OPERATION
1. Turn the power switch
to the ON position.
2. Adjust the pressure
adjust knob to the
maximum position.
Info: Set the pressure adjust knob to the maximum position
for the quickest inflation at set-up; the mattress can then be
adjusted to the desired pressure.
3. The pump will begin
delivering air into the
mattress. While the
mattress is lling, the
low pressure indicator (yellow LED) will illuminate.
4. When the selected
pressure level is
reached, the low
pressure indicator will
de-illuminate, and the normal pressure indicator (green
LED) will automatically illuminate.
5. Replace all sheets, blankets, and pillows on the bed.
PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Generally, a lighter patient will need a lower (softer)
setting while a heavier patient will need a higher (rmer)
setting, but pressure adjustment must ultimately be based
on the patient's weight distribution. A short, stocky person
may be the same weight as a tall, thin person, but their
settings will not be the same. The mattress should be rm
enough to support the patient, yet soft enough so the
patient will sink down to eliminate pressure points. Test
the pressure by placing four ngers below the mattress
