pro+ Surface Instruction for Use (209196 REV 8) 3
Safety Information
(Warnings continued) Obey these safety instructions to help prevent
injury and/or equipment damage:
•Warning—Do not unzip the pro+ surface while the surface is
receiving AC power. Electrical shock could occur.
•Warning—The potential for electrical shock exists with electrical
equipment. Failure to follow facility protocols may cause death or
serious injury.
• Warning—To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment must
only be connected to a supply mains with protective earth.
• Warning—Make sure to use a correctly grounded, three-prong,
120 V outlet (NEMA 5-15R or NEMA 5-200R outlet, rated 125 V AC,
15 A or 125 V AC, 20 A, respectively). Failure to do so could cause
personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment or facility
wiring.
• Warning—Evaluate patients for entrapment risk according to
facility protocol and/or healthcare provider directives, and
monitor patients appropriately. Make sure all siderails are fully
latched when in the raised position. Failure to do either of these
could cause serious injury or death.
• Warning—The pro+ surface is not a substitute for good nursing
practices. The surface should be used in conjunction with good
assessment and protocol.
• Warning—Take care to minimize the risk of tripping over the
power cords by carefully locating them from the bed to their
power source. Failure to do so could lead to a trip hazard and/or
electrical shock.
• Warning—Make sure that there are no foreign objects in the
patient zone of the surface.
• Warning—The pro+ surface is intended for patients who are
within the specified weight limit of 70 lb (32 kg) to 500 lb (227
kg). Use of the pro+ surface with a patient whose weight is
outside of the specified limits may cause loss of therapeutic value
and/or damage to the surface.
• Warning—The pro+ surface may not be effective for patients
when the surface is used past its design life.
