4. FUNCTIONING
4.1 Special safety warnings
·
When making the adjustments make sure that no parts of the body of any
patients, users and other people, especially children, are positioned under any
adjustable elements or under the bed frame to avoid being caught and injured.
·
Once you have made the necessary adjustments and positioned the bed rails
correctly, make sure to lock the backrest and leg adjustments possibilities with the hand
control, to protect the patient from unwanted movements (risk of crushing of his/her
limbs).
·
In case of use of accessories on the electric bed, make sure such accessories do not
crush or cut the patient with sharp edges during the legs and backrest adjustments. If
this condition is not guaranteed, the user must not proceed with the backrest and legs
adjustments.
·
Make sure the power cable and the hand control cable do not get caught anywhere or
get damaged.
·
Before each operation with the bed, make sure the power cable is not
stretched, crushed or damaged in any way.
·
When making the adjustments, make sure there are no obstructions such as
furniture or a ceiling inclination, to avoid possible damages.
As with all electrical appliances, despite the compliance with prescribed values,
it is not possible to totally exclude the possibility of interferences from other
electrical devices which might be nearby (for eg. the “buzz” of a radio). In such
a rare case, increase the distance of the bed from the interfering device, do not use the
same socket or temporarily disconnect such device.
