BATTERY
It is equipped with a battery for operation in case it is not possible to connect to the
power supply.
The charging time is about 10-12 hours with completely discharged battery.
It is advisable to make sure that the batteries do not drain completely, but
recharge them frequently in order to achieve a longer service life.
Batteries must be replaced, depending on use, at least after 3 years.
To optimise the life of the batteries, the control units must be connected to the network
as much as possible. Batteries must be recharged at least every 3 months. Otherwise
they are damaged and self-discharge.
When the bed is powered only by the extra battery you can perform 20 complete
movements.
When the battery reaches 50% of its charge each movement emits an audible alarm.
An operation test is recommended at least once a year.
Batteries shall only be replaced by models having the mechanical and electrical
characteristics of the following types:
▪ KOBE 1.2-6 (6V, 1.2 Ah)
▪ YUASA 1.2-6 (6V,1.2 Ah)
▪ PBQ 1.2-12 (12V, 1.2ah)
▪ KOBE1.2-12 (12V,1.2ah)
Make sure the ventilation hole is intact. The ventilation hole allows the exit of the battery
gases but does not allow the penetration of water.
WARNING: The battery has no capacity to ensure the operation of the bed for long
periods but only serves as a buffer in case of temporary power failure. Connect the bed
to the mains as soon as possible.
