SAFETY GUIDELINES
1. The instructions must be read and followed before using
the patient bed.
2. Explanation of symbols on the type label.
CE Conformity label according to the medical
products guidelines
IPX4 Electrical equipment splash proof
“Use only in dry rooms”
Safety class II (double insulation,
reinforced insulation)
The information on the type label must be observed.
3. The bed may not be operated in case of malfunctions or
defects that could endanger persons.
4. Electric patient beds may be operated only by trained
personnel.
5. Before operating the bed, the user must check it for safe
function and proper operating condition.
6. To avoid the danger of falls when patients get in and
out of bed, the brakes on the wheels should always be
locked.
7. The bed can be transported in various positions. Please
ensure that no body parts or other objects are in the ad-
justable areas.
8. Only nursing staff may adjust the side rails. Please en-
sure that the patient is not touching the side rails when
changing mattress position to avoid crushing body parts.
9. The function of the side rails must be inspected daily and
they may not be loaded more than 70 kg in vertical po-
sition or 50 kg in horizontal position.
10. When lowering the mechanical emergency back rest (op-
tion) it must always be supported to prevent a sudden
collapse.
11. The functions of the manual control can be blocked or
activated by an additional switch on the back. The action
of the blocking function must be checked on the manual
control.
12. The drive mechanism used must be supplied with power
from a VDF power source – power adaptor 220 V, 50 Hz.
13. The power cable has an additional mechanical strain re-
lief. Still, care should be taken to protect the cable from
sharp edges and crushing or abrasion.
14. The layout of the manual control device allows it to be
placed in the holder so that the buttons are not accidently
activated between two objects. It should be ensured that
the manual control is freely accessible and not blocked
between the side rails and nightstand.
15. When using the bed in the patient room, ensure to main-
tain safe distances from the walls, windowsills, or other
furnishings. The safe distances are determined depen-
ding on the design and model of the bed and the height
adjustment and positioning. The minimum distance is 30
mm.
