• Pacing the heart with rates higher than 180 ppm
over a long period of time can cause severe hemo-
dynamic complications. Pacing with high rates
should only be performed when continuous moni-
toring is ensured.
• After a defibrillation or cauterization, the device
should be subjected to a function test.
• If the device will be stored for a long period of time,
the battery should be removed to prevent damage
due to leakage.
• A damp cloth and mild soap can be used for clean-
ing. Strong cleaning agents or organic solvents
should be avoided, as these can corrode the
plastic housing.
• Inspection and maintenance work should be
performed according to page 82.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries. The service
time of these batteries is difficult to estimate,
making it possible to inadvertently exceed the 
1
ERI time, resulting in sudden cessation of pacing.
Only 9-volt batteries with the international code
IEC 6LR61 may be used. When using the battery
type MN 1604 Duracell
is possible for at least 500 hours before the battery
must be replaced.
It is possible to exchange a battery while Reocor D
is in use. The device remains ready for use for at
least 30 s at the ambient temperature (20 ± 2°C)
when the battery is removed.
For safety reasons, the patient should be paced by
another source during the battery replacement.
