and therapy is provided. The automatic default comfort setting is MEDIUM (with the exception
of the QUATTRO
®
ACUTE PAEDIATRIC mattress, which defaults to SOFT). However, if the
patient prefers a firmer or softer mattress, increase or decrease the comfort control setting
accordingly using the UP and DOWN arrow buttons (SOFT/MEDIUM/FIRM). The comfort setting
is shown on the display screen. Check periodically to ensure patient support and comfort.
DATA
Pressing the DATA button at any time switches the display into DATA mode. Use the
up and down arrow buttons to scroll through the product data and user information
set. Pressing the DATA button again returns the display to the previous mode.
NB. Used for accessing information only, does not affect mode of operation.
MUTE/UNLOCK
Press to silence the sounder and to clear the message from the display screen. The
power unit will automatically lock 2 minutes after the last button operation when
running to prevent the inadvertent operation of button functions (except MUTE), as indicated
by on the display screen. Press and hold the MUTE/UNLOCK button until the power unit
beeps if further button operation is needed (i.e. comfort setting). The power unit will lock
again 2 minutes after the last button operation.
NB. After power failure/switching the power off, pressing MUTE cancels the system's previous
settings. When power returns the default setting of ACTIVE mode, MEDIUM comfort setting
is invoked. (Note that previous settings are automatically cancelled if the duration between
switch off and switch on is greater than 12 seconds. If power returns before a period of 12
seconds has passed and the MUTE button has not been pressed, the system will return to
the previous mode of operation.)
MAX. INFLATE
Necessary for some nursing procedures, the MAX INFLATE mode inflates the
mattress to maximum static pressure for a period of 15 minutes. After pressing
the MAX INFLATE button to inflate mattress, the system displays 'PLEASE WAIT' followed by
'READY' and a 5 second audible tone when maximum pressure is achieved and 'MAX INFLATE'
is shown on the display screen. After 15 minutes the system automatically returns to the
Active mode of operation.
