Mattress
platform height
These buttons raise and lower the mattress platform.
All sections will lower at maximum speed until the bed reaches low height
(40cm*) where it will continue to lower at half speed until it has reached extra
low height (32cm*).
(*Low height and extra low height dimensions are for reference only.)
NOTE
The mattress platform will not lower to extra low height if the bed platform is tilted
(in Trendelenburg or reversed Trendelenburg position).
WARNING
Before lowering the bed, make sure that the space between the mattress frame and
chassis is free of persons, limbs, bedding or other objects.
WARNING
At minimum height, clearance underneath the bed is reduced. Keep your feet away
from the areas below the split side rails and take extra care when using patient hoists
or similar equipment.
