4.2 Preparation
Checking The DDU-2000 Series AED Status
Visually check the Active Status Indicator (ASI). The ASI should flash green. The ASI flashes green to indicate ready
for use status. The ASI flashes red, solid red, or is not lit at all to indicate that service is required.
The ASI is powered by the battery pack. If the battery pack has been completely discharged or is not installed in the
unit, the active status indication will not be available. In this case, immediately replace the battery pack or reinsert it
into the unit to restore active status indication.

Turning On The DDU-2000 Series AED
Press the green ON/OFF button to turn the DDU-2000 Series AED on. The unit will emit a “beep” and the display
screen will turn on. The ASI indicator next to the ON/OFF button will illuminate green anytime the AED is on. (To turn
the unit off, press AND HOLD the ON/OFF button for approximately two seconds; the unit will emit a “beep” and

Call For Help
Call professional emergency services for help. As soon as the AED is turned on the unit will prompt the user to “Call for
help.” This is a reminder that the first step in a rescue should always be to contact professional emergency services.
If another person is available, the user should direct that person to call for help and then continue the rescue
without delay.
