Before using the bed, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the Instructions for Use and carry out the operation
only in accordance with them!
The bed may only be operated by the persons who are familiar with the Instructions for Use in detail!
The bed must not be used, if it is not in perfect condition, especially if there were found the defects that could harm
a patient, operating personnel, the bed itself, etc.!
Use the bed only in the interior and on flat floors!
The bed must not be overloaded!
The bed is intended for one patient only!
The bed may only be used with an electric socket for which it is intended!
When a patient remains unsupervised by health care personnel, set the bed to the lowest position!
According to the decision of the health care professional, partial bed functions may be used by the patient after
thorough training by the health care professional!
The bed must always be properly braked apart from its transport. Medical staff must always make sure that the bed
is braked before use. If the bed is not braked, there may exist an increased risk of injury, especially when standing
from a sitting position, seating on the bed or leaning against it!
Bed transport is only possible with properly lifted and secured siderails to increase patient safety!
Before handling the siderails, make sure that there is no risk of injury to the patient or damage to other objects due
to squeezing in the moving parts or falling out of the bed!
When adjusting the bearing area height, there must be no objects between the bed frame and the chassis (floor) –
they could be damaged or the operator or a third party may be injured!
When adjusting the back part, there must not be any objects between the bed frame, the bedhead and the back part
– they could be damaged or the patient, the operator or a third party may be injured!
Adjustment to the special verticalization position may only be carried out by healthcare professionals!
Before adjusting to the vertical position, insert the bedding rack into the basic position under the bed!
The network cable must always be routed in such a way to avoid its damage due to winding around the moving parts
or pressing between them – there is a serious risk of electric shock due to damage!
The bed must not be positioned to the vertical position, if the accessories are installed on it (trapeze bar, infusion
stand, etc.), there may be an increased risk of their falling out!
Service interventions must only be performed by a service centre authorized by the manufacturer using original
spare parts!
Risk of injury to a patient, operator, third party or damage to the surrounding equipment may arise mainly from:
-
unauthorized use,
-
a careless procedure when adjusting the back or foot part position,
a careless procedure, when adjusting the height of the bearing area,
-
-
adjusting the bed with the patient to special positions – especially verticalization,
-
operating the bed on the surface for which it is not intended,
maintenance in an unauthorised manner or by an unauthorised person,
-
-
careless height adjustment of the bearing area,
-
when using a special mattress designated for achieving a prophylactic or therapeutic effect!
The bed is powered from the electrical network and can therefore interfere with extremely sensitive devices. During
the development of the bed, the utmost was done to minimize the risk of adverse electromagnetic influences. The bed
is manufactured in full compliance with harmonised standard EN 60601-1-2. When using the bed in full compliance
with the Instructions for Use, you can avoid any problems!
