24 hour Access

The defibrillators described above as "24 hour access" are open to public use all the time. The units display some instructions (see photo) but they are a bit confusing, especially in the heat of an emergency. Basically you have to phone 999 and quote the location code (displayed on the front of the unit). You will then be given a code to be typed into the keyboard on the unit to open it up for use.

The defibrillators described above are not necessarily the type shown in the photo.
