Mattress
platform height
These buttons raise and lower the mattress platform.
All sections will lower at maximum speed until the bed reaches low
height (40cm*) where it will continue to lower at half speed until it
has reached extra low height (32cm*).
(*Low height and extra low height dimensions are for reference only.)
NOTE
The mattress platform will not lower to extra low height if the bed
platform is tilted (in Trendelenburg or reversed Trendelenburg
position).
WARNING
Before lowering the bed, make sure that the space between the
mattress frame and chassis is free of persons, limbs, bedding or other
objects.
To avoid potential damage or injury, do not leave oxygen bottle or any
other obstacles under the bed frame while operated.
WARNING
At minimum height, clearance underneath the bed is reduced. Keep
your feet away from the areas below the split side rails and take extra
care when using patient hoists or similar equipment.
