SAFETY SUMMARY
The following recommendations are made for the safe
use of the CareGuard APP Alternating Pressure Pump
and Pad:
WARNING
DO NOT use this equipment without first reading
and understanding this instruction sheet. If you
are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions,
and Instructions, contact your Invacare dealer
or Invacare Account Services at 1-800-333-6900
before attempting to use this equipment - other-
wise, injury or damage may occur.
DO NOT use the pad near open flame or while
smoking, otherwise, injury may result.
Inspect power cord, plug, or air hoses of the
CareGuard APP Alternating Pressure Pump for
breaks, tears, or kinks. If damage is found, DO
NOT use.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the round grounding prong from any plug used
with or for Invacare products. Some devices are
equipped with three-prong (grounding) plugs for
protection against possible shock hazards. Where
a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is
the personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to contact a qualified electrician and
have the two-prong receptacle replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong wall recep-
tacle in accordance with the National Electrical
Code. If you must use an extension cord, use
ONLY a three-wire extension cord having the
same or higher electrical rating as the device
being connected.
Ensure that the pad is brought up to room tem-
perature before unfolding.
DO NOT place hot objects such as heating pads
on top of the pad. This may weaken the pad
material and may cause injury.
2. Place pad on top of bed mattress.
NOTE: Air chamber openings should be at bed end.
3. Install end flaps over mattress corners to secure pad.
