MAINTENANCE TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Power is not ON Incomplete Inflation/ Low pressure No air produced from some air outlets of the air tube connector Mattress seems not alternating Slow air flow Solution Check if the plug is connected to mains. Check if there is any blown fuse. Pressure setting might be inadequate for the patient, adjust pressure to higher level and wait for few minutes. Check if the air tubes are well connected or if there is any twist or leakage. This is normal during alternating or pitch mode. Air outlets take turns to produce air during preset cycle time. Wait for a complete alternating cycle, 12 minutes. Check tubing connection inside mattress are well connected. A dirty filter may decrease the air flow. If the air flow is constantly low, contact your local agent/ dealer to change the filter inside the pump. If your questions can t be answered with above information, it might require a technician to take care the problem. Please contact your local dealer directly. 12.
