Raising and lowering the bed

and that no obstructions limit the range of motion.

If the unit is equipped with an elevating
base, the bed can be raised or lowered
using the bed height pedals located on
the legs on either side of the warmer. The
bed height can be adjusted low enough for
use by a seated caregiver, or can be raised
high enough for procedures performed by
standing caregivers.
Fixed height bed models can be adjusted
by following the instructions found in the
service manual.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to adjust the fixed
base while a patient is in the bed.
After adjustments to the fixed base
height have been made, ensure the
fixed base is locked in place before
placing a patient in the bed.
