SAFETY WARNINGS
General Safety Warnings
This section contains important safety warnings regarding the general use of
TECNOHEART plus. Additional safety warnings are provided inside this manual.
In the manual, TECNOHEART plus will be referred to as AED
Read the operator manual carefully before use, as well as any additional instructions for
use, and all of the information and precautionary specifications.
Warnings
Warnings are identified by the WARNING symbol displayed above
The warnings identify the danger of potentially dangerous situations (death, injury or
adverse events), damaging the patient or the user.
WARNING: It is essential that all of the users of an AED notify TECNO-GAZ of any accidents
when the AED is suspected of having caused death, serious injury or disease. If
you have any concerns that a similar case has occurred, you are required to notify
TECNO-GAZ directly or through your authorised TECNO-GAZ supplier.
WARNING: The AED must be used by staff trained in CPR manoeuvres and AED use. The
qualifications for use of the AED must follow local legislation.
WARNING: The AED can deliver therapeutic electrical shocks. The shock can cause serious
damage to the operator as well as to bystanders. It is necessary to be very careful that
neither operator nor bystander touch the AED when a shock is about to be delivered.
WARNING: The AED was not designed or approved for use in dangerous areas as specified
in the American National Electrical Code (Articles 500-503). In fulfilment of the
requirements of the IEC/EN 60601-1 classifications, the AED must not be used in the
presence of flammable substances/air mixtures.
WARNING: The AED was designed to operate on unconscious patients, who are not
breathing and do not have a heartbeat*. If the patient is conscious or breathing and their
heartbeat starts up again, do not use the AED. (*health care staff is in charge of
monitoring the heat beat)
WARNING: Touching the patient during the treatment analysis phase may cause interference
with the diagnostic process. Avoid contact with the patient and keep him/her
as still as possible while running the ECG. The AED will tell you when it is safe to touch
the patient.
WARNING: Keep your distance from the patient during treatment. The defibrillation energy
delivered to the patient could be conducted through the patient's body and cause a lethal
shock to anyone touching the patient.
WARNING: It has been determined that the use of the AED is safe when used in combination
with oxygen delivery systems, through masks. Nonetheless, due to the risk
of explosion, it is strongly recommended not to use the AED near explosive gases.
This includes flammable anaesthetics, concentrated oxygen and petrol.
WARNING: The same electrodes can be used on Adult and Paediatric patients. Adult mode
must be used on patients that are 8 years of age or older. Paediatric mode must be
used on patients who are under 8 years of age or who weigh less than 25 kg (55lb).

2
Do not use the AED on patients who are under 1 year of age.
WARNING: Correct electrode positioning is crucial. It is essential to follow the electrode
positioning instructions carefully, provided on the labels and during training. It is necessary
to make sure that the electrodes adhere well to the patient's skin. It is necessary to eliminate
any air pockets between the electrode and the skin. If the electrodes fail to adhere well to
the skin, this could affect the effectiveness of the therapy or cause excessive lesions on the
patient's skin when an electrical shock is delivered. It is normal for the skin to redden
following treatment.
WARNING: The AED battery is not rechargeable. Do not attempt to recharge, open, crush or
burn the battery, as it could explode or catch fire.
WARNING: Keep the electrodes from coming into contact with other electrodes or metal
parts that are touching the patient. This contact could cause burns to the patient's skin
during defibrillation and could divert the defibrillation current away from the heart.
WARNING: Be careful of any possible contact with the conductive part of the electrode, the
connector line, the connectors for cables, or any other parts applied to the patient, for
the safety of the patient him/herself.
WARNING: Do not use the unit near or inside pools of water.
WARNING: Do not re-use the electrodes on multiple patients.
WARNING: Only use the AED or the accessories according to the methods described in this
manual. Improper use of the AED can cause death or injury.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE OR ACTIVATE THE AED
IF THE STATUS INDICATOR READS "X".
WARNING: Keep the batteries dry and away from sources of heat (including direct sunlight).
If there is any visible damage or loss, prevent the liquid from coming into
contact with your skin or eyes. If there has been contact, rinse the affected part
abundantly with water and immediately seek medical attention.
WARNING: The AED is equipped with an automatic device to deactivate accumulated energy.
If the operator has not released the energy on the patient, an internal timer will
deactivate the accumulated energy. Accumulated energy can cause death or injury if
discharged improperly. Follow the instructions provided herein.

Attention:
Situations of alert are marked by the ATTENTION symbol illustrated above.
Attention signs identify conditions or actions that could cause damage to the equipment or
to property.
ATTENTION: The AED may not operate correctly if it is activated or stored in conditions that
differ from those set forth herein
ATTENTION: The AED is resistant and reliable in various conditions of use. Nonetheless, an
overly aggressive AED treatment can cause damage to the unit or the accessories, causing
the warranty to lapse. Check the AED and its accessories for any damage, on a regular
basis and based on the instructions.
ATTENTION: Before delivering a shock, it is important to disconnect the patient from other
electrical medical equipment, such as blood flow meters, that may not be equipped with
protection from defibrillators. Also make sure that the electrodes are not touching metal
objects such as bed frames or tensioners.
ATTENTION: Only remove the protective film from the cartridge when you are ready to use
the electrodes.
ATTENTION: Do not use or activate the AED before reading the Operator Manual for the
AED.
ATTENTION: Do not use the AED or connect it to other equipment. If the AED is used with
or connected to other equipment, check operation carefully prior to use.
ATTENTION: Treating or transporting the patient during the ECG analysis could cause
interference with the diagnostic process, which could prolong analysis times. If the AED
reads SCARICA CONSIGLIATA (SHOCK RECOMMENDED) during treatment or transport, stop
the device and keep the patient as still as possible for at least 15 seconds before pressing
the Scarica (shock) button, so that the AED can re-confirm the analysis of the heartbeat
ATTENTION: It is necessary to perform periodic checks on this device to ensure, among
other things, that the AED is not damaged in any way.
ATTENTION: The electrodes are a single-use accessory and must be replaced after every
use or if the electrodes are broken/compromised in any way. If you suspect any damage,
the electrodes need to be replaced immediately.
ATTENTION: Do not use training electrodes with thisAED
ATTENTION: Be particularly careful with patients with pacemakers. To determine whether
there is a pacemaker, it is necessary to run a physical exam and study the patient's medical
history. In patients with pacemakers, the AED could have less sensitivity and may not
detect all of the rhythms required for defibrillation.
ATTENTION: If the electrodes adhere well to the patient's chest, the AED can analyse the
precise ECG and avoid burns to the skin. If, however, the electrodes overlap on the
patient's chest, they will not deliver the defibrillation energy correctly.
