TO RAISE A SIDE-RAIL TO THE HIGH POSITION
■ Grasp the upper rail of the side-rail.
■ Pull it from its retracted position towards you.
■ Rotate towards the outside of the bed. It will automatically latch in
the high position.
DANGER
Make sure that side-rail is locked in its raised position.
Never hit sides of bed on walls or furniture, particularly
during transportation.
Wall bumpers located at the head of the bed will not prevent
damage to side-rails caused by blows to side of bed.

3. Rotate the side-rail:
• towards the foot of the bed for side-rails located at foot end;

A sticker indicates which direction to rotate each safety side-rail.
4. Once the side-rail is in low position, push to its retracted position
under the sleeping surface.
