5. Operating Instructions
The compressor unit allows for easy control of the mattress functions:
- ON/OFF Switch: Located on the front panel, this switch powers the compressor unit on or off.
- Pressure Regulator Dial: Adjust this dial to set the desired firmness of the mattress. Start with a medium setting and adjust based on patient comfort and clinical needs.
- Mode Switch (Static/Alternate): Select between 'Static' mode for continuous low pressure or 'Alternate' mode for dynamic pressure changes across the cells. 'Alternate' mode is typically used for pressure sore prevention and treatment.
- Visual Alarms: The compressor unit features visual indicators for power status and potential issues, alerting caregivers to abnormal operation.

CPR Valve:
In an emergency requiring rapid patient transfer or CPR, locate the red CPR strap on the side of the mattress. Pulling this strap will quickly deflate the mattress, allowing for immediate access to the patient.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning
Mattress Cover:
The removable cover is designed for easy cleaning. Unzip the cover and remove it from the mattress. Clean the cover by hand with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching. The material is vapor-permeable and water-resistant, offering protection to the internal cells.

Air Cells:
The individual air cells are detachable and replaceable. In case of damage to a single cell, it can be easily removed and replaced with a spare. To replace a cell, unzip the mattress cover, detach the damaged cell from its connectors, and insert the new cell, ensuring all connections are secure.
