nates, and the alarm sounds, when pressure level is lower  
than the selected pressure. If the low pressure indicator  
persistently illuminates inappropriately:  
1. Check to ensure all connections are properly and se-  
curely connected per installation instructions.  
2. Check for any leakage (tubes or connecting hoses). If  
necessary, contact your Graham-Field equipment pro-  
vider to replace any damaged tubes or hoses.

s
Caution: Place the device in a position where the care-  
giver and/or doctor can access it easily.  
5. Connect the mattress-pump air  
hose quick connector; ensure that  
the connector has clicked securely  
into place before continuing.  
s
Caution: Ensure that the air hoses are not kinked or  
tucked under the mattress.  
WARNING: Locate all cords so that they will not be  
stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to  
damage or stress.  
WARNING: Do not use a household extension cord if  
the electrical cord does not reach the power outlet.  
Use of an improper extension cord could result in  
fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must  
be used, use a three conductor cord with ground,  
properly wired, in good electrical condition, and keep  
it as short as possible.  
WARNING: Ensure that the local power voltage is  
appropriate for the pump unit.  
6. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical  
outlet.

Note: The mattress system will automatically enter Autofirm  
mode for the quickest inflation at set-up; initial inflation takes  
approximately twenty minutes.  
3. The pump will begin delivering air into the mattress.  
4. When the selected pressure level is reached, the pump  
will enter alternating mode. The mattress can then be  
adjusted to the desired pressure.  
5. Replace all sheets, blankets, and pillows on the bed.  
pressure adjustment  
Generally, a lighter patient will need a lower (softer) set-  
ting while a heavier patient will need a higher (firmer)  
setting, but pressure adjustment must ultimately be based  
on the patient's weight distribution. A short, stocky person  
may be the same weight as a tall, thin person, but their  
settings will not be the same. The mattress should be firm  
enough to support the patient, yet soft enough so the  
patient will sink down to eliminate pressure points. Initially  
inflate the mattress to maximum pressure. Then, when  
patient lies on the mattress, test the pressure by placing  
four fingers below the mattress under the patient's but-  
tock area; your fingers should just fit. If the fit is too loose,  
decrease the setting. If your fingers do not fit well, increase  
the setting two notches firmer. Wait ten minutes and then  
check again. You should only have to adjust this setting  
one time per patient. Please consult your physician for an  
appropriate setting.

general maIntenanCe  
1. Check main power cord for abrasion or excessive wear.  
2. Check mattress cover for signs of wear or damage. En-  
sure mattress cover and tubes are connected correctly.  
3. Check airflow from the air hose connector. The airflow  
should alternate between each connector every half-  
cycle time if it’s in alternating mode.  
4. Check the air hoses for any kink or break. For replace-  
ment, please contact your GF equipment provider.  
Fuse replacement  
tool needed: small screwdriver  
1. If you suspect a blown fuse, discon-
