Do not open the TABS
®
case for any reason, or remove the four screws
that hold the case together. The case is sealed and if the seal is broken,
the warranty will be voided. Call TABS Customer Service if your TABS
unit requires service.
Visual monitoring by caregivers is required. TABS Sidekicks pressure
pads may not be suitable for all high risk persons; restraints may be
required for some people.
When using the TABS Sidekick pressure pads, reinsert the disk after
each alarm to reset the TABS mobility monitor.
A 9V alkaline battery must always be installed for proper operation of
the TABS Professional monitoring system. The battery must be installed
for the low battery alert to sound when the battery is low and to act as a
battery back-up in the event of power loss on the TABS Professional.
An intermittent "chirp" indicates a low battery. Replace the battery
immediately. Use only 9V alkaline batteries. The TABS monitor does not
recharge batteries.
TABS Sidekicks pressure pads are designed for use with TABS monitors
only. Do not substitute any other fall monitoring devices.
Keep the pressure pads flat at all times. If the pressure pad is folded it
may not function properly. Do not use the pressure pad if it has been
folded.
Test the TABS monitoring system with each new resident. Resident
weight may affect proper operation. Models 26000, 26100 and 26550
pressure pads are not recommended for persons weighing less than
60 lbs (27kg).
Test your pressure pads and TABS monitor before each use. Make sure
your TABS mobility monitor is working properly. Using the pressure pad
for more than 90-days or one year (depending on model) is not
recommended. If the pressure pads are no longer working discard them
immediately.
Do not immerse in liquid, or use the pad if it has been immersed in
liquid. Discard the pad if exposed to liquids.
Make sure the bed pressure pad is attached with the enclosed clips and
bands. The pressure pad may not function properly if it is not attached
in this manner.
Do not use modular T-connectors with the TABS Professional. If modular
T-connectors are used, the device will not operate properly which could
result in injury or death to a person in your care.
