Pendant Operation
A safety feature of this product includes protection against overheating caused by
excessive or extended periods of operation. Depending on the duration, this
includes multiple or repeated adjustments or the use of multiple functions at one
time. To assure trouble free operation, ALWAYS allow a slight pause between
multiple adjustments and avoid pressing more than one function button at a time. If
thermal protection activation should occur, the bed will not respond to pendant
commands. Given this situation, release the pendant button and allow the bed unit
to sit for several minutes. This will allow the protection function time to reset and
restore bed function. Depending on the severity of the initial overheating, this could
take up to 30 minutes.
On Full Electric beds, the Hi/Lo crank MUST be removed before the bed is used.
Failure to remove the crank may cause damage or personal injury.
