neck caught in this location (see specic Assist Device
Installation Instructions for more information).
If multiple assist devices are used, position each so that
gap between them is large enough for trunk and hips
to pass through easily. Make sure raising or lowering
bed, or contouring sleep surface does not create any
hazardous gaps. Failure to do so could result in injury or
death. Important Note: Powered air mattress surfaces
may pose a risk of entrapment. Prior to use, ensure the
therapeutic benets outweigh the risk of entrapment.
Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Do not use an
assist device if any openings within assist device body
allow resident/patient to get his/her head or neck lodged
within these openings. Use of assist devices with large
openings may result in injury or death.
Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Do not use any
Joerns
®
assist device until you verify it is designed
specically for EasyCare® and it is locked in place.
Failure to lock assist devices may result in injury or
death.
Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Do not use any
replacement parts not manufactured, marketed or
provided by Joerns Healthcare on any Joerns bed. Use
of unapproved replacement parts may result in injury or
death.
Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. If using
accessories not manufactured, marketed or provided
by Joerns Healthcare for Joerns beds, consult with the
manufacturer for compatibility and limitations prior to
use. Failure to do so may result in injury or death.
Warning: Possible Shock Hazard. If the bed power
cord has a hospital-grade, 3-prong grounding plug,
grounding reliability can only be achieved when
equipment is connected to an equivalent receptacle
marked hospital-grade.
Warning: Possible Injury. Sitting on or sliding over
the Mattress Side Stop can cause skin injury if the bed
mattress compresses to less than 1.5 inches under
user’s weight.
Warning: Possible Injury. Risk of entanglement or
injury may occur if mattress used with Mattress Side
Stop does not ll the entire width between stops or
which compresses to less than 1.5 inches under user’s
weight.
Warning: Possible Injury or Death. NEVER permit
more than (1) person in/on the bed at any time.
NEVER exceed the weight capacity of this bed.
The weight capacity of this bed is 500 lbs (227 kg)
including accessories and options (not all accessories
and options may be used at the same time). Subtract
resident’s weight from beds capacity 500 lbs (227 kg)
to determine allowable weight for mattress, bed panels,
accessories, and optional equipment. See page 15 for
accessory weights.
Warning: Possible Injury or Death. Floor locks
increase bed stability and resident safety. Make sure the
bed is in a locked position with respect to the oor by
ensuring the casters are off the oor or if equipped, the
Care-Lock is in the locked position before attempting
any resident transfers. Failure to do so could result in
injury or death.
Warning: Possible Injury. Use caution when activating
the Care-Lock function. This feature was designed to be
activated by your foot. Using your hand to activate the
Care-Lock system could result in injury.
Caution: In the absence of line voltage, all bed
adjustments can be achieved via an externally available
backup battery (Joerns P/N N511). Joerns recommends
a minimum of one battery for every twenty ve beds per
facility.
Caution: This device complies with EMC requirements
of IEC 60601-1-2. Radio transmitting equipment,
cellular phones or similar electronic devices, used in
proximity of bed, may affect bed performance.
Caution: Particular precaution must be considered
during exposure to strong emission sources such as
High Frequency surgical equipment and similar devices.
Do not route High Frequency cables on or near device.
If in doubt, contact a qualied technician.
Caution: The Joerns’ EasyCare bed is intended for use
within institutional healthcare environments 2, 3 and
5 (ie: skilled nursing, transitional care, rehabilitational
care, assisted living). Joerns Healthcare recommends
compliance to the regulations and guidelines specied
to your locality.
This product is only one part of your healthcare bed
system. Proper combinations of mattress, head/foot
panels and assist devices are needed to minimize the
risk of entrapment. For more information, call Customer
