3.2 Connecting The Defibrillation Pads
The DDU-2000 Series AED defibrillation pads are supplied sealed in a package with the connector and part of the
cable exposed. This allows the pads to be stored in a pre-connected state for rapid deployment during an emergency.
WARNING
DO NOT open the sealed pads package until the
pads are to be used. The packaging should be opened
only immediately prior to use, otherwise the pads
may dry out and become non-functional.
Note: The DDU-2000 Series AED is designed to be stored with the pads connector already installed. This simplifies
the procedure for deploying and operating the device in an emergency.
First, check to ensure that the pads package has not expired. The expiration date is printed on the pad pouch and is
also reported on the AED status screen. Do not use pads past expiration date. Discard expired pads.
