CAUTIONS
DO NOT MODIFY CHAIR
Modifying chair can cause unpredictable operation resulting in injury to patient,
medical personnel, or bystander. Modifying chair will void warranty and may
cause unsafe operating conditions.
USE SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES
Prior to operating chair, ensure patient clearance by moving any overhanging
equipment or moving chair from under a table to prevent patient injury.
TMM3 must be at least 20" from nearest wall or obstruction to allow for full range
of activation.
Leave chair in lowest position whenever possible. This practice will decrease
potential injury during an unsupervised patient egress from chair.
Prior to patient transport in chair, raise side rails and ensure latching mechanism is
in locked position. Medical personnel must determine degree of restraint needed
to ensure patient’s safety during transport.
To prevent personal injury to medical personnel and/or patient, ensure the back
extension is properly installed and securely engaged prior to transporting patient/
chair, and prior to use of IV system.
For “F” Option Only
: Since footrest is foldable (not locked in position), ensure
protection of patient’s feet while moving chair in close quarters (i.e. elevators,
crowded hallways, procedure rooms).
INSPECT AND CLEAN CHAIR REGULARLY
Inspect cushions after each use. Discontinue use if upholstery is ripped, cut, or
torn, which could allow fluids to enter cushion. This practice will prevent infection
of patients and medical personnel and contamination of medical equipment.
Do
NOT
use machine / pressure / power wash procedures on chair. After each
use in a clinical setting, hand wash all patient-contact surfaces (i.e. cushions, rails)
and plastic base cover with warm water and mild detergent.
For “A” Option Only
: For large fluid spills on chair, immediately unplug chair from
AC wall outlet.
PLUG CHAIR INTO PROPERLY GROUNDED WALL OUTLET MARKED
“HOSPITAL ONLY” OR “HOSPITAL GRADE”
For “A” Option Only
: Chair is equipped with hospital-grade three-prong plug for
protection against electric shock and must be plugged into properly grounded
hospital-grade wall outlet.
