3.2 Caution: Electric drive
The electrically operated nursing care bed enables the person in need of care to support
the recovery process psychologically and physically and at the same time relieve pain
through its various functions. Electrically operated beds that are medical products need
special care in regards to constant safety checks. This includes safety-conscious handling
of the bed, daily inspection of electrical equipment and proper maintenance and clean-
ing.
To prevent damages to the cables, wiring should be conducted outside of the area in
which damages could be caused. Furthermore, avoid touching the sharp parts. To prevent
injury through an electric shock, avoid the possibilities of too high contact voltages. These
circumstances may especially be the case if the power cable is damaged, if inadmissible
and excessive leakage currents exist, or if liquid was spilled into the motor housing, e.g.
during improper cleaning. This damage can cause malfunction of the controller, which
could result in unwanted movements of single bed elements, posing a risk of injury for the
operator and the person in need of care.

Hazard note from Bock
Do not try to fix failures on the electrical equipment itself. It could be fatal! Either call the cus-
tomer service of Hermann Bock GmbH or an authorised/licensed electrician who conducts the
troubleshooting in compliance with all relevant VDE regulations and safety regulations.
