Product Specifications

A safety feature of this product includes protection against overheating caused by excessive
or extended periods of operation. Depending on the duration, this includes multiple or
repeated adjustments or the use of multiple functions at one time. To assure trouble free
operation, ALWAYS allow a slight pause between multiple adjustments and avoid pressing
more than one function button at a time. If thermal protection activation should occur, the bed
will not respond to pendant commands. Given this situation, release the pendant button and
allow the bed unit to sit for several minutes. This will allow the protection function time to
reset and restore bed function. Depending on the severity of the initial overheating, this could
take up to 30 minutes.
This equipment may cause electromagnetic disturbances to its environment. The bed has
NOT been evaluated for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
The performance of this equipment may be degraded when exposed to electromagnetic
disturbances and / or electrostatic discharge.
Hang pendant on hook or secure with linen clip when not in use. Keep cord clear of moving
parts.
General Precautions:
Do not use head/foot panels from other manufacturers. Invacare products are specifically
designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with Invacare accessories. Accessories
designed by other manufacturers have not been tested by Invacare and are not recommended
for use with Invacare products.
When used with an electrical bed, the bed rails DO NOT fall under any weight limitations. Bed
rails can be deformed or broken if excessive side pressure is exerted on the bed rails. These
bed rails are used for the purpose of preventing an individual from inadvertently rolling out of
bed. The bed rails are NOT intended nor may be used for restraint purposes. If an individual is
capable of injuring himself/herself, a physician or a healthcare professional should be
consulted for alternative means of safe restraint.
If patient assessment concludes that the patient’s condition increases the chance of
entrapment, the bed MUST be in the flat position when left unattended.
NEVER allow patients to use trapeze or traction units as a total individual weight support.
Trapeze units are to be used only for immobilizing a patient in various traction set-ups or
assisting the patient in repositioning or transferring into or out of bed.
Replacement mattresses and bedside rails with dimensions different than the original
equipment supplied or specified by the bed frame manufacturer are not interchangeable.
Variations in bedside rail design, width and thickness or firmness of the mattress could
cause/contribute to entrapment. Use only authorized Invacare replacement parts and/or
accessories otherwise the warranty is void. Invacare will not be responsible for any damage
or injury that may result.
PINCH-POINT between rail and floor is created when lowering bed to the lowest position.
Keep feet clear of bed rail when lowering bed.
Close supervision is necessary when this product is used by or near children or people with
disabilities. DO NOT let any individual underneath the bed or in between the raised bed frame
components at anytime.
