    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THERE WAS ONLY ONE EVENT RECORDED IN THE MEMORY ON THE RETURNED PAD DEVICE. THIS EVENT OCCURRED ON (B)(6) 2012. ALL OTHER EVENTS BEFORE THIS DATE HAVE BEEN ERASED. A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE RETURNED PAD SHOWED THAT THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL POGO-PIN HAD BEEN RETRACTED BACK INTO THE UNIT CAUSING IT TO BE JAMMED. WHEN A TEST PAD-PAK WAS INSERTED THE DEVICE WOULD NOT POWER ON, CONFIRMING THE FAULT. THE PROBLEM WITH THE DEVICE NOT TURNING ON WAS CAUSED BY THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL POGO-PIN NOT MAKING CONTACT WITH THE PAD-PAK BECAUSE IT WAS DAMAGED. THE PAD PAK, WHICH CONTAINS THE ELECTRODES AND BATTERIES, IS LABELLED FOR SINGLE USE BUT THE SAMARITAN PAD 300 AND 300P DEVICES ARE FOR MULTI-USE.
