11 BASIC OPERATION 2 Power On/Off Chair power is controlled by the Mains On/Off button on the power supply (see Figure 5). This On/Off button provides power to the chair, as well as any attached modules (including delivery system, dental light, cuspidor, and other support systems). To access the button and power supply, pull the utility cover out at the cover posts and lift the cover off (Figure 5 below and Figure 6 on page 6). The button can remain in the On position overnight, although you may choose to turn it off during longer periods of non-use. The button should always be turned off before service. Figure 5.

12 Chair Status Light When the chair status light on the utility cover illuminates solid blue, the chair is on and ready for use (see Figure 6). See Table 2 for other indications. Figure 6. Status Light A B (A) Chair Status Light; (B) Cover Post Table 2. Status Light Indications Light Status Solid Blue Blinking Double Blink Description and Action Normal operation. Proceed as normal. Chair back has exceeded the run time limit. Wait for one minute, then proceed as normal. Chair is in factory default. Programmed pre-sets are disabled, but all other functions are normal. Call for service Rev A

13 Basic Operation Chair Positioning You can operate the chair manually or using programmed presets from a footswitch or A-dec delivery system touchpad. See Figure 7 for a description of controls on the A-dec footswitch. Figure 7. A-dec Chair Footswitch Icon/Number Action Back Down Back Up Base Down Base Up Program Button Entry/Exit. Automatically positions chair for patient entry/exit. Treatment 1. Automatically positions the chair base and back in a supine operating position. Treatment 2. Automatically positions the chair base and back in an operating position for working direct. X-Ray/Rinse. Automatically positions the chair base and back for either x-ray or rinse. Toggles between this position and the last manual setting Rev A 7

14 Manual Controls The Base Up/Base Down buttons raise and lower the chair (see Figure 7). Press the up or down arrows on the footswitch and hold until the chair reaches the desired position. The Back Up/Back Down buttons control the chair back motion (see Figure 7). Press the right or left arrows on the footswitch and hold until the back reaches the desired position. Programmable Chair Positions Use the program button,, located on the top middle of the footswitch to assign and save the programmed chair positions (see Figure 7). Follow these steps to program chair positions: Program Chair Positions To program the chair positions Entry/Exit, Treatment 1, and Treatment 2: 1. Use the manual controls to adjust the chair position as desired. 2. Press and release. One beep indicates programming mode. 3. Press the chair position button you wish to reset (for example, press ). Three beeps indicates the new setting is programmed into memory. Customize the X-Ray/Rinse Button The x-ray/rinse functions either as x-ray/rinse or as a programmable position. To customize: 1. Press and hold buttons and simultaneously for three seconds. One beep indicates the button has been configured as Treatment 3. Three beeps indicates the x-ray/rinse button has been configured as the x-ray/ rinse function (toggles between the x-ray/rinse and the previous position). 2. Program the preset position as instructed above, under Program Chair Positions. TIP If x-ray/rinse is changed to a preset position, it operates the same as the treatment buttons 1 and Rev A

15 Basic Operation Touchpad Chair Controls Your touchpad chair controls (see Figure 8) work similarly to the footswitch, but vary depending on your delivery system. To use and program chair functions on your touchpad, please reference the Instructions For Use that came with your delivery system. Figure 8. A-dec Touchpad Examples Note: Touchpad symbols are proprietary to A-dec Inc. Patient Positioning Your chair features one of two choices of backrest: a thin-line back with patientadjustable neck support or a thin-line back with double-articulating headrest. Patient-Adjustable Neck Support Backrests with the integrated, neck support cushion (see Figure 9) allow for easy adjustment by the patient or staff. When the patient is seated, ensure that the neck cushion is in the correct position. Place the cushion below the occipital bone for patient neck comfort. Properly positioned, the cushion glides with the patient to provide comfort as the chair is raised or lowered. Figure 9. Neck Support A (A) Neck Support Rev A 9

16 The neck support can be repositioned in the track to accommodate shorter or taller patients (see Figure 10). To reposition, place your thumb against the neck support armature and pull the cushion out from the track. Flip the cushion around and snap back into the track. The cushion includes a graphic on the back that depicts proper orientation for shorter or taller patients. Figure 10. Reposition Neck Support C B A (A) Neck Support Track; (B) Neck Support Armature; (C) Orientation Graphics Double-Articulating Headrest Backrests with the double-articulating headrest offer you exceptional flexibility in positioning the patient (see Figure 11 and Figure 12). Figure 11. Double-Articulating Headrest A B C (A) Headrest; (B) Locking Knob; (C) Glide Bar Rev A

17 Basic Operation Figure 12. Double-Articulating Headrest Positioning Headrest Adjustment The double-articulating headrest offers a glide feature, as well as manual articulation (see Figure 12). The locking knob allows you to easily adjust the headrest for a full range of positions. Release the headrest by turning the locking knob to the left, then adjust the headrest for a proper fit. Lock the headrest in the desired position by turning the knob to the right. For minor height adjustment, slide the headrest cushion up and down. For additional height adjustment, reposition the glide bar. DANGER When the glide bar has reached its maximum recommended working height, a warning will be visible on the patient s side of the glide bar. Do not use the headrest in a position where this warning is visible Rev A 11

18 How to Position for Wheelchairs The double-articulating headrest can be used to accommodate patients in wheelchairs, as shown in Figure 13. Figure 13. Positioning For Wheelchairs To position the headrest for wheelchairs: 1. Slide the headrest glide bar up until it is free from the dental chair. 2. Rotate the headrest 180 and slide the glide bar into the backrest. Ensure that the glide bar is pushed completely into the backrest. 3. Position the dental chair to its full back-up position. 4. Once the headrest is repositioned, adjust the height by moving the dental chair up or down. The patient should be positioned so the wheelchair and the dental chair are back to back. 5. Ensure that the wheels of the wheelchair are locked. Two-Position Armrests The armrests are simple to use and allow the patient to easily access the chair. Pull or push the armrests to reposition them in the forward or back position (see Figure 14). Figure 14. Positioning Armrests The armrests can also be locked into the upright position (see Figure 19 on page 15) Rev A

19 ADJUSTMENTS 3 Removing Upholstery Back Upholstery The design of the upholstery makes removing and replacing it quick and easy. The upholstery on your chair is installed in three sections: back, seat, and headrest. To remove the back upholstery, firmly grasp the bottom edge of the cushion and lift upward (approximately 1 inch or 25 mm), then lift the upholstery away from the chair back (see Figure 15). To reattach the back upholstery, place the key holes on the armature over the large fastener heads then push down until the upholstery stops in the correct position. Figure 15. Removing the Backrest A (A) Fastener Heads Rev A 13

20 Seat Upholstery To remove the seat upholstery, pull the pins out on both sides of the seat armature (see Figure 16). Then lift the seat and move it away. Figure 16. Removing Seat Upholstery A B (A) Seat Armature; (B) Seat Upholstery Pin Ring CAUTION When replacing the upholstery, ensure the pins are completely in place. The pin ring should be flush with the seat armature. Double-Articulating Headrest Upholstery To remove the headrest upholstery, position the headrest to access the two screws on the back, loosen screws, and remove upholstery (see Figure 17). To reattach the headrest upholstery, position the headrest to access the screws, place the upholstery on the headrest, insert and tighten the screws. Figure 17. Removing and Replacing Headrest Upholstery A (A) Mounting Screws Rev A

21 Adjustments Headrest Glidebar Tension If the headrest drifts downward, or if it is difficult to move up or down, the glide bar tension can be adjusted. To adjust the tension, use a 1/8'' (3 mm) hex key and turn the tension adjustment screw to the right to increase friction or left to decrease friction (see Figure 18). Figure 18. Drift Adjustment Convert to Fixed Armrests The armrests can be locked in an upright position. Using a hex key, remove the rotational stop screw from the front of the armrest and install it in the back of the armrest (see Figure 19). Figure 19. Fixed Armrests A B (A) Stop Screw Installed for Two-Positions (viewed from front of chair); (B) Stop Screw Installed for Fixed Position (viewed from behind the chair) Rev A 15

22 Utilities Utilities are located under the chair in the utility area, or in a remote floor box. The location will depend on your specific delivery system configuration and facilities. To access the utility area, pull the utility cover out at the cover posts and lift the cover off (see Figure 20). For adjustments, please reference the Instructions For Use that came with your delivery system. Figure 20. Accessing Utilities A B C (A) Utility Cover; (B) Utility Area; (C) Utility Cover Post Rev A

23 Adjustments Care & Asepsis Instructions Touch and Transfer Surfaces Toeboard Cleaning Touch surfaces are those areas that require contact and become potential crosscontamination points during dental procedures. Transfer surfaces are those surfaces that are contaminated by contact with instruments and other inanimate objects. A-dec recommends barrier protection for all applicable touch and transfer surfaces. When used, barriers must be FDA market-cleared barrier plastic. Cover-All barrier film or any other FDA market-cleared barrier film is suitable for this application. Refer to your national regulatory authorities for barrier recommendations specific to your location. Barrier plastics should be removed and discarded after each patient treatment. For recommendations on cleaning and chemical disinfection of touch and transfer surfaces (where barrier protection is not applicable or when barriers are compromised), please refer to the A-dec Equipment Asepsis Guide (P/N ). To remove scuffs, scrapes, and stains from the non-upholstered portion of the toeboard, use a mildly abrasive kitchen or bath cleanser. Wet the foot area with water from a spray bottle or wet towel. Apply the cleanser following the manufacturer s instructions. Use a soft towel to rub the cleanser in a circular motion over the entire surface. Remove the cleanser with clean water and a clean towel. This process may be repeated for blemishes that require additional cleaning Rev A 17
