7 Putting into service
7.1 Safety information for putting into service
7.2 Safety information concerning the place of use
CAUTION
No electrical measurements are necessary prior to putting this bed into service for the first
time, since the bed was tested by the manufacturer for electrical safety and functionality and
left our factory in perfect condition.
Remove all transport securing devices (from the pedals) and packaging film (from the bed
frame). Clean and disinfect the bed.
Additional information on cleaning and disinfection is given in chapter Cleaning and disinfec-
tion » 108.
Use only authorised accessories (e.g. mattresses), to minimise endangering patients through
entrapment or falling out of bed.
When putting into service for the first time, carry out all measures described in the chapter
New occupancy after a change of patient » 53.
If equipped with a battery: When using the bed for the first time, fully charge the built-in bat-
teries to ensure that they reach their full capacity. To do so, connect the bed to the mains
supply for at least 10 hours. During this charging time, you can operate the electrical adjust-
ment functions without restriction using mains electricity.
This hospital bed is designed for multiple re-use. Ensure that the essential conditions speci-
fied in the following chapters are met:
•
New occupancy after a change of patient » 53
•
Cleaning and disinfection » 108
•
Maintenance » 111(in particular the section entitled Periodic inspection » 114)
Tipping hazard
Failure to heed this warning may result in a risk of injury and damage to property if the bed
is set up on a surface with more than a 5° incline. This can lead to the bed tipping up when
an additional load is exerted on one side of the bed, such as when a person sits down on it.
•
Place the bed on a level, horizontal surface only.
