1. Firmly pull the yellow rapid release CPR tag A from the
side of the mattress to deflate the whole system.
2. Switch off the control unit.
Mattress will start to deflate.
3.
When CPR is complete replace the yellow CPR Tag
ensuring the sealing connectors are firmly attached and
restart the control unit following chapter "Activating the
control unit". Using the target design to line up each
plug with it's corresponding socket.
IMPORTANT!
– Wait for the mattress system to gain optimal
pressure.
– Perform a "bottoming out" test after inflating
the mattress following rapid deflation.
5.6 Audible Warning Functions
The audible warning LED flashes, and an audible warning
sounds, to indicate that the control unit or mattress pressure
has failed. The LED will remain illuminated until appropriate
pressure is restored. The audible warning can be silenced by
pressing the audible warning mute button.
The system has four different audible warning signals and
one service indicator, identified by five different symbols.
The symbols are illustrated below.

5.7 Transporting a patient on the
mattress
1. Before patient transport, press the Mode button and
wait at least 12 minutes for cells to inflate to maximum
pressure.
If a quicker response is required (up to 5-10
minutes), then use the Max Firmness button.
2. Once mattress pressure has reached maximum inflation,
press the Power button to switch off the control unit.
Switch off mains supply and unplug the power cord.
3. Remove the connector from the control unit and allow
air to escape for a few seconds before inserting the
transport cap into the connector air outlets to seal the
system. This release softens the mattress surface for
pressure relief and comfort. Ensure the cap is firmly
secured across both air hose outlets.
CAUTION!
Air pressure is released from all internal static
cells as well as alternating sections.
– Regularly perform a "bottoming out" test to
ensure the patient is appropriately supported.
Description
Indicates no pressure
output due to mains
power failure. This
will trigger the audible
warning (press mute
button to silence) and a
flashing LED light. The LED
light will change to a fixed
light within 3 seconds.
When the power is back
on, the audible warning
and the LED light will
revert to normal mode.
Indicates that the
system did not complete
initialization within 50
minutes, the mute button
LED light will have a fixed
light.
Indicates that service is
needed, the LED light will
have a fixed light. This will
occur when the control
unit has been running for
approximately 9000 hours.
