WARNING! For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk
of electric shock, fire, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
WARNING! POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH. This bed is intended for use as an
adjustable mattress deck surface. Use of this product in any way other than the intended use, could
result in injury or death.
WARNING! Make sure the bed is in the lowest position when the patient is left unattended. This
can reduce the severity of any injuries resulting from patient falls.
WARNING! Except for when the bed is being moved, the brakes should always be set (locked).
After applying the brakes test the motion of the bed to ensure that the brakes are properly engaged.
Patients use the bed for support when getting in or out of bed and could be injured if the bed
unexpectedly moves.
WARNING! Bed safe working load is 600 pounds. This is a total weight including resident/patient,
mattress, bedding accessories and any other equipment or persons likely to be on the bed. Do not
exceed 600 pounds safe working load. Exceeding the safe working load could result in property
damage, injury or death.
WARNING! When lowering the bed, ensure that no person, limbs, bedding or any foreign objects
are between the bed frame and the floor. Ensure that Over-bed tables and patient lifts are safely
removed.
WARNING! Ensure that no body parts or objects are under the mattress decks when lowering
them.
WARNING! POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH Use only the proper size mattress that
will minimize the gap between the side of the mattress and the side rails. The gap must be small
enough to prevent the patient from getting his/her neck caught in this zone (read the FDA Entrapment
Guidelines for further information).
WARNING! POSSIBLE INJURY When the bed is in the 76” configuration and the head
deck is being raised, it is important to ensure that the area between the foot end channel and the fixed
bed frame is clear of body parts, bedding or any foreign objects. Failure to do so could result in injury,
or damage to the bed.
WARNING! POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH The Mattress Stops help control the
Entrapment Zone gaps between the Mattress, Side rails, the Head and Foot Boards. Improper
mounting or absence of Mattress Stops could result in entrapment injury or death. Ensure the Mattress
fills the entire width and length of the sleeping deck with the corners of the Mattress snuggly fitted
within the Mattress Stops.
CAUTION! Care must be made to ensure that the resident does not fall-on or slide-over the
mattress side stops which may cause injury.
