2.3 Control unit functions – touchscreen
2.3.1. Automatic setting (1)
The mattress system regulates the mattress’s
internal pressure independently and without
manual adjustment to different values based on the user’s
weight and position. No manual action is required to affect
the internal pressure of the mattress. This function works in
the following three ways:
1. The system performs an automatic setting when the
system has been started.
2. The system itself will start this function if any significant
changes occur during use.
3. The system performs an automatic setting at fixed
intervals even if no significant changes have occurred.
Once automatic setting is complete, the system will revert to
the previously used program. At first start‐up, the setting is
the basic setting of Pulsating mode, 10 minutes.
2.3.2. Comfort settings (2)
The pressure can be increased in two steps de‐
pending on the user’s comfort requirements. This
increase is done based on the automatic
setting performed by the control unit. (The control
unit automatically sets the optimised pressure for the user.)
2.3.3. Programs (3)
Three programs are available. Press the button to switch
between programs.
1. Alternating mode.
Here, the pressure
alternates between the cells. The cycle period
can be changed according to the user’s wishes
and requirements. Choose between 10, 15, 20 or
25 minutes. The longer the cycle period, the
slower the alternations. We recommend a basic setting of 10
minutes.
2. Pulsating mode.
A comfort mode that
combines Constant low pressure with
Alternating mode. The cycle period can be
changed according to the user’s wishes and
requirements. The longer the cycle period, the slower the
alternations. We recommend a basic setting of 10 minutes.
3. Constant low pressure.
Here, the pressure
will be same in all cells. This is also called ‘low
pressure’.
2.3.4. Maximum pressure (Caring mode) (4)
With this function, the entire mattress is
inflated and provides fixed support. This
function automatically switches to the preced‐
ing setting after approx. 20 minutes. This function should be
used when nursing the user, shifting the user’s position or
moving the user in or out of bed.
2.3.5. Screen lock (5)
Press the Screen Lock button to lock or unlock the
screen. The display indicates when the screen has been
locked. The screen locks automatically if left untouched for
five minutes. This is to prevent the settings being changed
accidentally.
To unlock, press the padlock and confirm using
again.

Battery charging
NOTE:
To ensure optimum function and condition, the backup
battery should never be discharged completely. The battery
charges up when the control unit is operating. A fully charged
battery lasts for at least five hours.
If the control unit is left without operating for a long period,
the backup battery should be charged every six months for
maintenance purposes.
NOTE:
During battery operation, it is possible to select Constant low
pressure and Pulsating mode, but it is not possible to choose
the cycle period. The cycle period will be 20 minutes (or longer
if this was set before the transition to battery operation).
