3.3 Comfort settings
The air pressure in the mattress can be adjusted according to the
user´s desire for comfort. Always consult the prescriber or other
authorised personnel for the appropriate setting.
Adjust the pressure with the comfort setting knob according to
the table on the pump.
NOTE!
• When the head end of the bed is raised, the pressure should be increased at least one
(1) step.
• For amputated users, when only part of the mattress is under load, the pressure should
be increased by 1-2 steps.
• Recommended users' weight is up to 200 kg.
3.4 Handcheck (function control)
Hand check is used to ensure that the mattress is properly
inflated. This should be done regularly, once per shift, after
changing the position in the bed or changing the comfort settings.
Open the cover. Place a flat hand under the air cells directly
underneath the user's pelvic region and make sure that the user
does not lay directly on the underlying mattress. There should be
about 1-2 fingers margin.
If you can feel the user´s body resting on your hand you need to increase the comfort settings
to next highest step. Wait 10 minutes and perform a new hand check.
3.5 CPR
In case of an emergency where CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is
necessary: Rapidly pull the CPR band on the tubes between the pump
and the mattress. Remove the tube connections on the side of the pump,
for even faster deflation.
Note! Make sure that the CPR connector is properly connected after use.
3.6 Low pressure
By an abnormally low air pressure, see chapter 7 for troubleshooting.
