NOTE: Check all parts for shipping damage. In case of damage DO NOT
use. Contact Carrier/Sunrise for further instructions.
Sunrise Medical recommends that a clinician such as a doc-
tor or therapist experienced in seating and positioning be
consulted to determine if a JAY Ion Cushion is appropriate.
Cushions should only be installed by an authorized Sunrise
Medical supplier.
GENERAL WARNINGS
DO NOT install this equipment without first reading and
understanding this manual. If you are unable to understand
the Warnings, Cautions and Instructions, contact a qualified
clinician or supplier - otherwise injury or damage may occur.
Hook and Loop velcro should not come into prolonged con-
tact with moisture as this may degrade the adhesive and
lead to a failure of the velcro.
Installing a cushion on a wheelchair may affect the center of
gravity of the wheelchair and may cause the wheelchair to
tip backwards, potentially resulting in injury. Always assess
for the potential need for antitippers or amputee axle
adapter brackets to be added to the wheelchair to help
increase stability.

WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
Prior to prolonged sitting, any cushion should be tried for a
few hours at a time while a clinician inspects your skin to
ensure that red pressure spots are not developing. You
should regularly check for skin redness. The clinical indicator
for tissue breakdown is skin redness. If your skin develops
redness, discontinue the use of the cushion immediately and
see your doctor or therapist.
The JAY Ion cushion is designed to help reduce pressure. However,
no cushion can completely eliminate sitting pressure or prevent pres-
sure sores. The JAY Ion cushion is not a substitute for good skin care
including; proper diet, cleanliness, and regular pressure relief.
CAUTION– AVOID SHARP OBJECTS OR EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE HEAT OR
OPEN FLAME.
OBSTRUCTIONS: DO NOT place any obstructions
between the user and the cushion because it will reduce
product effectiveness.
COVER ORIENTATION: Product must be used with the
cushion cover facing up. If the cover is not used correctly it
may reduce or eliminate the cushion's benefits and could
increase risk to the skin and soft tissue.
MAXIMUM USER WEIGHT:
14" to 21" width = 300 lbs.
22" to 24" width = 500 lbs.
