Make sure that the mattress is correctly installed and well centered on the sleep
surface using the adjustable clamps (2 positions: S and L) and that the foot is secured
by the clamp to avoid the creation of entrapment zones.
Other mattresses may be used, but the manufacturer must always be consulted to
make sure that the bed/mattress/siderail combination does not affect the bed's
performance, its suitability for use or its safety characteristics.
Users must check the compatibility of the patient's weight and the accessories placed
on the bed and the mattress system in view of the specifications of the medical bed and
the mattress system.
For beds made after June 1, 2018, it is imperative to use hard surfaces with clamps
marked (A) to prevent the hard surface from sliding and the adjustable head section
from becoming blocked when lowering.
