1. How to set up the Flexmort CoverCool™
(CuddleBlanket)

2. First ensure you have everything you should
CoverCool™ unit & power cord
Insulated duvet
Cool pad & hose
ColdFlowII & funnel
Manual
Loop back

3. Check the unit contains the correct amount of ColdFlowII
If not remove the filler cap and fill to the red line with ColdFlowII
It will not require very much fluid

4. Always use ColdFlowII
Failure to do so can damage the machine, which will not be covered by the warranty
If you require more ColdFlowII please

5. Plug the power lead into the unit and switch on

6. The display will light up and an alarm may sound
The display will light up and an alarm may sound. Do not worry, this is normal

7. Connect the hose, it does not matter which way around!

8. The two green lights on the front will be lit if the unit is set up correctly
The green is the set point and the red is the actual temperature of the cool pad
If the alarm sounds and the red light is lit see trouble shooting guide

9. To set/change the temperature
Press the ‘P’ button SP (set point ) will flash
Using the arrows set the green numbers to the required temperature
Then press the ‘P’ to lock this in
Most users have the CoverCool™ set at 8ׄ°C
The unit will remember what the last setting was and when turned on again will revert back to this

10. The CoverCool system is now up and running, check the fluid it may need topping up
Place the cool pad over the deceased who can be wearing clothes, a shroud or in a bodybag
The cool pad is positioned just below the neck
We recommend using a thin sheet between the cool pad and the deceased
Use another thin sheet on top of the cool pad
Lay the insulated duvet over the top, ensure that you cover the cool pad
Tuck the duvet around the deceased to prevent the ambient air getting to the cool pad
You can use any blankets or duvet over the top as below

11. When the unit is no longer required, disconnect the hose with the power on!

12. Turn the switch off and remove the power cable

13. Cleaning the CoverCool system
The CoverCool can be cleaned with
any standard plastic safe

15. Trouble shooting

16. I am getting condensation…..
We recommend that two cotton sheets are used 1 under & 1 on top of the cool pad
Depending on the ambient temperature these may require to be changed
Ensure the insulated duvet is used, and is tucked around the deceased
Try to minimise the amount of air reaching the cool pad
The unit is alarming…..
First check there is ColdFlowII in the reservoir
Ensure there are no kinks or something such as a trolley wheel on the hose
Check the connections at the unit and the cool pad
It is still alarming, what can I do?

17. Find the Loop back… Connect Loop back…
If the unit stops alarming try the cool pad again
If the alarm continues to alarm or starts alarm again you do have a fault
