IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS:
- Skin/soft tissue breakdown can occur due to a number of factors, which
vary by individual. Check skin frequently, at least once a day. Redness,
bruising, or darker areas (when compared to normal skin) may indicate
superficial or deep tissue injury and needs to be addressed. If there
is any discoloration to skin/soft tissue, STOP USE immediately. If the
discoloration does not disappear within 30 minutes after disuse,
immediately consult a healthcare professional.
- DO NOT use the cushion on top of, or in conjunction with, any other
products or materials, except as indicated in this manual. Using non-
compatible products or materials, whether inside or outside the cover:
1) may reduce or eliminate the benefits of the cushion, increasing the
risk to skin or to other soft tissue, and 2) may cause the individual to
become unstable and vulnerable to falling.
- DO NOT place obstructions between the individual and the cushion.
The cushion and the cover MUST be compatible sizes and MUST be
used as directed in this manual. Except for the compatible covers listed
in "Product Specifications" in this manual, placement of any items
between the individual and the cushion: 1) may reduce or eliminate
the benefits of the cushion, increasing the risk to skin or to other
soft tissue, and 2) may cause the individual to become unstable and
vulnerable to falling.
- DO NOT use this cushion as a water flotation device (e.g. a Life
Preserver). It will NOT support you in water.
- The cushion surface will acclimate to the surrounding temperature.
Take appropriate precautions, especially when the cushion will contact
unprotected skin.
- DO NOT expose the product to high heat, open flames, or hot ashes.
Testing or certification claims, including for flammability, may no
longer apply to this device when it is combined with other products or
materials. Check testing and certification claims for all products used in
combination with this device.
- Periodically, check components for wear and damage, and replace if
necessary. See "Troubleshooting".
- If you are unable to perform any tasks described in this manual, seek
assistance by contacting the clinician, equipment provider, distributor,
or Customer Support.
- Keep small components out of the reach of children and any individuals
who have a tendency to place inedible objects in their
mouths. Swallowing or inhalation may lead to serious injury
or death. IMMEDIATELY seek emergency medical assistance.
