EQUIREMENTS
There must be sufficient room available to accommodate the bed’s entire
range of adjustments. Obstacles such as bedside cabinets, supply rails,
furniture, or windowsills must not impede adjustments.
Before using the bed on parquet flooring, check whether the castors can
leave marks on the parquet varnish. We accept no liability for such wear. The
bed can be used on tiles, carpet, linoleum or laminate flooring without causing
any damage.
A properly installed and earthed mains socket must be available close to the
bed, at the head end.
The supply voltage of this mains socket must comply with the information on
the electrical rating plate on the bed (located at the head end, facing
inwards towards the bed).
If other equipment (e.g. compressors for positioning systems, etc.) is attached,
ensure that all items of equipment are fixed securely and function properly.
Pay special attention here to the safe routing of all loose connector cables,
tubing, etc. If you have any queries or concerns, consult the manufacturer of
the equipment or Stiegelmeyer.
Minimise, as far as possible, the risk of fire due to external influences.
Instruct users on these points:
Use only flame-retardant mattresses and bedding if possible.
Avoid smoking in bed, since the mattress and bedding used may
not be resistant to smokers' accessories.
Only use additional equipment (e.g. electric blankets) and other
electrical devices (e.g. lamps, radios) that are in perfect working
order!
-
Ensure that this equipment is used only for the purpose intended.
-
Ensure that this equipment is not unintentionally placed on or
under the bedding (danger of overheating)!
Avoid using extension cables or multiple socket bars under the bed
(risk of fire due to penetrating fluids).
Extension cables and/or multiple socket outlets should not be used
at all.
