| ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR MOSAIC CUSHION: |
| STEP ONE: |
Place cushion on chair, making sure it is centered and the cells are right side up, with air valve in front, left corner. Turn valve counterclockwise to open. Note: The MOSAIC1816C cushion can be rotated to fit 16” x 18” / 41 cm x 46 cm chairs. |
 |
| STEP TWO: |
Slide the pump’s rubber nozzle over the valve and inflate the cushion until it begins to slightly arch upward. |
 |
| STEP THREE: |
Turn valve clockwise to close. Remove pump. |
 |
| STEP FOUR: |
Have the user sit in the chair, making sure the cushion is centered underneath. The user should be seated in their normal sitting position. |
 |
| STEP FIVE: |
: Slide your hand between the cushion’s surface and the user’s bottom. Lift their leg slightly and feel for their lowest bony prominence. Then lower their leg to a sitting position. |
 |
| STEP SIX: |
Turn valve counterclockwise to let air out, while keeping your hand under the user’s lowest bony prominence. Release air until you can barely move your finger tips - no more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) and no less than 1/2 inch (1.5 cm). Turn valve clockwise to close. |
 |
| NOTE: |
DO NOT sit on improperly inflated cusion. Under-inflated cushion reduces or eliminates the cushion’s benefits and could increase risk to skin and other soft tissue. The cushion is most effective when there is 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) to 1 inch (2.5 cm) of air between the user’s bottom and the seating surface. |
