SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
It is important that the following safety instructions are ob-
served to prevent risks to residents and carers and to avoid
any damage to the bed:
The instruction manual must be read and observed before
using the care bed.
The information on the rating plate must be observed! The
information on the rating plate is explained in detail on
p. 18 of this instruction manual.
In the event of any faults or defects that could endanger
persons, the bed must not be used.
Electrically adjustable care beds must only be operated by
the resident following instruction by trained sta.
Before the bed is used for the rst time, the operator must
ensure that it is safe to use and in good condition.
The castors must always be set to the braked position to
ensure the resident does not fall when getting into or out of
the bed.
The bed can be moved into various positions. When doing
so, take care to ensure no parts of the body or other ob-
jects are located in the adjustment area.
Only care sta are permitted to adjust the side rails. When
adjusting the sleeping surface position, take care to ensure
the resident does not come into contact with the side rails
to avoid trapping any part of the body.
The functionality of the side rails must be
checked every day. They must not bear any load of over
75 kg vertically or over 50 kg horizontally.
When using CPR (optional, mechanical emergency lowering
of the back rest), always additionally relieve the load on the
back rest by hand to prevent the back rest from dropping in
an uncontrolled manner.
The IMPULSE and AURA care beds feature a battery-op-
erated emergency mode. This allows the one-o lowering
of the sleeping surface in the event of a power cut. The 9-V
batteries (not used in the HB-400 hand controller) in the
control unit must be checked during the annual technical
safety check and replaced at least every two years.
The functions of the hand controller can be locked
or released by means of a key switch on the rear side
(p. 21-20 hand controller symbol) or with a magnetic
chip on the front side (p. 24 hand controller symbol).
Check that the locking function has taken eect on the hand
controller.
The drive system used must be operated using a VDE-ap-
proved power source – 100–240 V, 50 / 60 Hz mains socket.
