46 Compella™ Bariatric Bed System Instructions for Use (178951 REV 6)
Scale Reference Position
Warning—Before you weigh the patient or zero the scale, make sure the bed is in the Scale Reference
position as defined below. Failure to do so could cause an inaccurate weight reading; patient injury
could occur.
1
If you attempt to zero the scale when the bed is not in the Scale Reference position, you will hear a
triple beep to let you know that the bed is not in the correct position. Look for a flashing Frame Setup
or Release Brake indicator. Repeat step 1 or 2 as identified by the flashing indicator.
If the Brake Not Set alert is sounding, you will not hear the triple beep, so we recommend that you
release the brake last.
The scale system is now ready for you to zero the scale or weigh the patient.
1. Press and hold the Frame Setup control until you hear a single beep. These will
occur:
a. The head section will flatten.
b. The foot section will fully lengthen.
c. The bed will lower to its lowest position.
2. Release the brake. The Brake Not Set alert will sound, so we recommend that you
do this step last to minimize the alert sound.
When the bed is correctly in the Scale Reference position, the Scale Reference indicator
will come on solid.
