The mattress design allows for it to be profiled in an upright position. Pressure will be
increased when the patient is sitting in an upright position but depending on patient
comfort and clinical judgement the comfort setting may need to be changed.
When the backrest travels beyond an angle of 20° the screen on the control interface
advises that the backrest has been raised.

advised.
Rapid deflation of the mattress may be required for emergency treatment or system
deflation. The CPR dial is located at the foot end of the mattress.
Rotate the CPR dial to the open position, once done the entire system will rapidly
deflate.
To re-inflate turn the CPR dial to the closed position. Wait for the mattress system to
reach optimal pressure prior to a return to normal use.
