IMPORTANT: Test your bed exit alarm pad and control unit on a regular basis to ensure it is in proper
working order. The sensor pad should be replaced after one year, or at any time it has been determined not to
be functioning properly
Sensor Pad Replacement
To replace the sensor pad, disconnect the sensor pad connection cable and remove the sensor pad from the
seat section of the mattress deck. Cut the plastic tie wraps that secure the cable to the bed frame. Place the
new sensor pad on the seat section and re-route the cable along the bed frame, securing the cable to the frame
rails with plastic tie wraps. Ensure that the jack is fully plugged into the “Pad” port on the control unit.
