Faults due to the use of mobile communications devices cannot be completely ruled out.
•
Therefore, maintain a safety distance of at least 3.3 m to guarantee reliable operation of the
homecare bed. ‑ See position paper of the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical
Products (BfArM) (reference No.: 9 / 0508) ‑
Do not leave children in the surroundings of the homecare bed unsupervised. If necessary,
•
remove the mains adapter from the mains power socket and block the manual control unit
against unauthorised operation.
If you leave the person to be cared for unsupervised, move the lying area to the lowest
•
position in order to reduce the risk of injury due to falling when getting in and out of the bed
or by falling out.
If the homecare bed has to be moved, lower the lying area elements so that they are horizontal
•
and put the bed in the lowest position. Raise the side grills for the patient transport. Attached
equipment must be removed.
Use the side grills if there is a danger of the person to be cared for falling out of the bed.
•
Note that the side grill only provides protection against falling out if it is raised on both sides
(head and foot) and if the lying area elements such as back, thigh and lower leg part are in the
horizontal position.
Only use original side grills as these have been approved by aks and ensure faultless and safe
•
function.
‑‑ Non-original aks side grills can cause hazards! ‑‑
When using the side grills, check their suitability for the respective bed user taking account
•
of his special characteristics. Pay particular attention to the distances between the bars and
stays in relation to the physique of the bed user. Check whether the side grill height from
the top side of the mattress is at least 220 mm. If this is less than 220 mm, use our tested and
approved side grill height extenders.
There is a higher risk for unsupervised persons lying in the bed who are also mentally
•
deranged or extremely fragile. Strictly comply with the safety instructions shown here in order
to minimise the residual risk. Block the manual control unit if necessary.
In the case of unusual noises, damage or malfunction, the homecare bed must not be further
•
operated. Disconnect the homecare bed from the mains power supply by unplugging the
mains adapter from the mains power socket. Inform your authorised dealer.
