with a repeating signal tone until the device delivers the electroshock automatically.

The device continues analysing heart rhythm while shock is being prepared. If the heart rhythm
changes during this period, defibrillation is aborted.
Danger!
There is always a risk of electrocution for the user and the by-standers. Make sure that
nobody touches the patient and there is no electrical connection in the surrounding or on
the floor which may transmit electricity. Otherwise, life threatening injuries may occur for the user
and the by-standers. You can touch the patient only after hearing the instruction "Patient may be
touched".
Basic Life Support

instruction "Patient may be touched. Carry on resuscitation: alternately
make 30 chest compressions and give 2 mouth-to-mouth breaths." is heard.
Simultaneously, the green light and LEDs around the second instruction field (in the
middle) light, which indicates that the patient can be touched from the moment.
CardiAid also provides metronomic signals to guide the rescuer with the correct rhythm and number
for the chest compressions. After 30 signal tones, verbal instruction "Now give 2 mouth to mouth
breaths" is heard, followed by a short silence for rescue breaths. Then, the user is directed to chest
compressions with the verbal instruction: "Now give 30 times chest compressions". This cycle is
repeated for 2 minutes according to the latest resuscitation guidelines.
Caution!
If you detect signs of life like consciousness or breathing during resuscitation, proceed as
indicated in section "Signs of Life Present".
Caution!
After basic life support, recheck the status of electrodes. If necessary, press the electrodes
firmly on patient's chest to re-establish the contact.
After 2 minutes according to the current resuscitation guidelines, a new heart rhythm analysis starts
