During AED Pre-Flight, which status is indicated by the status light?

• A. Status light flashing RED
• B. Status light flashing GREEN
• C. Status light flashing BLUE
• D. Status light off

Answer: (B)

During AED Pre-Flight, you’re confirming the unit is healthy and ready to use. A green flashing status light is the normal indicator that the AED has passed its self-test and is ready for operation. It shows the device is powered, checks have succeeded, and it’s in proper readiness for immediate use. A red flashing light would signal a fault or maintenance need, so it wouldn’t be considered ready. Blue or off doesn’t indicate readiness in this pre-flight context, so the green flash is the best signal that the AED is ready.
