INTRODUCTION
This Owner’s Manual was designed to assist both caregivers and patients
when using the JAY Dermafloat Low Air Loss Therapy System. It can be
used as a continual information resource and we suggest that you keep it
handy to answer most of the questions that you may have regarding the set
up, cleaning and routine maintenance of the system.
GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Jay LAL 1000 Series is a portable low air loss mattress replacement
designed to economically provide therapeutic benefit to patients suffering
from, or at risk of, developing pressure ulcers. The system, consisting of a
Master Control Unit, an Air Flotation Mattress and a Therapeutic Comforter,
is designed to provide unsurpassed wound care therapy and patient comfort.
The controller is as simple to use, as it is compact. Plug it in and dial the
appropriate pressure level. Simple! With a side mounted Quick Disconnect
for CPR, the Jay LAL 1000 Series offers basic reliable “true low air loss”
therapy previously available in only more complicated and more expensive
systems.
The Standard Low Air Loss Mattress base consists of twenty transverse
air cushions. Each is over eight inches tall inflated height and spatially
oriented above a two inch convoluted foam base. The air cushion material is
a low shear nylon, which aids in reducing the chance of skin breakdown.
The air cushions are designed with orifices to provide continuous low air
loss therapy to aid in the prevention of skin maceration.
The Homecare Low Air Loss Mattress consists of five independent zones
connected by a single top membrane. The membrane is perforated to
provide continuous low air loss therapy to aid in the prevention of skin
maceration.

Covering the entire mattress assembly is a low friction (i.e. low shear
producing) 70-denier nylon comforter. The bottom surface of the comforter
is coated with a vapor permeable polyurethane film. This coating creates a
monolithic, osmotic membrane impermeable to liquids, air, and bacteria
though still permeable to water vapor.
Quilted onto the base of the comforter is a spun bonded polyester fiberfill,
which exhibits less frictional resistance to nylon than that of the patient’s
skin. The significance of this is that when the patient moves, the comforter
tends to move relative to the air cushions rather than relative to the patient.
Wounds, which can be exacerbated by shearing are in this manner
significantly minimized, if not prevented. A secondary feature of this
quilting is that it acts to provide a diffusion layer by with the water vapor can
be drawn away from the patient. Concentrations of moisture will diffuse
throughout, the comforter thus resulting in more efficient evaporation and
subsequent reduced skin maceration.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS &WARNINGS
1. To avoid damaging your system, be sure the power available at your
location matches the power call out on the rear of the Master Control
Unit (i.e. 110V Domestic; 230V European).
2. To avoid electric shock, always plug the Master Control Unit into a
properly ground power source.
3. Do not spill food or liquids into the Master Control Unit. If a spillage
does occur, turn off the unit, disconnect it from its power supply and
allow at least 24 hours for drying.
4. Do not insert items into any openings of the Master Control Unit.
Doing so may cause fire or electrical shock by shorting internal
components.
5. Do not block the pump intake on the enclosure. Keep unit away from
radiators or other heat sources.
6. Be sure nothing is placed on the power cable and ensure it is not located
where it can be stepped on or tripped over.
7. Do not attempt to service the Master Control Unit except as explained in
this guide. Always follow installation and servicing instructions closely.
WARNING: The Master Control Unit housing, should only be
opened by qualified technical personnel. Before
opening the housing, make sure the unit is turned off
and unplugged from its power source.
WARNING: The patient should never be unsupervised when the
bedrails are in the down position. Leaving the patient
unsupervised with the bed rails in the down position
may increase the likelihood of falls, which may result in
patient injury or death.

6
WARNING: Careful consideration should be made to combine Bed,
Bed Rails and Mattress configuration to account for
patient factors including: cognitive abilities, locomotive
abilities and any other such circumstances. Failure to
consider these factors, in light of an institution’s anti-
entrapment and restraint-free policies, may result in
patient injury or death.
WARNING: When using Bed Rails, ensure that gaps and potential
entrapment hazards are adequately reduced. Failure
to do so may result in patient injury or death.
DANGER
--EXPLOSION HAZARD--
DO NOT USE IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE
ANESTHETICS
Caution: Do not use in the presence of smoking materials or open
flame. Air flowing through the air mattress will support
combustion.
Risk of electric shock, do not remove back. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.
Warning: Never drop or insert any object into any
opening of the master control unit.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPER USE
(Numbers in parentheses refer to Mattress and Bed Diagrams on page 9.)
1. Remove mattress from bed frame (1).
2. Replace mattress with the Jay LAL 1100 Series Standard Low Air
Loss (2) or Homecare Low Air Loss Mattress. Make sure to orient
mattress so the air tubing (3) exits the mattress at the foot of the bed.
3. Loop each of the four black nylon straps (4) to the bed frame and secure
with the D-Rings provided.
4. Suspend control unit from the footboard using the two hooks located on
the back of the unit as shown (5). If no footboard exists, place unit on a
flat surface near the foot end of the bed. (Be careful not to position the
unit on the floor in such a manner that it may become a hazard to foot
traffic.)
5. Connect the free end of the tubing (3) to the respective mating connector
located on the side of the pump (6). This “quick connect” fitting can be
secured by simply mating the two ends together in a linear but opposing
direction. The connector tube for the Homecare Low Air Loss
Mattress must be attached to the mattress manifold. Simply join the
tube onto the clear tube receptacle.
6. Check that the hose is secure by gently pulling. Ensure the air hose is
not kinked or tucked under the mattress.
7. Cover Jay LAL 1100 Series Standard Low Air Loss Mattress with
the Therapeutic Low-Shear comforter and attach to the mattress D-rings
provided. (Verify comforter is loosely fitting so as not to "hammock"
patient above the mattress. If comforter appears tight verify ICU size
sheet is not covering a standard sized mattress).
8. Carefully plug power cord into a properly grounded outlet. Unit will
enter “STANDBY” mode when dial is set to 0. Settings greater than 1
will automatically initiate the blower operation.

8
9. Place patient on the Low Air Loss Mattress. (NOTE: The control unit
can inflate the mattress with the patient laying on it.) To assist in-
patient ingress/egress as well as normal nursing procedure, the Low Air
Loss Mattress can be inflated to maximum by fully rotating the comfort
adjust dial in a clockwise direction.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of skin break down, MAX Inflate should not
be maintained for greater than 30 minutes. At MAX, the inflation
pressure will not exceed 32 mmHg.
10. For proper inflation and patient comfort, adjust pressure by rotating dial
initially to MAX. After maximum inflation has been attained,
sequentially reduce the pressure setting by turning knob counter-
clockwise until approximately four-finger clearance exists between the
underlying foam and the patient’s sacral area.
11. For mattress deflation when CPR is needed, disconnect the hose
connector from the controller. Mattress will be fully deflated in less
than 15 seconds.

WARNINGS ON PAGES 5 & 6 BEFORE USE.
