Alarms and diagnostics:
The control unit features an audio visual
alarm diagnostic which will activate if there
is a malfunction.
If the left button flashes and alarms, it
indicates that there is a problem with the mattress or an air leak to the
control unit. If the right button flashes and alarms, it indicates that there
is an electrical malfunction or problem within the control unit itself.
Both these audio alarms can be muted by pressing the indicator which is
flashing. This will mute the alarm for 20 minutes. If the malfunction has
not been resolved however, the alarm will re-activate.
For more information on alarms and faults with the system, please see the
