functions to verify no interference. Do
not place anything on the power unit.
Route power cord underneath bed frame
and verify freedom from hazard. See Sec-
tion 8.0 of this Manual ("Installation") for
further installation instructions.

Bed Linens:

This device incorporates a waterproof

imize the system's performance. NOTE:
Only "breathable" incontinent pads are
recommended for use with this device.

lighters, or cigarettes. This device draws
room air continuously, therefore cigarette
smoking is not recommended near this

ternal components. Cigarettes may ignite
cotton bed linens. CAUTION: DO NOT
SMOKE CIGARETTES, PIPES, CIGARS,
OR ANY OTHER RELATED PROD-
UCTS ON OR AROUND THIS SYSTEM.
FLAMMABILITY HAZARD EXISTS.
