Pump Indicators The pump front panel has the following indicators:
ON / RESET ALARM The green ON / RESET ALARM indicator below the
POWER switch is illuminated when the mains power is
connected and the pump switched on.
STATIC Mode The indicator on the STATIC button is illuminated when
Static mode has been selected for operation.
Alarm MUTE The indicator on the MUTE button is illuminated when
an audible alarm has been silenced.
The indicator will NOT be illuminated when a Power Fail alarm is muted.

being inflated.
The indicator will remain illuminated until the mattress
has been fully inflated. This may take up to 15 minutes.
HIGH PRESSURE The HIGH PRESSURE indicator is illuminated whenever
the pump detects high pressure within the mattress.
If this condition occurs, the air supply from the pump is
switched off until normal pressure is detected. After 2

is switched off and the air supply restarted.
LOW PRESSURE The LOW PRESSURE indicator is illuminated whenever
the pump detects low pressure within the mattress.
This may indicate that there is insufficient pressure to
support a patient or that the Transport control is turned

The
LOW PRESSURE indicator will be switched off
