Service and maintenance of the SB755
received the necessary instruction or training.
With normal daily use, service must be carried out according to the service schedule,
after 2 years of use and thereafter every second year.
When moving the bed, service must be carried out according to the service schedule.
We recommend a safety test comprising the motors' performance and mechanical state
once a year.
Motors, hand control and control unit:
These parts are serviced by exchanging the faulty part.

10. Beds equipped with back-up battery

A bed with accumulator back up is equipped with an additional box next to the control unit.
Preventive maintenance
The accumulators have to be exchanged after 4 years. Depending on how the back-up is used
the exchange may have to take place earlier. Frequent, sudden discharges reduce the back-up's
life. It is recommended that the accumulators are tested at least once a year.
Accumulators are not damaged by continuous connection to the mains.
Exchanging the accumulators
Accumulators must be exchanged as sets and replaced with accumulators of the same type or
mechanically and electrically compatible accumulators:
The accumulators are delivered as a pair under
order no.: 818323 (12V - 1,2 Ah).
Accumulators must be new and charged at least every
6 months for maintenance purposes.
Accumulators in a set must have identical production codes.
Prior to insertion, make sure that the accumulator set is
correctly connected cf. the drawing (in the accumulator box),
and that none of the connections are loose.
Waste disposal
Old accumulators may be returned to Invacare
batteries.
