NSTALLATION AND
This chapter lists the basic tasks that must be fully performed before the bed is put into operation for the first time!
Consult Instructions for Use thoroughly.
•
•
Remove all packaging material from the bed and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way
Check the completeness of the delivery and its condition according to the delivery note. Record any deficiencies in
•
the copy of the delivery or transport note and send them in writing to the manufacturer or dealer.
Leave the bed to adapt to the ambient temperature
•
If the bed is free from all packaging and fixation elements, leave it for at least two hours without mattress and bedding in the room
where it will be used. This step is essential for adapting the temperatures of the individual parts of the bed to the environment in
which it will be used. If vapours are condensed on the bed structure, leave the bed at rest until the last traces of condensate disappear
from its structure.
While the temperature is balancing, read the COMPLETE Instructions for Use thoroughly.
•
Never perform the performance test before studying the entire Instructions for Use.
•
If the accessories are included in the delivery, install them according to the Instructions for Use.
•
•
Test the functionality of the individual parts of the bed according to the Instructions for Use
WARNING! The power supply cable of the bed propulsion must not be connected to two-way adaptors, similar splitters, extension
cables with one or more sockets, which are not approved for use in the country and which do not have approved input power of the
appliance at least 1000 W. None of the power supply cables may be conducted in such a way that they are squeezed, broken or
otherwise damaged when the bed and its parts are moving!
Insert the power supply cable plug into the 230 V/50-60 Hz power network socket. After insertion, the bed must not emit any sound
and must not move spontaneously. If that happens, immediately disconnect the power supply cable of the bed from the power supply
and contact an authorized service or supplier. When the plug is inserted into the network socket, the backup battery of the bed starts
to charge automatically. On the nurse panel display or patient controller, the LED diode indicating the connection of the bed to the
power network goes on as well as the pictogram indicating the charging of the backup battery. If the bed was out of service for a
long time before being connected to the network and the backup battery is completely discharged, let the bed fully charge. Fully
discharged backup batteries may not allow full parallel positioning of all parts of the bed, and if the backup battery is very low, joint
motion of multiple motors may be phased into the sequence of partial movements.
If the backup battery is charged, use the patient controller and gradually test the adjustment of all bed parts positions as described in
these Instructions below. If the movable parts of the bed do not start to move within five seconds, or if you hear that the bed motors
work excessively, stop positioning and disconnect the bed power supply cable from the power supply. Check, if there is no packaging
material left on the bed that could cause non-standard behaviour or if the nurse panel or some of its functions are not locked. If
necessary, unlock these functions, see Chapter 10.2, Manual Patient Controller. If no cause of malfunction is found on the bed,
contact the authorised service centre or manufacturer. If the bed is not working properly repeatedly, contact the service centre. If the
initial test of positioning takes place without any problems, you can start using the bed.
•
Keep the Instructions for Use safe
In case of any malfunction, disconnect the bed from the electrical network and contact the manufacturer or supplier
of the bed!
The manufacturer permits any major repairs and modifications to the bed in the authorised service centre or directly
at the manufacturer only. Minor defects can be removed on site by an authorised service technician!
