9 Operation
9.1 Initial Operation
Prepare the bed for service as follows:
Dispose of all packaging (see Disposal).
Connect the bed to the mains.
Charge the battery.
Raise the mattress platform to the highest position.
Remove the isolating foil from control section.
Lower and tilt the mattress platform to the lowest position.
Check the castors and main brake work correctly.
Check the bed extension works correctly.
Check it is possible to remove the head and foot boards.
Check all of the functions on the control elements (supervisor control panel etc.).
Check the side rails function properly.
9.2 Battery
For declared lifetime period of leaded accumulators is recommended during storage:
1. To prevent accumulators from deep discharging (state-of-charge under 70%) and to keep accumulators
at least partly charged by regular recharging
2. To store accumulators on dry and cold places (from 10°C to 0°C)
3. To prevent accumulators from being in the sunshine
The battery supplied with the bed is delivered uncharged. The battery serves as a backup during power failures or
while transporting the patient.
If there is a considerable temperature difference between the bed and the place of operation (after
transport/storage), leave bed unconnected for 24 hours to allo the temperature to equalise.
If the battery is faulty, degassing may occur. In rare cases this might cause deformations of the battery
case, control panel housing or cable.
