AIR CONTROL SYSTEM CALIBRATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
DIRECT DRIVE TECHNOLOGY™
SOFTWARE
1.
Connect the air control system hoses to the bed, making certain that there is no weight on the bed other than sheets, pillows and comforters.
MAKE SURE THE AIR HOSES AIR STRAIGHT WITH NO KINKS OR BENDS.
2.
Connect both hand controls to the air control system.
3.
Plug the power cord into the air control system and then plug the cord into the wall outlet. A clicking noise will occur inside the air control system.
4.
The number
“4”
will display, then
“88”
will display on both of the remote controls and then the display on the hand controls will go dark.
5.
Pick up one of the hand controls (either one will work). Press and hold down the Memory button until the
“MEM”
on the display begins fl ashing.
6.
While continuing to press down the Memory button, push down both the Up and Down arrows so that you are pressing down all three buttons at the
same time.
7.
Stop pressing only the Memory button.
8.
Then stop pressing the Up and Down arrow buttons.
9.
The hand controls will display the number
“4“
and then will display the
“
[ ]
”
symbol and then the calibration routine will begin.
10.
The air control system will now automatically calibrate itself to your mattress. The routine will take approximately 3 to 4 minutes and
involves several automated air control system and dump cycles which you will hear. You do not need to do anything while the calibration routine is
running.
11.
The calibration routine will run for both sides of the mattress even though you started the routine using one of the hand controls.
12.
When the calibration routine is fi nished , both hand controls will display a number that is the actual pressure in that chamber and if no command is
entered into the remote the display will go dark after 30 seconds. Your system is now calibrated to your bed and ready for you to enjoy.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT YOU DO NOT PLACE ANY WEIGHT ON THE MATTRESS DURING THE CALIBRATION ROUTINE!
*** An air control system which has been calibrated for your mattress type and size will assure the most accurate performance. The calibration routine can
be rerun at any time by repeating the steps above. It is
NOT
necessary to recalibrate your pump if it is unplugged ***
EASY STEPS TO
COMFORT
1.
Stand beside your bed and infl ate it to full (press
“FULL”
button).
2.
Lie on your bed in your normal sleeping position and adjust the pressure up or down until it feels good to you.
3.
Sleep on your bed for a minimum of seven days (or longer) without changing pressure settings.
4.
After seven days you may adjust the pressure up or down as needed. Again, commit to sleeping at this pressure for seven additional days.
5.
Repeat step #4 if needed. By this time you should be at your optimum pressure setting.
FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
}
CAN ONE HAND CONTROL BE USED TO CONTROL BOTH SIDES OF THE BED?
No, each side has its own hand control.
}
CAN BOTH SIDES OF THE BED BE ADJUSTED AT THE SAME TIME?
No, the system can only execute one command at a time. If both hand controls are used simultaneously, one hand control will fl ash, signaling that the
system is busy. When the fi rst command is fi nished, a new command may be sent.
}
WILL THE BED GO FLAT IF THE SYSTEM IS UNPLUGGED?
No, the bed will continue to hold air if it is not connected to electricity. When electricity is restored, the valves will open and some of the air will be lost.
}
WHY IS THE BED AT MAXIMUM PRESSURE WHEN I LAY ON IT, BUT SEEM LESS FULL WHEN I STAND UP?
The pressure is aff ected by the amount of weight applied to the bed. If you are sitting or laying on the bed while it is infl ating, the added pressure caused by
your weight will cause the system to stop pumping sooner than if there were no weight on the bed. To obtain maximum infl ation, the bed should be fi lled
to 99 before any weight is put on the bed.
}
WHY DIDN’T THE AIR CONTROL SYSTEM RESPOND WHEN A COMMAND WAS SENT?
There could be several reasons. First, the desired pressure may already exist. If so, the air control system would sense that and remain dormant. Second, the
air control system may have responded and been too silent to hear, or the change too slight to be felt. There are 89 separate settings for each side of the bed
and slight changes in the target number are too subtle to feel.
}
WHAT IS THE CLICKING NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE SYSTEM?
This sound may be heard when the air control system is defl ating. It is normal and means the defl ation mechanism is working properly.
}
WHAT SHOULD I DO IF THE HAND CONTROL DISPLAY DOESN’T LIGHT, IS “FROZEN”, OR WON’T CONTROL THE
AIR CONTROL SYSTEM?
Check the connection of the hand control cable into the side of the air control system; unplug it, wait 15 seconds then plug it in again. If that doesn’t resolve
the problem, unplug both pendants and then the unit from the wall, wait 2 minutes, reconnect both hand controls to the air control system, and fi nally the
air control system to the wall.
