9 Decommissioning
If the bed is not used for an extended period, please follow the instructions below for taking
the bed out of service safely and ensuring ideal conditions for its re-use:
•
Clean and disinfect the bed (see Part C: Cleaning and Disinfection » 38 or Part B:
Cleaning and Disinfection » 42) and cover it to protect it from getting contaminated
again.
• Adjust the mattress base to a flat home position at its lowest level.
• Lock the electric adjustment functions to prevent them from being activated accidental-
ly or by unauthorised persons.
• If the optional rechargeable battery is fitted: Charge the integrated rechargeable battery
by connecting the bed to the mains electricity supply for about 8 hours, and then un-
plug the switch mode power supply from the socket and hang it on the headboard with
the fixing clip.
Repeat this procedure every 3 months to maintain the battery capacity
• Engage the brakes on the bed.
