The SB755 TM bed fulfills all requirements regarding maximum distances. How-
ever, if the bed is used for the care of patients with small body dimensions, it
must be especially noted that there is a risk of such a patient slipping through
the openings between the side rails or through the opening between the side
rail and the mattress support.
The bed must not be used by patients under 12 years of age, or by patients
with body size equivalent to an average 12 years old or smaller.
The bed, in combination with side rails, must not be used for persons under
45 kg or under 150 cm´s height, or for persons that are restless (spasms)
or confused, unless a professional risk assessment has taken place and been
accepted, or a correctly installed safety cover on the side rails are used.
When using side rails and the according safety cover, it is essential to ensure
correct fitting -
otherwise there is danger of entrapment / suffocation
between mattress support, side rail and bed end!
If the bed is used by restless (spasms) or confused persons, an ACP box can
be used for blocking the hand control functions, and / or a limitation cross bar
installed under the leg section of the mattress support. This cross bar will
prevent the leg section from being lowered below the level of the mattress
support, thereby reducing the opening between leg section and bed end.
Ensure the bed is adjusted to it’s lowest position before leaving the bed unat-
tended - thereby the effect of fall-down / entrapment accidents is reduced.
There is risk of squeezing in the Victoria bed end (with removable plate).
Always make sure the plate is correctly secured by pulling the plate upwards
after installation.
Invacare® accepts no liability for any use, change or assembly
of the product other than as stated in this User Manual.
When entering or exiting the bed, the height adjustment should be used. Furthermore, the
backrest can be used as support (yellow button on the hand control). However, the thigh- and
leg section must be horizontal, otherwise, there is risk of overloading of the mattress support.
