4.1 General Safety Instructions
During the briefing, specific attention must be drawn to any potential
i
dangers for the first time, the instruction manual must be read
conscientiously and in detail by the user / care personnel.
Any incidents or issues must be reported to Opera at, support@
operabeds.com. Serious incidents should be reported to Opera and the
component authority of the member state.
When the mattress is used with a care bed make sure that the mattress
meets the requirements of the care bed, failure to do this may result in
causing entrapment hazards and injury.
When using the mattress with side rails, the side rail height from the top
of the mattress in an uncompressed condition and the top edge of the
side rail must be a minimum of 220mm, failure to comply may result in
injury caused by entrapment or falls.
If the cover is compromised the mattress should be withdrawn from use
immediately, if the foam and cover are compromised the mattress and
cover should be withdrawn from use immediately and replaced. Failure
to withdraw the mattress and cover from use poses a significant risk of
infection to the patient and any carers.
Do not pierce or compromise the mattress cover, this will compromise the
foam and poses a significant risk of infection to the user and any carers.
Do not use the mattress without the mattress cover, failing to observe
this warning will compromise the infection and control properties of the
mattress, this may result in the development of infections, sores, and
other alignments.
Do not store the mattress near heating devices such as electrical fires,
radiators, or sources of heat, this may result in fire leading to serious
injury, property damage and death.
