Installing Your DS3 AED Cabinet

Preparation and Unpacking

Begin by thoroughly reading the installation instructions to grasp the setup process. Unpack the defibrillator next. Remove the plastic from the back screen and inspect all components to ensure completeness and readiness for installation.

Selecting the Installation Site

Choose a solid mounting location, such as a brick wall, which provides excellent stability. Ensure this location has access to a mains power supply for electrical connection. Always employ a certified electrician to handle electrical tasks to ensure safety and compliance.

Drilling and Mounting

Before drilling, employ a detector to check for hidden cables or pipes to avoid potential damage. Align the main sign against the wall, checking its level with a spirit level. Mark the drilling points clearly using a fine felt-tip pen, then remove the sign to clear the area for drilling.

With the right safety gear on, proceed to drill using a hammer drill suitable for the wall type. Follow the instructions to drill to the correct depth and insert the wall plugs smoothly against the wall.

Securing the Backboard and Bracket

Start by securing the top anchor of the backboard first to support the weight. Attach the mounting bracket next, ensuring it is firmly screwed through the back plate into the wall plugs.

Once you have securely mounted the backboard and bracket, clean the area to ensure a dust-free environment for placing the defibrillator cabinet.

Final Assembly and Electrical Installation

For the final step in Installing Your DS3 AED Cabinet, you will need assistance. Align the cabinet with the bracket and carefully lower it into place. Secure the cabinet with the special grub screws provided to prevent theft.

Conclude the installation by having a professional electrician make the electrical connections. Test the cabinet’s functionality by entering the default code and checking the door’s operation. Your unit is now ready for use, securely installed, and operational.
