through a system initialization routine for a few seconds and enter “STANDBY” (amber LED on) mode. 
 

•

  If the unit is in STANDBY mode with amber LED on, press the POWER button to turn the control unit on.   

 

•

  If the power comes on after a power outage, the control unit will go through its system initialization routine 

for few seconds and then resume the desired function.

•

  Press the MAX INFLATE button and the unit will rapidly inflate the mattress at maximum flow.

mattress). In this mode the entire mattress will be pressurized to 35 ± 5 mmHg.
