WARNING
If the thigh rest is lowered, the lower leg rest is automatically lowered as well.
In order to raise the lower leg rest the thigh rest must also be raised.
• Raise the lower leg rest at the foot end - not using the mattress retainer bars - until the
desired position is reached. The lower leg rest engages automatically.

Failure to heed this warning may result in physical injury due to entrapment or crushing of
the member of staff.

Lower the lower leg rest carefully. There is a risk of injury occurring if the lower leg rest
falls unchecked.
1. Raise the lower leg rest to its full extent.
2. Then lower the lower leg rest slowly.

Failure to heed this safety information and instruction manual may cause the backrest
to fall unchecked, which could lead to serious injuries for both the member of staff and
the resident!

rectly.
