WARNING

Always make sure the patient has the correct size of the Maxi Air Transfer Flites. If the Maxi
Air Transfer Flites is too narrow, the Maxi Ai r T ransfer Flites can tip over during transfer caus-
ing serious injury to the patient and the caregivers.

the transfer.

Placement of the patient

• Make sure the patient is placed in the middle of the Maxi Air Transfer Flites. (See Fig. 1)

• Make sure the patient’s body does NOT reach outside the boundaries of the Maxi Air Transfer Flites.

If the feet reach outside the foot end, make sure there is enough space for the transfer. (See Fig. 2)

• The patient’s head should be placed approximately 6” (150 mm) from the top of the M axi Air Transfer Flites.

Make sure the patient rests conveniently against the pillow during the transfer. (See Fig. 3)

mattress and this can cause bodily injury to the
caregiver as well.

Sending side: feel underneath the Maxi Air T ransfer Flites
to make sure that the patient can’t be felt through it.

(See Fig. 4)

If any part of the patient can be felt, the Maxi Air Transfer
Flites is partly inflated. To correct this problem:

• abort the inflation,

• reposition the patient and

• inflate again.

16 Sending side: tighten the safety belts and push the Maxi Air

Transfer Flites firmly towards the receiving surface.

(See Fig. 5)

NOTE
Use the transfer handles that are closest to the

widest parts of the patient’s body. (See Fig. 6)

Electromagnetic comp atibility

Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) and needs to
be used according to the EMC information below . The Maxi Air Transfer is intended for use in the electromagnetic
environment specified below . The customer or the user of the Maxi Air Transfer should make sure that it is used in
such an environment.

WARNING

Stacking or placing other electrical equipment next to this device is not recommended, it can
interfere with the equipment’s operation and safety. Portable and mobile radio-frequency (RF)
communications equipment can interfere with this equipment operation and safety.

WARNING

The equipment may cause radio interference or may disrupt the operation of nearby equip­ment. It may be necessary to take action, such as reorienting, relocating the equipment or
shielding the location.

Portable and mobile RF communica­tions equipment should be used no
closer to any part of the Maxi Air
Transfer including cables, than the
recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation appli­cable to the frequency of the trans­mitter.

Recommended separation distance
d=1,2√P
d=1,2√P 80 MHz to 800 MHz

d=2,3√P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz
Where P is the maximum output

power rating of the transmitter in
watts (W) according to the transmit­ter manufacturer and d is the recom­mended separation distance in
meters (m)

Field strengths from fixed RF trans­mitters, as determined by an electro­magnetic site survey, a) should be
less than the compliance level in
each frequency range. b) Interfer­ence may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with following
symbol:

NOTE 1
At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorp-

tion and reflection from structures, objects and people.
