Connect the bed to the mains.
Charge the battery.

Check that the siderails function properly.
Dispose of all packaging (see Disposal).
10.2 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.
10.3 Battery Operation
Check the batteries’ functionality at least once a month in accordance with the user and service manuals
and have the batteries changed if necessary.
The manufacturer recommends to replace the battery by qualified service organization after 2 (two) years
of use. After this period the supposed service life of battery ends and the manufacturer cannot guarantee
the battery service life after this period.
The battery must be replaced with the new battery approved by manufacturer after maximum 5 (five) years
of use at the latest.
Use only batteries approved by the manufacturer.
NOTE The service life of the batteries depends on the frequency and method of use.
The manufacturer will assume no responsibility for any damage to the bed or the battery caused by:
non-observance of the manufacturer’s instructions in the user manual
using batteries not approved by the manufacturer
NOTE The manufacturer provides a 6-month warranty for the full function of the batteries.
To charge the battery:
Connect the bed to the mains.
NOTE Some bed adjustment options are not available without a battery, for example, height adjustment under
a load of above 200 kg.
Material damage due to temperature difference!
If there is a considerable temperature difference between the bed and the
place of operation (after transport/storage), leave Bed Mover unconnected
for 24 for the dif- ference to balance itself.
