SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
All instructions must be read and understood before the product
may be used.
Terminologies
Patient: The person sitting in the chair.
User: Competent person with responsibility for the persons sitting in the chair as
well as the suitability of the equipment for the Patient. The User is responsible for
checking the chair for faults during the course of its use.
Assembly, Installation, Warnings & Hazards.
1. This chair should be fully assembled, all fixings secured and the chair checked for
safety by a competent person before use.
2. The User must ensure that the product is in good condition before use (check all nuts
and bolts are fastened, fabric in good condition etc). If there are any problems, these
must be reported to your Seating Matters provider and corrected before the chair is
put into use.
3. Keep all body parts away from the mechanisms under the chair. Repairs and
maintenance should only be carried out by fully trained technicians.
4. Exercise care in removing parts when cleaning or adjusting to avoid injury.
5. Pressure ulcer or pressure injury reduction is not a guarantee with this equipment.
The User must ensure that the Patient has a period out of the chair after prolonged
sitting to raise tissue oxygenation levels. Although the chair oers pressure
management, the body tissue still needs time to recover. In many places, local or
national guidelines recommend a maximum of 2 hours sitting at any one time. You
must also observe Patient specific recommendations and guidelines as set by their
health professional with regard to the use of tilt and recline for appropriate pressure
management.

USER GUIDE AND
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A competent person, trained in the use of the chair, should make adjustments and set
it up according to the User requirements and Patient dimensions before the Patient

• Braking Castors:
If The DENVER™ is used on a plane or hard surface with the brakes engaged to
ensure stability and to avoid the device moving undesirably during use. Braking
castors, where provided, must be in the braked position while in use.
• Back angle adjustment:
To recline the back of the chair, the user use the buttons on the handheld remote to
move the back of the chair slowly until it is in the required position. Exercise care in
case of injury to the Patient or damage to the surrounding environment.

•Seat cushion: The seat cushion on the DENVER™ is a waterproof, pressure
redistributing, breathable, medium foam cushion providing pressure management and
comfort. The seat cushion will have non-slip material on one face and a zip closure on
one side.
To fit the seat cushion to the chair, unwrap the cushion from the plastic packaging.
Ensure the non-slip material is on the bottom and makes contact with the non-
slip material already on the baseboard, with the zip closure at the rear. This is
important as the foam's structure facilitates immersion and envelopment of the body
prominences ONLY when fitted as instructed.
•Back Options: Back cushions can be reconfigured to change from a Waterfall position
to a Fibrelux position using the velcro on the front of the backrest. (Figure 3. a).
Side Laterals: Side laterals can be purchased seperately as additional side support to
the DENVER™. To add or remove side laterals, insert the end (no padded side) of the
lateral into the mounted bracket on the backrest and tighten the knobs. (Figure 3.b).
