4.3.8 Using the Pivoting Footboard as a Table (Optional)
 When making any adjustments with the footboard inserted, always
ensure that there are no patient limbs in the way that could
become trapped.
 Ensure that the mobilisation supports [17] are only swung out as far
as engagement position
“1” in order to avoid trapping the patient;
see Chapter 4.3.5.1.

For obese patients, check whether it is possible to use the table
function with the larger body mass without risking entrapment of the
patient.
 Ensure that the patient cannot use the NURSE handset in any case.
 Ensure that the footboard [20] is correctly inserted:
 The sticker must be visible on the outer side of the bed.
 It must be possible to fold the footboard down horizontally (linen
holder function; see Chapter 4.4.3) but only slightly slanted
inwards towards the middle of the bed.

Otherwise, remove the headboard (see Chapter 4.3.5), turn it a
half revolution and insert it again.
 Max. load for table top: 15 kg
 Do not sit on it!
