Check all parts are free from shipping damage. In case
of damage DO NOT use. Contact Sunrise Medical or
your supplier for further instructions.
Sunrise Medical recommends that a clinician such as
a doctor, therapist or rehab engineer experienced in
seating and positioning be consulted to determine if a J2
& J2 DC Cushion is appropriate.
Cushions should only be installed by:
• An authorized Sunrise Medical supplier
• A qualified healthcare professional who has
undergone appropriate training by either Sunrise
Medical or their approved supplier.

GENERAL WARNING

• Before using this cushion, you and each person
who may assist you, should read this entire Manual
and make sure to follow all instructions. Review the
Warnings often, until they are second nature to you.
• DO NOT install this equipment without first reading
and understanding this manual. If you are unable to
understand the Warnings, Cautions and Instructions,
contact a qualified clinician or supplier - otherwise
injury or damage may occur.
• Hook and loop Velcro® should not come into
prolonged contact with moisture as this may degrade
the adhesive and lead to a failure of the Velcro®.

WARNING
• Installing a cushion on a wheelchair may affect the
centre of gravity of the wheelchair and may cause
the wheelchair to tip backwards, potentially resulting
in injury. Always assess the potential need for anti-
tippers or amputee axle adapter brackets to be added
to the wheelchair to help increase stability.
• Prior to prolonged sitting, any cushion should be tried
for a few hours at a time while a clinician inspects
your skin to ensure that red pressure spots are not
developing. You should regularly check for skin
redness. The clinical indicator for tissue breakdown
is skin redness. If your skin develops redness,
discontinue the use of the cushion immediately and
see your doctor or therapist.
• The J2 & J2 DC cushion is designed to help reduce
the incidence of pressure ulcers. However, no cushion
can completely eliminate sitting pressure or prevent
pressure ulcers.
WARNING
• Do not leave the cushion outside overnight at
temperatures below 40° F (5° C). Allow the cushion
to warm to room temperature before using. Sitting
on extremely cold or hot surfaces can cause skin
damage.
• Avoid sharp objects or exposure to freezing, direct
sunlight, excessive heat or open flame.
• OBSTRUCTIONS: DO NOT: place any obstructions
between the user and the cushion because it will
reduce product effectiveness.
• CUSHION AND COVER ORIENTATION: Product
must be used the correct way up. If the cover is not
used correctly or if the cover is the wrong size, it may
reduce or eliminate the cushion's benefits and could
increase risk to the skin and soft tissue.
