2 Safety
2.1 General safety information
WARNING!
Risk of entrapment / suffocation
There’s a risk of entrapment / suffocation
between mattress support, side rail and bed end
or between moving parts and objects placed
nearby the bed.
– The bed must not be used by persons under 12
years of age, or by persons with a body size
equivalent to an average 12 years old or smaller.
– The bed, in combination with side rails must
not be used by persons having a physical size
less than 146 cm, a weight less than 40 kg or a
body mass index (BMI) less than 17.
– Due to mattress compression, an increased
risk may occur over time. Periodically monitor
gaps between the bed, mattress and/or side
rail. Replace mattress if the gaps may lead to
entrapment.
WARNING!
Risk of slipping through the openings
The bed fulfils all requirements regarding
maximum distances. However, it is possible
that persons with small body dimensions slip
through the openings between the side rails or
through the opening between the side rail and
the mattress support.
– Pay special attention, if the bed is used for the
care of persons with small body dimensions.
WARNING!
Risk due to electromagnetic interference
Electromagnetic interference between the bed
and other electrical products can occur.
– To reduce or eliminate such electromagnetic
interference, increase the distance between the
bed and the products or switch them off.
This medical bed can be used together with
medical electrical equipment connected to
the heart (intracardially) or blood vessels
(intravascularly) provided that following points
are respected:
– Medical electrical equipment should not be
fixed on the bed’s metallic accessories such as
side rails, lifting pole, drip rod, bed ends, etc.
– The medical electrical equipment power supply
cord should be kept clear of the accessories or
any other moving parts of the bed.
WARNING!
Risk of injury or damage to property
– Do not roll the castors over the main power
cord.
– Do not bring main power cord into moving
parts.
– Disconnect the plug from the mains before
moving the bed.
– Make sure that no wires (mains or from other
equipment) are jammed or damaged, when the
bed is used.
– Keep bed components and accessories at least
30 cm away from a heated surface and not in
direct sunlight.
CAUTION!
There is a risk of entrapment of fingers in the
bed moving parts.
– Pay attention to your fingers.
CAUTION!
– For a user entering or exiting the bed, always
lower the bed to an appropriate height. The
backrest can be used as a support. Make sure,
the thigh- and leg section is horizontal to avoid
overloading the mattress support.
– Always lower the bed to the lowest position
before leaving the patient in the bed
unattended.
– Make sure that there is nothing under, over,
or near the bed that can obstruct the height
adjustment, like for example furniture, lifts or
window frames.
2.2 Mattresses
WARNING!
Safety aspects regarding combination of side
rails and mattresses:
To get the highest possible safety level, when
using side rails on the bed, the minimum and
maximum measures for mattresses, must be
respected.
– For correct mattress measures see mattress
table in chapter 8 Technical data, page 24 .
WARNING!
Risk of entrapment and/or suffocation
– The user could get trapped and/or suffocate, if
the horizontal space, between the mattress side
and the inside of the side rail, is too big. Follow
the minimum width (and length) of mattresses
in combination with a side rail, as stated in
the mattress table in chapter
8 Technical data,
page 24 .
– Be aware that using very thick or soft
mattresses (low density), or a combination of
these, increases the risk.
