3.0 Description

The SC525 Sof•Care* Inflator is designed for the intermittent operation required to fill the
SC400 series and OR400 series Sof•Care* Cushions.
A power cord with mains terminations is not included with the inflator. A separate
power cord selected for the appropriate mains connection is required to operate this
device. Refer to the parts list (figure 3, section 9) for power cords available from Gaymar.
To retain a power cord when the inflator is stored, use the integral strap attached to the
inflator housing.

4.0 Operation

1. Connect a power cord to the inflator.
2. Connect the power cord to the mains.
3. Insert the inflator into the air valve of the Sof•Care* cushion.
4. Switch the inflator on for:
• 60 seconds (SC400 series cushions);
• 30 seconds (OR400 series cushions).
5. Remove and switch off the inflator. Quickly replace and tighten the Sof•Care*
cushion valve cap.
6. Perform a HAND CHECK:
Place hand under the Bed Cushion, beneath the patient's buttocks. Hand must be
positioned with palm up and fingers flat. (If fingers are flexed, the HAND CHECK will
be misleading.) If patient does not
touch hand, the Bed Cushion does not
require reinflation. If patient does touch
hand, reinflate until patient's buttocks
no longer touches hand.
Perform the HAND CHECK every
8 hours and after each inflation.

5.0 Cleaning

After unplugging the inflator from the mains, clean the housing with a mild detergent and
damp cloth. Wipe dry before operating.
