direction of travel denoted by the arrow on the outer shell. Incorrect positioning of the patient may cause injury
during transport.

place a baby
directly onto the printed side of the TransWarmer mattress.
Section 6.5 - Operating Vacuum Mattress
Check to see that the Vacuum Mattress valve is at the baby’s feet. Valve should be open with the long and short
tubing sections engaged (black “O” ring hidden).
Check to see that the baby is in the desired position for transport.
Place vacuum source into short tubing section on Vacuum Mattress valve and slowly suction air from the mattress
while hand shaping the mattress around the baby. As air is removed, the Vacuum Mattress acts as a positioning
and retaining shell for the baby.
Once the Vacuum Mattress is in the desired position, remove the vacuum source and close the mattress valve by
depressing the grey tab and disengaging the long and short tubing sections. Once disengaged, the short tube’s
black “O” ring is visible.
