5.2.2 Automated Cleaning (Dali wash)
5.3 Instruction of Care Staff and Technical Personnel
To avoid adverse effects on the bed, it must be specially prepared for machine cleaning. The
following steps are necessary to further guarantee the service life and functionality.
• Move the care bed to the lowest position.
• Check whether the housing of the drive components are undamaged (visual inspec-
tion).
• Remove the safety side bars. In the case of a defect on the surface, machine cleaning
would lead to the entry of moisture into the bars and cause permanent damage.
• Remove the lifting pole. This must NOT be cleaned automatically in a machine.
• Assemble the care bed on the storage aid supplied (see Part B: Dismantling the Care
Bed » 46).
• Remove the power pack. This must NOT be cleaned automatically in a machine.
Caution! After that, make sure that the socket for connecting the mains cable is closed
with a plug.
• Connect the plug of the drive motors to the lifting drive.
Caution! Ensure that the plugs are correctly connected to prevent water from penetrat-
ing the lifting drive.
• Check that all plug connections have been fully and securely insured.
• Only use approved cleaning agents and disinfectants.
• Only select validated cleaning and disinfection procedures.
• The pressure of the jet sprays (directly at the jet outlet) must not exceed 3 bar.
• The surface temperature of 55°C must not be exceeded during the washing and drying
process. Washing temperatures that are too low must also be avoided as this will result
in poor drying.
• The cleaning and disinfection cycle must not exceed 20 minutes. Depending on the
programme, a washing cycle with washing and disinfection lasts 6 to 20 minutes.
• Do not cool suddenly using cold water.
In order to ensure that cleaning and disinfection are conducted properly, we recommend that
users and technical staff are appropriately instructed. When providing instruction, observe
the following points:
•
A clean bed must be transported to the resident’s home in such a way that it will not
become dirty or contaminated.
•
When dismantling the bed, we recommend that it should be cleaned and wiped down
with disinfectant straight away. Technical staff should be informed of the special meas-
