Preparing the
System for Use
Installing the
Mattress
Remove the system from the packaging. You should
have the following items:
• Nimbus pump, with integral bed bracket.
• Mains power cable (pump).
• Nimbus 4 mattress replacement or
Nimbus Professional mattress replacement with
covers. Do not use the mattress without a cover.
• Tubeset.
1. Remove the conventional mattress from the bed
frame and check that there are no protruding bed
springs or sharp objects on the bed frame surface.

Heavily ridged bed baseboards may require special
considerations for correct system operation -
consult your ArjoHuntleigh sales office.
2. Unroll the mattress onto the bed base and make
sure that the CPR control is at the foot end, and the
CPR label is hanging freely.
3. Attach the mattress to the bed frame using the new
fastener straps, as shown. These eight fastener
straps can be moved to any of the 10 anchor points
on the base of the mattress, to allow for attaching
the mattress to different types of bed frame.

If the bed has divided sections for independent
elevation of a patient's head and/or knees, attach the
mattress to the movable parts of the bed frame only.

Secure drag handles by fastening them to the base
cover.
4. To make sure that the pressure relieving properties
are not impaired, the mattress cover must not be
pulled tight and covering sheets should fit loosely.
