Weighing System
The weigh system should be re-calibrated before the date of expiry shown on the
bed. Make sure the bed is re-calibrated every 12 months.
Battery Test
Check the condition of the backup battery by carrying out the following test.
1. Disconnect the bed from the electricity supply.
2. Raise the deck to maximum height - ignore the battery warning tone.
3. Raise the backrest and thigh sections to highest position.
4. Press and hold the CPR button. The deck will flatten and lower to a
mid-height position.
5. Lower the deck to minimum height.
6. Apply maximum head down tilt (Trendelenburg).
7. Return the deck to the level position; then apply maximum foot down tilt
(reverse Trendelenburg).
If this test is not completed successfully, connect the bed to the electricity supply
for at least eight hours to recharge the battery then perform the test again. If
the bed fails a second time, contact ArjoHuntleigh or an ArjoHuntleigh-approved
service agent.
To maintain best performance, the backup battery should be replaced every four
years by an ArjoHuntleigh-approved service agent.
