WARNING

Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured
for use in conjunction with Invacare accessories. Accessories
designed by other manufacturers have not been tested by
Invacare and are not recommended for use with Invacare
products.
The introduction of certain third party products between
the mattress surface and the user may reduce or impede the
clinical effectiveness of this product.
'Third party products' may include, but are not limited to
items including under blankets, plastic sheets and sheepskins,
etc. Heated over blankets must only be used in consultation
with a suitably qualified healthcare professional, as an increase
in temperature can increase the risk of developing pressure
ulcers.

WARNING

Bed sheets must be loosely fitted, with creases smoothed out.
Care must always be taken to ensure that the support surface
in contact with the user is kept free from crumbs and other
food debris, and that drip cables, stents, and other foreign
objects do not become entrapped between the user and the
pressure reducing surface of the mattress, as this may result in
the development of pressure ulcers.
WARNING Risk of fire or explosion!

A cigarette can burn a hole in the bed surface and cause
damage to the mattress. Also, patient clothing, bed sheets, etc,
may be combustible and cause a fire. Failure to observe this
warning can result in a severe fire, property damage and cause
physical injury or death.
There is an explosion risk if used with flammable anesthetics.
There is a possible fire hazard when used with oxygen admi-
nistering equipment other than nasal mask or half bed tent
type.
▸ Do not smoke while using this device.
▸ An oxygen tent may not extend below mattress support
level.
