Using the VENDLET in combination with bed functionality
Neither the VENDLET V5 nor the VENDLET V5+
interferes with the functionality of the bed.
Slacken the turning sheet before raising the back,
thigh, and/or foot part of the bed. If the VENDLET
V5 or VENDLET V5+ is being used as side rails,
you must remove the plastic sides before raising
the back, thigh and/or foot part of the bed.
Under normal circumstances, the bed surface
must be level before you use the VENDLET V5 or
VENDLET V5+. In some situations, however, it may be advantageous to use the back
or foot part of the bed when moving or turning patients. For example, if the patient
has wide hips and frail shoulders, he/she will rest more comfortably on the bed if the
head and foot parts are raised a little before the process.
Stop button
The power button
also functions as a stop button.
If the hand control button controlling the tightening of the sheet fails, the operation
can be stopped by pressing the
button.
