3. Installation and Start up - Model 1 IMPORTANT! This part only concerns model 1, the model where the support pump always is connected.
3.1 Installation When unpacking the mattress, check that none of the parts are damaged. In the event of damage, contact Care of Sweden or your local dealer before using the product. 1. Place the mattress on top of an existing mattress. If possible, secure it by pulling the elastic bands on the bottom over the corners of the underlying mattress. Note! If the mattress have an integrated foam core (CuroCell S.A.M.® BAS), place the mattress directly on to the bed base. If requested use the straps on the cover to fasten the mattress to the bed base. 2. Hang the pump by the foot end of the bed, or place it on a flat sturdy surface. Place the power cord so there is no risk of stumbling over it, run it over with the bed wheels, or getting it jammed when raising or lowering the bed.
NOTE! A pump bag is available as an option.
3. Connect the air tubes coming from the mattress to the side of the pump.
4. Check to make sure that the power is set to ’0’ (off). Plug in the power cord into an approved outlet (220 V).
NOTE! - Make up the bed with sheets to increase user comfort. - Check that the CPR-valve is closed.

3.2 Start-up NOTE! Always read the user manual prior to use.
1.
1. Start the pump by pressing ’1’ (on), on the side of the pump. The green light is lit. 2. The pump starts filling the mattress with air. It takes approximately 15-20 minutes before the mattress is ready to use.
3.3 Comfort settings The air pressure in the mattress can be adjusted according to user preference. Always consult the prescriber or other authorized personnel for the correct setting. When the mattress is filled, it is ready to be used. Adjust the pressure with the comfort setting knob according to the table on the pump.
NOTE! - When the head end of the bed is raised, the pressure should be increased at least one (1) step. - For amputated users, when only part of the mattress is under load, the pressure should be increased by 1-2 steps. - Recommended users weight is up to 200 kg.
3.4 Hand check Hand check is used to ensure that the mattress is properly inflated. This should be done regularly, once per shift, after changing the position in the bed or changing the comfort settings. Open the cover. Place a flat hand under the air cells directly underneath the user’s pelvic region and make sure that the user does not lay directly on the underlying mattress. There should be about 1-2 fingers margin. If you can feel the user´s body resting on your hand you need to increase the comfort settings to next highest step. Wait 10 minutes and perform a new hand check.

3.5 CPR In case of an emergency where CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is necessary: Rapidly pull the CPR band on the tubes between the pump and the mattress. Remove the tube connections on the side of the pump, for even faster deflation. Note! Make sure that the CPR connector is properly connected after use.
3.6 Low pressure By an abnormally low air pressure, see chapter 8 for trouble shooting.
WARNING! If the air pressure remains low, search for damages on the mattress and the tubes. Repair when needed or contact the supplier.
