Care-Fit Integrated Width Expansion
(optional)
The EasyCare Care-Fit Integrated Width Expansion
option allows the mattress support platform (MSP) to
be set at a bed width of 35", 39", or 42". If your Joerns
bed has been configured with the Care-Fit option the
following steps will provide adequate instruction on the
operation of this feature.
1.
If applicable, remove the sleep surface.
2. Locate the width expansion spring pin with tether
on any of the six MSP extensions (Figure 27).
3.
Pull the tether in the direction towards the floor to
allow the MSP extension to move freely.
4.
Slide the MSP extension to the desired width. Note
the width indicator found on the head and foot
extensions (Figure 28 and 29).
5. Release the tether to engage the detent
(Figure 27).
6. Repeat the above steps on the remaining
MSP extensions.
Warning: Possible Injury Or Death.
Use a mattress
that is properly sized to fit mattress deck, that will
remain centered on mattress deck relative to State and
Federal guidelines. Joerns Healthcare recommends
the use of a mattress with minimum dimensions of
35 inches wide and 6 inches deep. Length should
match mattress support platform. Use of an improperly
fitted mattress could result in injury or death. If using
CareWide or the bed is equipped with Care-Fit, Joerns
Healthcare recommends the use of a mattress with a
minimum width of 39 inches for a 39 inch setting and
42 inches for 42 inch setting.

any width expansion accessory kit to a Joerns bed
equipped with the Care-Fit integrated width expansion
feature. Failure to comply may cause the bed to
become unstable, leading to a possible injury or
equipment failure.
