NOTE:
Refer to the mattress control panel to determine the active surface mode. An illuminated indicator shows the active
mode.
CAUTION:
A sound risk assessment and protocol is necessary to determine the appropriate surface for the patient’s
condition.
CAUTION:
The sleep surface impermeability and pressure relieving capabilities could be affected by needle sticks or other
bladder punctures. Caregivers should be instructed to avoid bladder punctures caused by needle sticks or
improper use of x-ray cassette holders. The sleep surface should be regularly inspected for such damage.
NOTE:
Patients with body weight or length near the recommended limits should be monitored more frequently for desired
results (see “Technical Specifications” on page 3).
Accessory AC Receptacle Option (120 V Beds Only)
The optional, accessory receptacle, located at the foot of the bed, is a convenient
source of AC power for accessory devices. It should not be used for life support
equipment, since it introduces additional over-current limitations, and grounding
connections into the supply line.
Beds that incorporate the accessory receptacle option are equipped with two power
cords. Electrical isolation is provided between accessory receptacle and bed
supplies and grounds, so that leakage current from faulty equipment, plugged into
the receptacle, will not, under fault conditions (loss-of-ground in the receptacle or wall supply), become part of the risk
current for the bed.
WARNING:
Risk of power outage. Do not use accessory outlet for life support equipment. Plug life support equipment
directly into hospital supply. Do not plug bed and auxiliary receptacle into wall receptacles on the same circuit.
The Advanta™ Bed accessory receptacle is overload protected by an 8A circuit breaker. Since the bed is rated 12A
under fully loaded, worst case operating conditions, and the receptacle is rated 8A, the combination could exceed the
capacity of a single supply circuit. Therefore, the bed and receptacle should always be plugged into separate supply
circuits.
Grounding continuity should be checked periodically. Receptacle is rated 120V, 60Hz, 8 Amps, single phase.
SHOCK HAZARD:
Electrical shock hazard. Refer servicing to qualified personnel. This bed is provided with two power cords.
Unplug both cords before opening service compartment, J-box, or receptacle.
