When TurnAid T4 is connected to the power supply, it is secured against unintended
movement, as the TurnAid T4 will only start by double clicking (2 long pushes)
.
Unauthorised persons such as visitors or the patient cannot start the system. Should the
patient accidentally be lying on a hand control, the person cannot activate TurnAid T4. Lying
on a hand control gives one long push and this is insufficient to start the system! Electrical
functions were secured against unintended operation as defined double clicking on the ON
button is ALWAYS needed to activate the system. Furthermore, the system has a built-in
timer which will turn off the system after 90 seconds.

If foot controls are installed on the Turn Aid T4, these will be placed under the bed out of
reach of unauthorised persons.

The ON button works as safety stop if here should be a malfunction of the buttons of hand
control, or if someone accidentally presses a foot control switch whilst the system is
connected to the power supply (so the motor rolls will be activated), the activated function
can always be stopped if you push one of these buttons for more than 2 seconds. Then the
motor rolls cannot be operated until you start again as usually with 2 pushes of
