Inserted into the main battery pack, it has a 1-year expected life once installed and ensures the unit's readiness display stays lit and visible — even when the AED is sitting unused for months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine Defibtech lithium 9V\u003c\/strong\u003e — required for proper status indicator function.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowers the active readiness indicator\u003c\/strong\u003e — keeps the green\/red status visible at a glance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1-year expected life\u003c\/strong\u003e once installed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTGA-compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType: Lithium 9V primary cell\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with: Defibtech Lifeline AED battery pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExpected life: 1 year from installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this is critical\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe status indicator is the at-a-glance signal that your AED is ready when needed. A flat status indicator battery doesn't disable the AED itself — but it does mean you've lost the visible-from-across-the-room confirmation that the unit is operational. Replace this 9V annually as part of your AED maintenance schedule, alongside any pad or main-battery checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the AED still work if this 9V is flat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — the main battery pack runs the AED itself. The 9V powers only the status indicator. But a flat indicator battery means you can't tell at a glance whether the AED is ready, which defeats the point of an active readiness display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use a hardware-store 9V?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse only genuine Defibtech 9V batteries. Third-party cells may have different voltage characteristics that affect the indicator circuit and can void your AED warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I replace it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollow the procedure in your Lifeline AED user manual — typically requires opening the battery pack housing.
