#1 These devices are brilliant, and fairly idiot-resistant, not giving a shock unless they detect that a shock is needed. Ironically, a LOT of people are greviously injured by dummies giving them violent CPR when they don't need it, breaking ribs and even puncturing lungs. So let the machine do the heart-starting, and concentrate on the mouth-to-mouth. (p.s. as soon as the wake up, they often trombone-vomit on you. they don't show that part on teevee.)
