E. Check Your Skin Daily
These Axiom Seating and Positioning products are designed to improve pressure distribution
and increase sitting tolerance. Whether the cushion provided will meet your individual needs
cannot be assured in advance. The integrity of your skin can be affected by many aspects of
your daily life and medical condition, including the use of this product. Be sure to follow any
skin care regimens established by your clinician.
Users of this product should make sure their skin is inspected daily for changes. If you see
changes, discontinue the use of this product immediately and consult with your clinician. A
key clinical indicator of tissue breakdown is skin redness. If your skin develops redness,
discontinue the use of this product immediately and consult your clinician. Be especially
careful to inspect the areas related to the bony prominences of the pelvis such as your
trochanters and ischial tuberosities.
WARNING: Failure to perform proper skin inspection or continuing to use a cushion
after skin changes are present can affect your skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or
death.
F. General Warnings
WARNING: Do not use or install this cushion without first reading and understanding
this manual. Please contact your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician if you
are unable to understand the Warnings and Instructions. Failure to do so could result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING: The adhesive on hook and loop closures (commonly known as "Velcro") may
degrade over time and reduce its ability to secure the cushion. This could cause you to
fall from your wheelchair, resulting in serious injury.
WARNING: The installation of a cushion on a wheelchair could affect the center of
gravity of the wheelchair. Changes in your center of gravity may affect your stability in
your wheelchair, resulting in tipping over or falling from your wheelchair which may
result in serious injury. Always review the instructions for use of your wheelchair to see if
changes to the wheelchair may be needed to provide sufficient stability after adding a
cushion.
WARNING: The integrity of your skin can be effected by many aspects of your daily life
and medical condition, including the use of this product. Be sure to follow any skin care
regimens established by your clinician. Consumers of this product should make sure
their skin is inspected routinely for changes as directed by their clinician. Failure to do
so could result in serious injury or death.

6
G. Protecting Your Cushion
Avoid prolonged exposure to adverse environmental conditions. This may include excessive
exposure to sunlight and temperatures, either hot or cold. This can result in the degradation of
the performance of your cushions.
WARNING: Failure to protect your cushion may lead to changes that can affect your
skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or death.
Although your cushion has been manufactured in accordance with its labeled flammability
standards, you should avoid exposing your cushion to open flames or extreme heat sources
such as a burning cigarette. This may cause your cushion to ignite or emit harmful gases.
Failure to protect your cushion from extreme heat may cause your cushion to ignite or
emit harmful gases, resulting in serious injury or death.
H. Obstructions
To ensure your cushion works effectively, avoid placing obstructions between your bottom and
your cushion. Obstructions may include, but are not limited to:
• Keys or other items in pockets
• Lift slings
• Underpads or Chucks
Obstructions will lessen the effectiveness of the product, potentially causing pressure or high
pressure points.
WARNING: Pressure points can affect your skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or
death.
I. Cover Orientation
Your cushion was designed to be sat on in a specific orientation and it must be placed
properly in your wheelchair with the cover oriented correctly with the foam base. It is labeled
to indicate the proper orientation.
WARNING: Failure to properly orient the cushion and cover can affect your skin
integrity, resulting in serious injury or death.

Set-Up, Adjustment and Care
A. Fitting Your Cushion and Wheelchair
1. Initial Cushion Set-Up Without User in Seated Position
• In determining the right cushion for you, ensure the dimensions are appropriate
considering the width and length of your wheelchair sling or seat pan. If you are unsure,
consult your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician.
• Place the cushion in the chair with the material identification tags facing the rear of the
chair and the cushion handle oriented toward the front of the chair. The non-skid
texture should be facing the seat sling or seat pan on your wheelchair.
• It is important that during normal use the cushion is retained in the wheelchair. It is also
important that the cushion is not displaced during transfers that might cause you to slip
or fall. Your cushion has hook and loop closures and a non-skid bottom to facilitate
retention in a wheelchair. Ensure the cushion hook and loop closures align and mate
with the wheelchair hook and loop closures. If your wheelchair sling or seat pan does
not have hook and loop closures, or they do not align with the cushion, you should
consult your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician to ensure the cushion is
appropriate.
WARNING: Failure to properly select a cushion that fits your wheelchair can affect your
skin integrity which can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Failure to properly orient the cushion and cover can affect your skin integrity
which can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Failure to properly select the cushion and cover that can be retained in the
wheelchair can cause you to fall from your wheelchair, resulting in serious injury.
WARNING: Avoid using the cushion on overly stretched seat sling upholstery. Stretched
upholstery does not provide adequate support for the cushion and improper positioning
may result. This can affect your skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or death.

A. Fitting Your Cushion and Wheelchair (Continued)
2. Wheelchair Set-Up and Adjustment for your Cushion
a. Ensure hips are placed properly in the back of the wheelchair and cushion as
directed by your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician.
b. Ensure your footrests are adjusted to the proper height, as directed by your autho-
rized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician.
c. Ensure your back support is properly positioned and adjusted for your seated pos-
ture, as directed by your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your clinician.
WARNING: Failure to ensure that the wheelchair is properly adjusted for use with the
cushion can affect your skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or death.
B. Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance may help extend the life of your cushion. You should
inspect your cushion weekly. During cleaning, component inspection is recommended.
1. Check Cover for Tears and Excessive Wear
a. Remove cover and check for abnormalities (inside and out).
b. Check the foam base for breakdown or degradation.
a. Tears deeper than .25" (6.35 mm)
b. Loose granules of foam
c. Permanent changes to the unloaded foam shape, such as flattening.
c. Inspect the fluid bladder for tears or punctures. Inspect the area around the bladder
and the cover for the presence of a thick, white fluid which will indicate the presence
of a leak.
WARNING: If you find any abnormalities, such as the foam breaking down, discontinue
the use of this product immediately and consult with your authorized Ki Mobility supplier
or clinician. Failure to do so can affect your skin integrity, resulting in serious injury or
death.

9
C. Cleaning
WARNING: Cleaning, deodorizing and sanitizing, even using the method described here,
can accelerate the natural degradation of the foam. The effect will vary depending on
the chemicals used. Verify that the degradation has not progressed to the point the
cushion should not be used, according to the instructions for use provided with the
product, failure to do so can result in serious injury.
1. Cleaning the Cover
NOTE: Drying with heat may cause shrinking that affects the covers fit and function.
a. Remove the cover from the foam base and zip closed.
b. Machine wash in hot water and tumble dry - no heat. Do not iron. Note - Do not dry
clean covers or use industrial washers and dryers to clean cover. Do not steam auto-
clave. Do not bleach.
c. To refit cover after washing, fit cover back over foam base. Ensure the back of the
cover matches up to the back of the foam base. Note - If utilized in an institutional
setting, write the residents name with a permanent marker on the content label of
the cover. This will ensure the return of the correct cover to its matching cushion
after washing.
2. Cleaning or Deodorizing the Foam Base
NOTE: Do not immerse your foam base in any solution.
a. Fill a spray bottle with detergent or deodorizer. Verify that the labeling for the manu-
facturer of the detergent or deodorizing indicates it is appropriate for this use. Follow
the manufacturer’s labeling for proper solution concentration and use.
b. Lay the foam base in the bathtub or on a surface that can get wet.
c. Spray the entire surface of the foam base including the sides. Flip it over and repeat
on the bottom. Once you’ve finished spraying, let the solution set for 20 to 30 min-
utes.
d. Wipe the solution off with a damp washcloth. Do not spray with water.
e. Allow the material to air dry but avoid direct sunlight. Depending on how wet your
foam base is, it may take 24 hours to several days to completely dry. Verify that no
solution remains in the foam base before using.

f. Allow the material to air dry but avoid direct sunlight. Depending on how wet your
foam base is, it may take 24 hours to several days to completely dry. Verify that no
solution remains in the foam base before using.
4. Cleaning or Deodorizing Fluid Pads
NOTE: Never immerse the fluid pads in any solution. Never clean with abrasive
materials.
a. Remove the cover from the foam base.
b. Remove fluid pads from the inner cover.
c. Fill a spray bottle with detergent or deodorizer. Verify that the labeling for the manu-
facturer of the detergent or deodorizer indicates that it is appropriate for this use.
Follow the manufacturer’s labeling for proper solution concentration and use.
d. Spray and wipe the bladders with a clean dry cloth.
e. Make sure the bladders are completely dry before reassembly.

11
D. Reassembling Your Axiom Cushion After Cleaning
WARNING: Place the Axiom AS and Axiom ASP fluid insert into the well of the cushion
base ensuring position is aligned. A misalignment or creation of an edge could cause an
unwanted pressure point, which could lead to injury.
1. After Proper Cleaning and Maintenance
a. Install the trochanteric fluid inserts by mating the hook and loop closure sections
from the fluid insert onto the hook and loop closure of the foam base as shown in
image below.
b. Install the ischial fluid insert by mating the hook and loop closure sections from the
fluid insert onto the hook and loop closure of the foam base as show in image below.
c. Reinstall the reservoir plugs so that the end of the plug is flush with the front of the
cushion.
2. Install base with fluid insert into the outer cover.
3. Close the zipper on your cushion ensuring that the zipper-pull ends up closed with the pull
tucked into the zipper pocket in the cover.

12
E. Axiom AS and Axiom ASP - Bottoming Out
WARNING: If bottoming out is detected or you are unsure whether you are bottoming,
discontinue the use of this product immediately and consult with your authorized Ki
Mobility supplier or your clinician. Failure to do so can affect your skin integrity, resulting
in serious injury or death.
Bottoming out may occur on an Axiom AS or Axiom ASP cushion if you displace all the fluid
underneath your pelvic bones or buttocks, which would leave you sitting on the foam base. It
sometimes occurs on very thin individuals, people using recliner wheelchairs, people who
have lost weight or have other changes in body size or shape, or people who slouch when
sitting.
To check for bottoming out, first make sure all other instructions for fitting the cushion and
wheelchair are complete. Then sit on the cushion, with the cover on for five to ten minutes.
Transfer up and off the cushion (or have someone help you transfer), trying not to disturb the
fluid underneath you. Fold the back portion of the cover forward over the front, exposing the
fluid pad. Push down in the depressions on the pad where your ischial tuberosities (seat
bones) and coccyx (tailbone) were. You should have to push through at least .5" (12.5 mm) of
fluid before you feel the firm cushion base below.
Changes to the cushion and changes to your body occur over time and you should check for
bottoming out at least monthly.

de su piel puede verse afectada por muchos aspectos de su vida diaria y su condición
médica, incluyendo el uso de este producto. Asegúrese de seguir los regímenes de cuidado
de la piel establecidos por su médico.
Los consumidores de este producto deben asegurarse de que su piel sea inspeccionada a
diario a fin de detectar cambios. Si ve cambios, suspenda el uso de este producto
inmediatamente y consulte a su médico. Un indicador clínico clave de la descomposición del
tejido es el enrojecimiento de la piel. Si su piel sufre enrojecimiento, suspenda el uso de este
producto inmediatamente y consulte a su médico. Tenga especial cuidado de inspeccionar las
áreas relacionadas con las prominencias óseas de la pelvis, tales como los trocánteres y las
tuberosidades isquiales.

de uso de su silla de ruedas para saber si puede ser necesario hacerle cambios a fin de
garantizar suficiente estabilidad después de añadir un cojín.
ADVERTENCIA: La integridad de su piel puede verse afectada por muchos aspectos de
su vida diaria y su trastorno médico, incluyendo el uso de este producto. Asegúrese de
seguir los regímenes de cuidado de la piel establecidos por su médico. Los usuarios de
este producto deben exigir que su piel sea controlada periódicamente a fin de detectar
cambios según las indicaciones de su médico. De no hacerlo, podría sufrir lesiones
graves o la muerte.
