Bed not Recommended Position
“Bed not in recommended position” means the bed is not in the position that the scale was certified in
during manufacturing. You can weigh in the non-recommended position; however, non-recommended
positions may reduce accuracy and repeatability. The weight can be saved, but will be noted as a non-
verified weight.
Recommended Bed Position to Weigh a Patient and Required Bed Position to Zero/Tare the
Bed
If the bed is on an uneven floor surface, weighing or zero/tare is not possible. The “Out of Position
Screen” indicating Trendelenburg/Reverse Trendelenburg is out of position will appear. If
Trendelenburg/Reverse Trendelenburg is level, move the bed to a flat floor surface and retry weighing
or zero/tare.
View Weight History
The GCI screen will show the initial weight of the patient and at least 21 weights that were taken. The
screen will show the date and time, last zero, the weight, how much the weight adjusted, and the bed
position when the weight was taken.
If the weight was taken in a Not Recommended Position, an icon will appear, which shows the position
of the bed when the weight was taken.
Use the arrows or touch a dot to see different weights.
