Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Release (Optional)

Activation of the CPR release may cause attendant or resident injury. Use with Caution.
Use the CPR release only for emergency situations. This function will rapidly bring the

backrest, and another to hold and gently guide the backrest down.
PINCH-POINT hazard exists when guiding the backrest during CPR release.
Avoid placing hands directly between the adjustable backrest and the bed frame. Place
hands only on the outside of the backrest, away from the bed frame.

When using the CPR Release function, it is recommended to use two people; one person to release the backrest at the foot
end of the bed and another person to gently guide the backrest to a horizontal position.

second person is recommended to
