It also specifies that immunity applies to an entity that owns, leases, or manages a premises on which an AED is used but does not own or use the AED. Additionally, the bill limits the liability of the person who owns or acquires an AED for harm resulting from its use unless that person fails to appropriately maintain the AED.
