  • Causa
    1.The device may turn itself on without input from the user. when this occurs, the normal sequence of audible prompts will be emitted from the device. if this issue continues undetected, the battery will eventually become completely depleted below the minimum battery capacity necessary to allow for the delivery of therapy.2. certain devices may misinterpret a temporary drop in battery voltage as signalling low battery. this issue will result in the device prematurely displaying the low battery warning and turning itself off even if sufficient battery capacity remains. if the low battery warning is triggered due to this issue, the device will have sufficient power to deliver multiple shocks, but it is possible that the device will only deliver one shock before turning itself off. devices containing software version 1.4.2/ 3.2.0 or higher are not susceptible to this issue.
