Electromagnetic Compatibility (Emc); Environmental Protection; Service Information - Arjohuntleigh Nimbus 3 Mode D'emploi

• Placing extra layers between the patient and the mattress potentially reduces the benefits
provided by the mattress and should be avoided or kept to a minimum. As part of sensible
pressure area care, it is advisable to avoid wearing clothing which may cause areas of
localised high pressure due to creases, seams, etc. Placing objects in pockets should be
avoided for the same reason.
• Do not expose the system, especially the mattress, to naked flames, such as cigarettes,
etc.
• In the event of a fire, a leak in the seat or mattress could propagate the fire.
• Do not store the system in direct sunlight.
• Do not use phenol-based solutions to clean the system.
• Make sure the system is clean and dry prior to use or storage.
• Never use sharp objects or electrically heated under blankets on or under the system.
• Store the pump and mattress in the protective bags supplied.
