Turn on the AED.
Apply the AED pads.
 
Remove any clothing, jewellery, 
and medical patches that could 
interfere with pad placement.
If the chest is wet, dry the skin.
For a child or baby, use child or 
baby pads or ensure that the pads 
are 2.5 cm (1 in) apart. Place one 
on the front and one on the back if 
necessary.
Follow the AED’s automated 
prompts.
If the AED prompts you to do so, 
ensure that no one is touching 
the person and deliver a shock. Continue CPR, starting with 
chest compressions.
