The system has been designed to comply with regulatory safety standards including: • EN60601-1:1990/A13:1996 and IEC 60601-1:1988/A2:1995. • UL60601-1, UL2601-1 and CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 601.1-M90. • EN60601-1:2006, EN60601-1-11:2010 and IEC 60601-1:2005. • AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1:2006 and CAN/CSA C22.2 No.60601.1(2008).
Safety Warnings • It is the responsibility of the care giver to ensure that the user can use this product safely. • Whilst the patient is unattended, the decision to use safety sides should be based on clinical assessment and in line with local policy. • Alignment of the bed frame, safety sides and the mattress should leave no gap wide enough to entrap a patient's head or body, or to allow egress to occur in a hazardous manner where entanglement with the mains power cable and tubeset or air hoses may result. Care should be exercised to prevent occurrence of gaps by compression or movement of the mattress. Death or serious injury may occur. • Make sure that the mains power cable and tubeset or air hoses are positioned to avoid causing a trip or other hazard, and are clear of moving bed mechanisms or other possible entrapment areas. The mains power cable of this pump is designed to allow movement of the bed, and should be fitted into the cable management flaps along the sides of the mattress, as described in this manual. • When using a seat cushion, the tubeset may be a trip hazard; position the tubeset so that it does not create a trip hazard, and always supervise babies and small children when the product is in use. • Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the pump. The pump's case must only be removed by authorised technical personnel. No modification of this equipment is allowed. • The mains power socket/plug must be accessible at all times. To disconnect the pump completely from the electricity supply, remove the plug from the mains power socket. • The CPR control and/or the CPR indicator tag must be visible and accessible at all times. • Disconnect the pump from the mains power socket before cleaning and inspecting. • Keep the pump away from sources of liquids and do not immerse in water. • Do not use the pump in the presence of uncontained flammable liquids or gasses. • The cover of this product is vapour permeable but not air permeable and may present a suffocation risk. • Do not use the mattress without a cover, it provides a protective barrier. • Bags supplied with this equipment may present a suffocation risk; to avoid the risk of suffocation keep the bags away from babies and small children. • There is no Transport facility on the seat cushion. • Only the pump and mattress combination as indicated by ArjoHuntleigh should be used. The correct function of the product cannot be guaranteed if incorrect pump and mattress combinations are used.
(iii)
• The battery socket cover on the bottom of the pump must be retained in position at all times. If there is a need to remove it, then it should be stored in a safe place away from babies and small children for subsequent reinstalling. • Due to the inherently lower flame retardancy of the high performance Ventilate IS2 fabric, it is NOT suitable for use in the homecare environment.
Safety Warnings - Battery Pack (Optional) THE BATTERY PACK IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE IN THE HOMECARE ENVIRONMENT. The following instructions are important for the safe use of the battery pack and to keep the user (resident/care giver) from harm: • The battery pack BBP600 for the Auto Logic® pump is rechargeable. For maximum battery life, charge the battery at least once every five months when the product is not in use. • Only use the battery pack designed for use with the pump. If unsure, do not use the battery pack. Make sure the battery pack belongs to the pump by comparing the battery pack label with the“Technical Description” on page 27. If the battery pack type cannot be confirmed, contact your local ArjoHuntleigh office. • Do not expose the battery pack or charger to open flames. • Do not expose the battery pack connector to water. • To avoid bodily injury, do not crush, puncture, open, dismantle or otherwise mechanically interfere with the battery pack. • Should the battery pack casing crack and cause contents to come in contact with skin or clothing, rinse immediately with plenty of water. • If contents come in contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention. • Inhalation of the contents can cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air and medical attention. • Stop using the battery pack if any damage or deformation is noted. Contact your local ArjoHuntleigh office before further use. • Refer to the “Battery Storage and Disposal” on page 23 for the correct disposal and recycling of the battery pack. Precautions For your own safety and the safety of the equipment, always take the following precautions: • Placing extra layers between the patient and the mattress potentially reduces the benefits provided by the mattress and should be avoided or kept to a minimum. As part of sensible pressure area care, it is advisable to avoid wearing clothing which may cause areas of localised high pressure due to creases, seams, etc. Placing objects in pockets should be avoided for the same reason. • Do not expose the system, especially the mattress, to naked flames, such as cigarettes, etc. • In the event of a fire, a leak in the seat or mattress could propagate the fire. • Do not store the system in direct sunlight. • Do not use phenol-based solutions to clean the system. • Make sure the system is clean and dry prior to use or storage. • Never use sharp objects or electrically heated under blankets on or under the system. • Store the pump and mattress in the protective bags supplied. • Pets and children must be supervised in the vicinity of the system.

1. Introduction About this Manual
This manual is your introduction to the Auto Logic Dual Mode support systems and the Aura Logic® seat cushion. You must read and fully understand this manual before using the system. Use this manual to initially set up the mattress or seat cushion, keep it as a reference for day-to-day routines and as a guide to maintenance. If you have any difficulties in setting-up or using the Auto Logic and Aura Logic systems, contact your ArjoHuntleigh sales office, listed at the end of this manual.
Intended Use
The intended use of this product is to prevent and/or manage pressure ulcers for patients up to 200 kg (440 lb). The Auto Logic system should be used as part of a prescribed plan of care (refer to “Indications” on page 6).
About Auto Logic
Auto Logic Pump
The Auto Logic systems comprise a mattress replacement, overlay or seat cushion, all operated by the same pump. The pump incorporates Self Set Technology (SST), which adjusts air pressure every 10 minutes for the Active (Alternating) mode and 20 minutes for the Reactive (Constant Lower Pressure) (CLP) mode to suit the Body Mass Index (BMI) and position of the patient. Both support systems can be used on standard hospital beds. A full technical description of the Auto Logic system can be found in the Service Manual, part number SER0006, available from your ArjoHuntleigh sales office. The Auto Logic pump comprises a moulded case with non slip feet on the base and rear and integral hanging brackets. The controls are situated on the top of the pump and a sophisticated alarm system differentiates between normal operation and genuine system faults. If an alarm situation is detected an indicator illuminates on the top and front of the pump and an audible warning sounds. The Autofirm system, once activated, creates a temporary firm surface to allow nursing procedures to be performed. 1

CPR Function
Tubeset
The standard cover comprises a 2-way stretch PU coated knitted fabric zipped to a durable polyester base. The zips are protected by flaps to prevent ingress of contaminants and allow easy removal of the cover for cleaning. Alternative covers with advanced properties, such as Glide IS2 and Ventilate IS2 are also available (Refer to “COVER SPECIFICATION” on page 30). The mattress comprises 20 polyurethane (PU) cells providing support to the user in either Active (Alternating) or Reactive (Constant Lower Pressure) modes. The cells are slightly curved to reduce patient movement down the mattress. The side supporting cells incorporate Cell-in-Cell technology to help the transfer of patients on and off the bed by keeping the edges of the mattress firm. A micro air loss system is incorporated into the base cover which de-humidifies the air surrounding the cells to reduce heat build up within the mattress and ensure patient comfort. This system is separate from the cell inflation to enable both micro air loss and patient transport modes to be incorporated into the mattress. A CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation) control is positioned at the head end of the mattress to enable the air to be evacuated in under 10 seconds. The tubeset has a 3-way pneumatic connection which incorporates a flexible, compact anti-kink tube that is resistant to crushing and any subsequent obstruction of air flow.
If the tubeset is disconnected from the pump, the Overlay Base Cover
mattress automatically changes to Transport mode. The base cover for the mattress overlay is PU coated polyester on the underside. Four corner retention straps are incorporated, which slide under the corners of the base mattress.

Auto Logic 175 & 200 Mattress Replacement
The Auto Logic 175 & 200 mattress replacements are of a similar construction to the overlay with the addition of a non-slip base. Within the non-slip base, the 175 mattress includes a foam underlay and the 200 mattress has an air filled zoned sub-mattress both of which replace the need for a mattress on the bed. The base can be removed to convert the mattress replacement to an overlay, refer to ArjoHuntleigh for more information.

The Sub-Mattress provides an integral constant pressure support which removes the need for a standard mattress. The pressure in the central zone of the pad is automatically adjusted in line with the Active (Alternating)/Reactive (Constant Lower Pressure) (CLP) of the mattress. The pressure in the perimeter zone of the pad is maintained at a higher level to help transfer of patients on and off the bed. On the underside of the Sub-Mattress there are eight straps to attach the mattress replacement to the bed frame. The straps can be moved to any of the 10 anchor points to allow attachment of the mattress to different bed frames.

2. Clinical Applications Indications
The Auto Logic systems are indicated for the prevention and/or management of all categories1 of pressure ulcer, when combined with an individualised, comprehensive pressure ulcer protocol: for example, repositioning, nutritional support, skin care. Selection should be based upon a holistic assessment of the patient’s individual care needs. These systems represent one aspect of a pressure ulcer management protocol; all other aspects of care should be considered by the prescribing clinician. If existing wounds do not improve or the patient's condition changes the overall therapy regimen should be reviewed by the prescribing clinician. The above are guidelines only and should not replace clinical judgement. The Auto Logic mattress and cushion are designed for patients weighing up to 200kg (440 lb).
Contraindications
Do not use Auto Logic systems for patients with unstable spinal fractures.
Cautions
If patients have other unstable fractures, or conditions which may be complicated by a soft or moving surface, advice should be sought from an appropriate clinician before use. While the Auto Logic systems have been designed to manage patients up to the weight limits indicated above, those approaching this upper limit are likely to have additional care and mobility needs and may be better suited to a specialist bariatric system. Active (Alternating) therapy cushions may be unsuitable for patients with poor sitting posture or pelvic deformity; advice from a seating specialist should be sought.
Care of the Patient When Sitting
Seated patients are at increased risk of pressure ulcers particularly if they are immobile or have wounds over the seating area. For optimal outcome, provide a pressure redistributing seat cushion in a chair which promotes a good sitting posture and has a level base seat to support the cushion, in addition to an individualised repositioning programme.
Mattress and cushion combinations may have different upper weight limits. Cushions should be used in combination with pressure-redistributing mattresses to provide 24-hour therapy. 1. NPUAP/EPUAP International Pressure Ulcer Guideline, 2009.
