• Installation:
  - Place the bubble pad flat on a base mattress, which should be on a bed frame. The inflation tubes should be towards the foot end so that they can be connected to the inflation nozzles on the pump.
  - Cover with a cotton sheet to avoid direct skin contact and reduce friction.

  - Connect the inflation tubes from the bubble pad to the pumps inflating nozzles. Make sure they are properly attached.
  Caution:
  - Make sure the inflation tubes are not kinked or tucked under the pad.
  - Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet with grounded AC power. If the power cord has a grounding wire with a grounding pin, then this three-wire plug must be plugged properly into an outlet and grounded

  - In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
• Cleaning:
  - In this section, we describe the procedures to clean and decontaminate the pump and bubble pad. It is important to follow these procedures before using the system on patients. The cleaning task is required at least once a week to maintain personal hygiene.
• Pump:
  - DO NOT immerse or soak the pump.
  - Check for external damage and move the pump to a cleaning area.
  - Place the pump on a work surface and spray or wipe the outside of the case with quaternary ammonium solution.
  - DO NOT spray any cleaning solution directly on the surface of the pump.
  - DO NOT use a Hypocarbonate or Phenolic based cleaning solution as this may cause damage to the case. Allow the solution to incubate for 10 minutes or accordingly as stated by the cleaning product used.
  - Spray cloth with cleaning solution and clean faceplate. DO NOT allow excess cleaning solution on faceplate or control panel. (If solution gets inside, damage will occur.) Allow surface to thoroughly dry after cleaning.
  - After the pump is thoroughly cleaned and dried, proceed to plug in the pump and test to see if it runs normally.
• Bubble Pad:
  - Any obvious blood spots should be cleaned thoroughly with 1:9 Hypochlorite solution (1 part bleach to 9 parts water) and allow drying for at least 10 minutes. Then blot with a clean, damp cloth.
  - Brush or wipe down all surfaces with soap and water before applying any liquid.
  - Allow it to thoroughly air dry. Once the inside is dry, turn it back: wipe down the outside of the bag with disinfectant.
  - Dry the bubble pad away from direct sunlight after cleaning.
• Handling And Storage:
  - Lay the bubble pad flat. Fold or roll it carefully.
