STRUCTURE
The system circulates air through 16 individual cells divided into three sections: head, seat and foot. It has integrated side air bolsters with a foot pillow. Air circulates through the cells and escapes from 33 air openings distributed equally across the top mattress surface. It circulates under a vapour permeable cover to wick moisture away from the patient.

ATTACHMENT
Four straps are located on each side of the mattress cover. These are for strapping to the bed frame.

PUMP/CONTROLS
A separate, portable, alternating pressure pump features digital control of cycle time, pressure range, panel lock to prevent accidental changes to settings, autofirm (for quick inflation at set up), static mode and seat inflate. There is a written guide on the front of the pump for reference. The pump has a bracket attachment to enable it to be hung on the bed frame if desired. Pump operates using mains power.

COVER
A fluid resistant cover with two way stretch is provided. The cover is vapour permeable and has microbial properties. It covers the entire mattress and attaches with a zipper

SAFETY FEATURES
In case of emergency, turn the power off. Deflation will be aided by removing the hose from the mattress or control unit.

CLEANING REQUIREMENTS
Clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, alcohol or solvents. Wipe dry. The air mattress should be inflated while cleaning. Do not heat or steam clean.

MAINTENANCE

METHOD OF OPERATION
1. Installation - Remove existing mattress from the bed. Insert the mattress and mattress pad inside the mattress cover and zip the cover shut. Place on the bed frame. Ensure the hole in the mattress cover is in the correct position to fit around the hose fitting outlet on the mattress. Using the four straps located on each side of the mattress cover, strap the cover to the bed frame. While the mattress is inflating it may be helpful to partially unzip the cover and guide the mattress into the correct formation.

2. Plug into power outlet, turn the power switch on and allow mattress to fully inflate.

3. Place client on mattress in a normal relaxed position.

4. Determine the client's weight and set the comfort level using the comfort level softer and firmer buttons. Inspect the client to ensure they are sunk into the mattress about forty to fifty percent. If not adjust using the comfort level soft and firmer buttons.
