Hand check (function control)
Hand check is performed to ensure that the
mattress system works properly. Hand check
should be performed regularly; for CuroCell® iA
Automatic we recommend once every eight
hours as well as after installation of the system.
Note!
• Make sure that the mattress system is filled,
which is shown by a green light from the
diode, before performing a hand check.
• How to perform a hand check depends on
which mattress is used - read the label of
the mattress carefully to know which
mattress you have.
When using an overlay mattress system
(CuroCell® Ci10 or CuroCell® Ci10 PRO)
1a. Open the cover and identify a cell with less
air at the patient's sacrum. Insert a hand, with
the palm facing up, between the overlay
mattress and the underlying mattress. The hand
is inserted beneath the patient's sacrum (center
of mattress).
When using a full replacement mattress
(CuroCell® Ci17, CuroCell® Ci20, CuroCell® Ci17
PRO or CuroCell® Ci20 PRO)
1b. Open the cover and identify a cell with less
air at the patient's sacrum. Insert a hand, with
the palm facing up, between the top cells and
the underlying safety mattress. The hand is
inserted beneath the patient's sacrum (center of
mattress).
2. Ensure there is a gap between the patient and
the underlying mattress so that the patient does
not 'bottom out'.
3. If you can feel the patient's sacrum resting in
the palm of your hand, the gap is too small. See
section 10 'Troubleshooting'.

Different notifications exist based on
how serious the warning is. With a
malfunction or an error, a notification
will be given by a flashing warning
triangle. To mute the warning signal,
press the mute button.
and a notification code is shown on the four
different cycle time diodes (10, 15, 20, 25). To
read the cycle time during the error notification,
unlock the control panel.

Table of notifications
Information about each notification is shown in
the notification table on the next page.
• Some of the notifications are both audible and
visual. The error code will be displayed until
the error has been rectified. If the mute
button is pressed the audible warning will
crease for a period of 5 minutes and will
return until the error has been rectified.
• Some of the notifications have no audible
alarm. The error code is shown until the
system is restarted.
