•
Do not use the device if the configuration is incomplete or any of its components is
broken, worn or contaminated. Worn, missing and broken parts must be replaced
and contaminated once cleaned.
• Do not modify the mattress system and do not connect the mattress system to other
devices without the manufacturer’s permission. Unauthorised modifications and con
-
nections may pose a danger to the user of the mattress system.
• The user is responsible for any and all consequences of the use of the device in a
manner inconsistent with its intended purpose or resulting from maintenance, repair
or modification carried out by a party other than Carital
®
service.
• Use only original Carital
®
spare parts and accessories.
• The temperature of the controller may have decreased or increased during transport
beyond the limits of the allowable operating temperatures. Do not use the controller
before it has been at room temperature (~ +20°C) for at least two hours. This time
is required for all components of the controller to reach the normal recommended
operating temperature of +10 – +35°C.
• Verify that the variant of the controller corresponds to the variant of the cells by
checking the REF field on the controller and the cell ID label.
• Ensure that the settings of the device do not change unintentionally, for example
because of children or pets. If necessary and the operating environment poses a
risk of inadvertent changes of control operating modes, use the keypad lock in the
controller.
• A twisted air tube or controller power cable around the neck or head may result in
suffocation. Make sure that the air tubes and the controller’s power cable cannot
twist around the head or neck.
• Place the controller’s power cable in such a way that it cannot be clamped in any
situation, for example by the sides or folding parts of the bed.
• The power cable of the controller must always be plugged into the outlet, excluding
short patient transports or similar situations.
• To maintain battery performance, connect the controller to AC power continuously
for 12 hours at least every three (3) months.
• Always place the controller in such a way that it can easily be disconnected from
the mains. Ensure that the control panel and connectors of the controller are always
accessible.
• If the Sixtube connector of the air tube system is disconnected from the controller,
the cells will deflate.
• Never use the mattress system without a cover on the cells.
• Do not use extra bed sheets, pillows or heavy positioning pillows on the mattress
system.
