OPERATION
General
This product is designed to provide maximum comfort to home care patients. Make sure that
you operate this product in a proper way to optimise its value. Here we provide some general
information you should be aware of.
For products: DO NOT use another pump with different specifications. It is dangerous to
use a pump with pressure capacity greater than 120 mmHg. This may result
in cell-puncture.
DO NOT change any component by yourself. If there is need for
replacement or repair, always contact your local dealer or service center.
For patients: When the Normal Pressure indicator (green) comes on to indicate that the
pressure has been adjusted to a desired level of firmness, the patient can
then lie on the mattress.
Please cover the mattress with a cotton sheet to avoid direct skin contact
and for the patient’s comfort.
A firm surface will make it easier for the patient to transfer or reposition.
Make use of the static mode function. It can support the patient by keeping
the mattress from bottoming out when the patient is in a sitting position. See
figure below.
Hand check: Check if the pressure is properly adjusted by sliding one hand between the
air mattress and the foam base (or bed frame if there is no foam base) to
feel the patient’s buttock.
Users should be able to feel the space in between, and the acceptable
range is approximately 25 to 40 mm (1” to 1-1/2”). This hand check
procedure is issued by AHCPR.
Always read the operating instructions before use.

10
11
Turn the power ON
A BEEP sound will begin the operation. The indicator (green) of the power switch will light up,
and the pump starts to pump air into the mattress. The LOW PRESSURE indicator (red) will
flicker as the inflation of the mattress undergoes.
NOTE!!
The audible alarm would not be heard when inflating up the mattress for the first time.
Automatic STATIC mode
The pump will automatically enter STATIC when it is turned on, and will return to the previous
conditions when it was shut down last time once the pressure reaches 20 mmHg.
NOTE!!
If the pressure does not reach 20 mmHg 40 minutes after the pump is turned on, the audible
alarm will start to beep, and the LOW PRESSURE indicator will continue flickering.
Mode selection
Press the STATIC / ALTERNATING switch to change the function mode from ALTERNATING to
STATIC and vice versa.
NOTE!!
It is recommended to always keep the pump in the ALTERNATING mode when the patient is in
a lying position for more efficient pressure ulcer prevention and treatment.
The pump will automatically return to ALTERNATING mode 2 hours after switching to the
STATIC mode.
NOTE!!
The STATIC mode provides an even support that will make the patient transfer or reposition
easier. The STATIC mode also prevents the patient from bottoming out when in the seating
position.
Pressure adjustment
The pressure of the mattress can be set by pressing the PRESSURE SELECTION keys.
There are totally 8 different pressure levels selectable ranging from 20 to 60 mmHg.
NOTE!!
Pressing the [+] key will bring the pressure one level higher, and the [-] key will bring the pressure
one level lower.
It is recommended to follow the HAND CHECK procedure as demonstrated on page 9 to decide
the appropriate pressure level.
Automatic pressure control
During normal operation, the pump will monitor pressure changes and keep it
constant at the set level. When the pressure is below the set pressure level, the pump will
automatically start to inflate the mattress. The pump will stop when the set pressure level is
reached.
NOTE!!
If the pressure is consistently low, the audible alarm will beep and its indicator will light up to
attract attention.
If there should be obvious leakage, for example caused by loose connection of tubes, the
audible/visible alarm will be activated.
For nursing and caring convenience
Press the AUTOFIRM switch to automatically inflate the mattress to the maximum level (above
70 mmHg) for about 30 minutes. The pump will return to the previous pressure level 30
minutes later.
Placing the patient in the seating position
Press the SEAT switch to for the even support and 10mmHg higher pressure to prevent the
patient from bottoming out when placing the patient in the seating position for feeding or other
applications.

12
13
To silence the alarm
If the pressure drops below the pre-defined level, the LOW PRESSURE indicator will light up
accompanied with a BEEP alarm tone. If the pump fails to alternate in the ALTERNATING
mode, the SYSTEM FAILURE indicator will light up accompanied with a BEEP alarm tone. If
the pump looses power input, the POWER FAILURE indicator will light up accompanied with a
BEEP alarm tone.
In any case, pressing the MUTE switch will silence the alarm, but the indicator will continue
flickering. Re-pressing the MUTE switch will re-activate the audible alarm.
Always read the operating instructions beforeuse.
CPR function
When there is an emergency to perform CPR on the patient, pull the CPR strap immediately to
release the air quickly from the mattress.
The CPR strap is located at the front right-hand side of the mattress.
Pressure set up
Users can adjust the pressure level of the air mattress to a desired firmness by themselves or
according to the suggestion from a health care professional.
NOTE！！
It is recommended that the pressure-adjust knob turned to Firm or press Auto
Firm on the panel when the mattress is first inflated. Users can then easily
adjust the air mattress to a desired firmness according to the patient’s weight
and comfort.
Low pressure warning
When abnormal pressure occurs, the Low Pressure indicator will come on.
The audible alarm will be activated to bring attention to a low pressure condition.
Check if the connections are secure and correctly installed according to the relevant
instructions.
NOTE！！
If the pressure is consistently low, check for any leakage (in tubes or connecting
hoses). If necessary, contact your local dealer to replace any damaged tubes or hoses.
EMC WARNING
During operation, cell phone with a maximum output power of 2W shall be kept at least
3.3 m away.

a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV
broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic
environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Air pump is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Air pump should be observed to verify
normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be
necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Air pump.
b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
