There is a risk of injury or suffocation due to pressure caused
by a part of the body getting caught in the gap between the
product and a bed side-rail, etc.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
z
Do not apply a strong impact to the pump and cable con-
nectors, and do not allow a person’s weight to be applied
through their hips or knees.
There is a risk of an electric shock or fire due to damage or
deformation of the pump.
z
Do not apply a strong shock to the part connecting the
mattress and pump, and do not allow a person’s weight
to be applied through their hips or knees.
The coupling may become disconnected resulting in air leak-
age and the body pressure not being dispersed effectively.
z
Do not get the bed link cable caught in the movable parts
of the bed, run over them with the bed, apply excessive
force to them, or place a heavy object on them.
They may be damaged, resulting in an electric shock or fire.
Request repair (or replacement) of damaged cables.
z
Install electrical equipment so the bed link cable do not
get caught in the casters or movable parts of the bed.
Damage to the cables may cause electric shock or fire.
z
Do not drop the pump on the floor, hit it against a wall,
forcefully pull the cable connected to the pump, etc.
Doing so may cause an electric shock or fire due to damage.
z
Do not allow operation by a user, especially person
deemed incapable of understanding the operation (a
child aged 12 or under or a person with dementia).
Part of the body may get caught in a gap resulting in injury, or
the body pressure may not be dispersed effectively resulting
in pressure ulcers.
z
If emergency response such as cardiac massage is re-
quired, use the CPR function (see page 17).
Otherwise, immediate action cannot be taken and the symp-
toms may worsen.
z
Do not lean the product against a wall, etc.
There is a risk of an electric shock or fire due to the product
falling.
