9 Backrest Mode
If the backrest on the bed is raised, with the patient in a semi-recumbent position, the system detects
the new position and automatically adjusts internal cell pressures to provide optimal pressure
redistribution and additional support.
When the backrest is lowered the system detects this and automatically adjusts internal cell pressures
to return to the previous setting.

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 Bariatric mattress as quickly as
possible by reconnecting the supply tubes to the power unit.
