Quick Adjustment of the Backrest
This procedure can be carried out from either of the long sides of the bed.
1.
Lower any safety sides that are raised, at least on the side chosen to
perform the procedure, to make it easier to reach the bed.
2.
With one hand, grasp the grab handle [
5
] on the backrest.
3.
With the other hand, pull the operating lever [
11
], which is located under
the mattress base near the backrest, upwards and guide the backrest
down to the desired position using the grab handle
[5]
.
4.
The backrest is not held in position until the operating lever [
11
] is released.
As soon as the drive system is connected to the mains supply again,
the backrest can be adjusted using the handset or control box.
If there is no load on the backrest and it is steeply raised, it must be
pushed down manually in addition.
After actuating the operating lever, a heavy patient may cause the
backrest to fall down!
Always grip the backrest by the grab handle [
5
] with one hand so as
to “control” the adjustment.
