• DO NOT use this bed with incompatible mattresses or bed rails. Refer
to page 17 of this manual or contact your Compass Health dealer for
assistance with purchasing compatible models.
• After bed assembly or maintenance, test to ensure all sections are
securely in place and all electrical components operate as intended
BEFORE use.
• ALWAYS lock casters to prevent the bed from moving while occupied.
Even with casters locked, some oor surfaces may allow the bed to move
slightly; use of the bed on such oor surfaces must be evaluated by the
care provider.
• DO NOT attempt to operate the bed controls if the bed is not fully
assembled, as this may cause damage to the bed components.
• After the bed has been fully assembled, ALWAYS test to make sure that
all sections of the bed are properly and securely in place before using.
• ALWAYS use caster locks except when moving the bed.
• Body weight should be evenly distributed over the surface of the bed.
DO NOT lay, sit or lean in such a way that your entire body weight Is
placed only on raised head or foot sections of
the bed. This includes when assisting the user in repositioning or
transferring in or out of bed.
• DO NOT permit more than one person on/in the bed at any time.
• DO NOT use outdoors.
• If the unit is not working properly, discontinue use and call a qualied
technician to examine the unit and repair it.
• Keep all moving parts, including the main bed frame, mattress deck
(head and foot springs/sections) and all drive shafts free of obstruction
(i.e. blankets/sheets, heating blankets/pads, tubing, wiring, etc. and other
types of products using electric cords which may get tangled around the
bed, side rails or legs) during operation of the bed.
WARNINGS.
• Keep the product a minimum of 12” away from any direct heat source.
Make sure head and foot springs/sections are connected securely to the
bed ends before use.
• DO NOT use the bed to transport a person in or on the bed. Otherwise,
injury or damage may result.
• When transferring into or out of the bed, ALWAYS use lock the locking
caster(s). Inspect for correct locking action on caster locks before using
bed. Even with casters correctly locked, some oor surfaces, such as tile
or wood, may allow the bed to move under some conditions. Use on
oor surfaces such as these MUST be evaluated by the care provider.
• The initial set up of this bed must be performed by a qualied technician.
• The total weight limit of the ProBasics full-electric bed (including
accessories, mattress, occupant and any other person/object positioned
on the bed) is 450 pounds (204 kg.); 350 pounds (158 kg) patient weight.
• A safety feature of this bed model includes protection against
overheating caused by excessive or extended periods of operation.
Depending on the duration, this will include multiple/repeated
adjustments or the use of multiple functions at the same time. To ensure
trouble-free operation, ALWAYS allow a slight pause between multiple
adjustments and AVOID pressing multiple function buttons at a time.
If thermal protection is activated, the bed will not respond to pendant
commands. To resolve this, release the pendant button and let the bed
sit for several minutes. This will reset the protection function time to and
restore bed function. Depending on the degree of the overheating, this
may take up to 30 minutes.
• ALWAYS remove manual crank(s) before performing electronic functions
or using the bed. If not removed, the crank(s) will turn when the motor is
on and this could cause personal injury or damage to the bed. ALWAYS
unplug the bed from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• DO NOT open assemblies such as the motors, pendant, junction boxes
or gear boxes. There are no user serviceable parts. Only qualied
