2. Setup
Before using your Prestan CPR manikins, follow these steps for proper setup:
2.1. Battery Installation
The LED Rate Monitor requires batteries (not included). Locate the battery compartment, typically on the back or side of the manikin's torso. Insert the required batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
Note: Batteries are required for the LED Rate Monitor to function.
2.2. Lung Bag/Face Shield Installation
- Open the manikin's head to access the lung bag cavity.
- Carefully insert a new, clean lung bag into the cavity, ensuring it is properly seated.
- Align the face shield portion of the lung bag over the manikin's face, covering the mouth and nose area.
- Secure the head back into place.
- Ensure a tight seal around the mouth and nose for effective ventilation practice.
Important: Use a new lung bag for each student or training session for hygiene.
3. Operating Instructions
The Prestan CPR manikins are designed to provide realistic feedback for effective CPR training.
3.1. Chest Compressions
- Position the manikin on a firm, flat surface.
- Locate the correct compression site on the manikin's chest.
- Perform chest compressions according to current CPR guidelines (rate and depth).
3.2. Feedback System
The manikins provide two primary forms of feedback:
- LED Rate Monitor: The LED lights on the manikin's shoulder/chest area indicate the rate of chest compressions.
- Red/Yellow Lights: Indicate compression rate is too slow or too fast.
- Green Lights: Indicate the compression rate is within the recommended range (typically 100-120 compressions per minute).
- Audible Clicker: An audible click will sound when the chest compressions reach the correct depth. This provides immediate confirmation of proper depth.

3.3. Ventilations (Rescue Breaths)
- After performing compressions, tilt the manikin's head back to open the airway.
- Pinch the nose and deliver two rescue breaths into the manikin's mouth, observing for chest rise.
- The lung bag will inflate, simulating lung expansion.
4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and hygiene of your Prestan CPR manikins.
4.1. Cleaning
- After each use, wipe down the manikin's surfaces with a mild soap and water solution or a disinfectant wipe.
- Ensure all surfaces are dry before storage.
- Do not submerge the manikins in water.
4.2. Lung Bag Replacement
Replace lung bags after each training session or as needed to maintain hygiene and proper function. Refer to Section 2.2 for installation instructions.
4.3. Storage
- Store manikins in the provided nylon carrying case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Remove batteries if the manikins will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.
5. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| LED Rate Monitor not lighting up. | No batteries, dead batteries, or incorrect battery polarity. | Install new batteries or check battery orientation. |
| No audible clicker sound during compressions. | Compressions not deep enough. | Increase compression depth until the clicker sounds. Ensure manikin is on a firm surface. |
| Manikin chest not rising during ventilations. | Improper lung bag installation, airway not open, or poor seal around mouth/nose. | Re-install lung bag, ensure head tilt/chin lift is performed, and check for a tight seal. |
