Full Chair Position
The Full Chair feature is only available on beds with Chair
Egress. It allows the caregiver to place the patient in a fully
seated position without having to remove the patient from the
bed.
To Activate
1. Set the brake.
2. Press and hold the Chair control. The patient deck
transitions to the reclined position (first the patient deck
will slightly recline backwards as the seat and lumbar
sections on the mattress slightly deflate) then to the Chair
position.
3. If the footboard is installed, when the articulation stops and a tone sounds, the bed has
reached the full chair position.
NOTE:
If the footboard is not installed, bed will proceed into Chair Egress.
WARNING:
Do not transport a patient with the bed in a chair position. Injury to the patient may occur.
CAUTION:
Do not stand or sit on the footboard. Damage to equipment may occur.
WARNING:
Observe lines, drainage bags, and linens closely during chair positioning. Patient injury can occur.
Chair Egress
The chair egress feature allows the caregiver to easily
position a patient to exit from the foot end of the bed by
pushing and holding one button.
The chair egress position is intended to facilitate patient
exit and not long-term sitting.
The head section moves to full upright position, the foot
section retracts and lowers completely, the bed lowers to
its lowest height, the seat and leg sections deflate, the
bed tilts and then the knee lowers. The back section can
then be inflated to sit the patient straight up as an egress
assist.
To Activate
1. Make sure the brakes are set.
2. Remove the footboard if installed.
NOTE:
When removed, the footboard is designed to be
stood upright on the floor
