensure that the therapy and monitoring electrodes are sealed within the packages and within
the expiration dates printed on the packages.
• Open the recorder door on the left side of the X Series unit and verify that an adequate
supply of paper is available in the unit.
Batteries
• Verify that a charged battery is fully inserted into the battery compartment of the X Series
unit.
• Ensure that a fully charged spare battery pack is available.
Ready For Use Indicator
• Check the Ready For Use (RFU) indicator on the X Series front panel. Verify that the RFU
symbol is displayed.
If the RFU indicator is flashing or displaying the Do Not Use symbol, then either an
equipment fault has been detected or the unit's battery is low or not properly installed. Install
a fully charged battery in the unit and check the RFU indicator again. If the RFU indicator
continues to flash or display the Do Not Use symbol, remove the unit from service and
contact the appropriate technical personnel or the ZOLL Technical Service Department.
