5.1
Function
The mattress system independently and
without manual adjustment controls the inner
pressure of the mattress according to the
weight, height, and position of the user. No
manual action needs to be performed to adjust
the inner pressure of the mattress. This
function works as follows:
1. At start-up, automatic setting of the inner
pressure of the mattress is always carried out
according to the weight and height of the user.
2. If the user moves noticeably or changes their
position, the system will independently control
the inner pressure of the mattress.
3. The system performs an automatic setting at
fixed intervals even if no significant changes
have occurred.
After automatic setting of the mattress inner
pressure, the system returns to the previously
selected program. At start-up, Pulsating Mode is
always pre-set.
5.2
Programs
There are three programs to choose from:
Constant low pressure (CLP)
means that the air
pressure in all of the air cells is the same in the
whole mattress.
Alternating mode
means that the air pressure in
the air cells are different and alternates
regularly after chosen cycle periods.
Pulsating mode
combinates CLP with the
alternating function.
Chose program by pushing the button for the
program. We recommend the Pulsating mode
which is also the preset mode.
1. Constant low pressure mode (CLP)
No cycle period is needed.
2
.
Alternating mode.
The cycle period
can be changed according to the user
needs 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.
3. Pulsating mode.
The cycle period
can be changed according to the user
needs and requirements. The longer
the cycle period, the slower the alternations.
We recommend a basic setting of 10 minutes.
5.3
Maximum pressure (caring mode)
With this function, the entire
mattress is inflated and provides
firmed support. This function reverts
to the previous setting after 20
minutes. The function should be used when
caring the user, shifting the user’s position, or
moving the user in or out of bed.
5.4
Panel lock
Press the Panel Lock button to lock or
unlock the control panel. The button
indicates when the panel 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 button for 2 seconds.
5.5
Comfort settings
The pressure can be
increased in two
steps depending on
the user’s comfort
requirements. This increase is made based on
the automatic setting in 5.1.
The selected setting is shown by a green light.
5.6
Hand check (function control)
Hand check is performed to ensure that the
mattress system works properly. Hand check
should be performed regularly; for CuroCell® A4,
we recommend once per work shift as well as
after installation of the system.
Note!
•
When only parts of the mattress are
under load, for example, in the case of
amputees – it may be necessary to raise
the setting using the comfort settings.
