11. Alarms & Fault Findings
The Heritage II Digital is equipped with audible and visual alarm indicators. These alert the user to the
status of the available mains supply and any mattress defect.
11.1 Low pressure alarm
Upon detection of low pressure, an audible alarm will be heard and the Low Pressure indicator will
illuminate. The audible alarm may be cancelled by pressing the Alarm Mute button. The Low
Pressure indicator will continuously illuminate until the low pressure fault condition is resolved.
This condition could be caused, for example, by incorrect fitting of the air pipe connector, opening of
the CPR valve or a leak in the mattress due to a cut or puncture.
Issue: 4 - 16/08/18
CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation) can be performed using
the red CPR valve which is situated at the head end on the left
hand side of the mattress.
For rapid deflation gently pull and rotate the dial of the CPR valve
to 'click' into the OPEN position. At the same time, disconnect
the air pipe connector from the power unit to speed up the air
release.
If re-inflating the mattress, ensure the dial of the CPR attachment
is rotated until it 'clicks' into the CLOSED position.
If the patient is being moved on the mattress, or there is a
power cut, general pressure can be maintained in the system
for an adequate period of time whilst disconnected from the
mains.
Simply disconnect air pipe connector and place the connector
cover over it. The air pressures in the mattress will now
equalise, but maintain a degree of comfort. This will maintain
the cells in their present state for approximately 48 hours.
It is important to restore the Heritage II Digital dynamic
replacement mattress as quickly as possible by reconnecting
the supply tubes to the power unit.
