Slots for posey belts
A modern high-capacity lithium ion battery can be used for temporary emergency operation
of the electrical drive system. This guarantees that all electric adjustments can be carried out
even during a power cut.
Emergency operation
When the bed is occupied by a patient of normal weight (approx. 80 kg), up to 30 full UP/
DOWN adjustments can be made if the battery is new and fully charged.
Under emergency conditions, if the battery capacity is depleted, a signal tone will sound and
all adjustments will be stopped.
Charging/charge indicator
The batteries are automatically fully charged when the bed has been connected to the mains
supply for at least 10 - 12 hours.
It is impossible to overcharge the battery.
During the charging process, the bed can be adjusted electrically in the normal way without
restriction.
Lithium ion batteries have a considerably longer lifetime than conventional lead-acid batter-
ies. In normal use, this service life is up to eight years.
Batteries need to be replaced when operation cycles become very short. For safety reasons,
at least one more height adjustment (up + down) should always be possible. Otherwise, the
batteries must be replaced. In this case, contact Stiegelmeyer’s service centre. We will re-
place rechargeable batteries and dispose of the old batteries correctly.
A multi-stage charge indicator on the LCD handset/control box display keeps you informed
about the current charge status:
