  The siren stops and a voice prompt alerts bystanders 

that the treatment has been stopped.

  NO ONE ELSE should press the response buttons. 

Only you, the patient, should press the response 
buttons.

  If you feel dizzy, find a place to sit or lie down.

  You can press and release the buttons; you don’t have 

to hold them continuously. Press and release the 
response buttons each time you feel the vibration alert 
or hear the siren alert. 

If you are not conscious, naturally you will not be able to 
press the response buttons.

  This allows the device to deliver a treatment.

  Voice prompts alert bystanders not to touch you.

  Voice prompts also alert bystanders to call an 

ambulance after you have been given a treatment.

  If you fail to press the response buttons when you are awake, you may 

receive a treatment, which will be painful. That is why you need to press the 
response buttons if you get the siren alert. 

y

  If you receive a treatment while your heart is beating normally, the treatment 

may cause an abnormal rhythm to occur. There is a small possibility that the 
abnormal heart rhythm may not be detected and death may result. 

y

  Do not press the response buttons by artificial means or by having another 

person press them for you. If anyone other than the patient presses the 
response buttons, needed therapy may not be delivered, possibly resulting in 
serious injury or death. 

y

  Do not remove the battery from the monitor when you get alerts. The device 

needs to be powered up in order to continue to function.
