Electricity
supply
Connect the mains plug to a suitable socket outlet. Make sure
the plug is easily accessible so it can be disconnected quickly
in an emergency.
Power supply cord and potential equalisation terminal
When the bed is connected to the electricity supply, an
indicator will light on the Attendant Control Panel (see
page 27).
The power supply cord (
1
) is fitted with a plastic hook (
2
).
When not in use or before moving the bed, clip the hook onto
the head board, coil up the cable and place it over the hook as
shown.
To isolate the bed from the electricity supply, disconnect the
mains plug from the socket outlet.
A potential equalisation terminal (
3
) is located at the head end
of the bed.
When other electrical equipment is within reach of the patient
or caregiver, potential differences between the equipment can
be minimised by connecting together their potential
equalisation terminals.
Underbed
light
The underbed light illuminates the floor on either side of the
bed.
The underbed light is always on unless the bed is in its low
power state; refer to the section “Low power mode” on
page 32.
