This operation manual is mainly focused on the set-up, cleaning and routine maintenance of the Comfort Glide Air Blower. We recommend keeping this manual handy to answer questions related to the system.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – INTENDED USE

The Comfort Glide Air Blower is a component of the Comfort Glide air system designed to help clinicians safely reposition and move patients.
The system has been designed to reduce risks and make patient repositioning and transfers easier and safer.

GENERAL SAFETY

It is important to read the information in this user manual before you use your Comfort Glide Air Blower.
Please follow the guidelines below for your added safety and maintaining system performance.
Avoid exposing the Air Blower to flammable anesthetics.

DEVICE FEATURE

Part Identification:

INFLATING COMFORT GLIDE AIR SHEET

a. Patient should be in a supine position with the bed at a 0 degree incline
b. Place Comfort Glide Air Sheet underneath the patient.
c. Place the Comfort Glide Air Blower directly on flat ground or use the carabiner to hang the unit on the bed frame.
d. Plug the power cord into the nearest standard wall outlet
e. Connect the air hose to one side of the Comfort Glide Air Sheet air intake opening and securely fasten into place. Choose the air input on the side that will permit free movement of the hose.

CAUTION: It is important to routinely inspect power cable to ensure it is not obstructed or causing a tripping hazard. Check the power cable is not under strain or damaged.

f. If using for lateral transfer, ensure that transfer surfaces are touching and lock all wheels.
g. Turn on the green power switch and the air blower will inflate the Comfort Glide Air sheet. When the Comfort Glide Air sheet is fully inflated, the sheet is ready to use and the patient can be
repositioned.
h. Ensure patient is centered on the surface prior to deflation.
i. Turn off Air Blower and raise the bed or stretcher rails.

CAUTION: Never leave the patient unattended with the Air Blower on.

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING

No daily maintenance is required. It is intended this equipment should only be serviced by qualified and authorized technical personnel. Please contact your Medline representative if the below troubleshooting solutions do not work

Fault/Problem Description Possible Root Cause Solution

essential when stacking or collocating equipment and when routing cables and accessories.
WARNING: RF mobile communications equipment can effect medical electrical equipment.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

Electric devices may interact due to electro-magnetic radiation. We recommend a safety distance of at least 1 meter, especially for sensitive equipment. Upon request, we can provide a table with more detailed electromagnetic information.

Recommended separation distances between

portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Comfort Glide Air Blower


The Comfort Glide Air Blower is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Comfort Glide Air Blower can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Comfort Glide Air Blower as rec- ommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where p is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

NOTE : If necessary to achieve the IMMUNITY TEST LEVEL, the distance between the transmitting antenna and the ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM may be reduced to 1 m. The 1 m test distance is permitted by

IEC 61000-4-3.

a.        For some services, only the uplink frequencies are included.

b.        The carrier shall be modulated using a 50 % duty cycle square wave signal.

c.         As an alternative to FM modulation, 50 % pulse modulation at 18 Hz may be used because while it does not represent actual modulation, it would be worst case.
