Any missing parts, faults or damage must be reported
immediately to the carrier, and Accora, in writing.
When moving the bed, or loading and unloading it,
care must be taken that the bed castors can rotate
freely and the castor brakes are unlocked. The bed
castors are designed for use in an indoor environment
and for travel on even, smooth and clean floors, (e.g.
ceramic floor tiles, linoleum, cast floors). The castors
may become damaged when moving the bed along
a rough, uneven or dirty surface.
2. Safety Instructions

understand the bed and its functionality.
6. The safe working load, as specified in section 4,
must never be exceeded.
7. If there is a patient on the bed, the bed castors
must be locked as an unlocked bed castor can
cause injury to a patient who leaves the bed or
changes position.
8. The height of the mattress platform must be
adjusted to the correct height for the condition of
the patient.
9. Only one person should occupy the bed at any
time.

be disconnected.
13. The bed may not be used where there is a danger
of explosion or in the presence of inflammable
liquids.
14. When repairing the bed, only original materials
and components may be used, otherwise the
manufacturer cannot guarantee against any
damage that might occur.
3. Intended use
This bed is intended for use in the following application
environments only:
1. Application Environment 3 - Long-term care in a
medical area where medical supervision is

8. Positioning
The handset can be used for positioning the sections
and for adjusting the height of the mattress platform of
the bed by either the patient or the carer.
Always check for obstruction before raising and
lowering. Before using the control, the operating staff
should explain to the patient how the bed can be
positioned. If the medical staff state that the patient’s
medical condition is inappropriate for the patient to
be able to adjust the bed independently, the bed’s
position must be adjusted by the carer.
Please check for any entrapment risks under the
bed before lowering to the lowest position.
WARNING
Bed positioning MUST be carried out by a
competent person.
Check for obstructions around, above and
below the bed frame and position the bed so
that it can operate through the full height
range without any chance of obstruction or
entrapment.
The head end of the bed must be a minimum
of 300mm from the wall and always engage
the brakes when the bed is stopped or left
unattended.
The patient should only operate bed if they
are competent to do so.

1. Do the castors operate correctly, including the
brakes?
2. Do all electrical bed positioning functions work
correctly? (Backrest motion etc.).

The bed uses RF energy only for its internal
function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very
low and are not likely to cause any
interference in nearby electronic
equipment.

Portable and mobile RF
communications equipment should be
used no closer to any part of the bed
including cables, than the
recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation
applicable to the frequency of the
transmitter.
Recommended separation distance:
d = 1,2 √P
d = 1,2 √P 80MHz to 800 MHz
d = 2,3 √P 800MHz to 2,5 GHz
Where P is the maximum output power
rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter
manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation distance in
metres (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic
site survey, a should be less than the
compliance level in each frequency

vicinity of equipment marked with the
following symbol:
NOTE1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV
broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the
electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the bed is
used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the bedshould be observed to
verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be
necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the bed.
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment and the bed.
The bed is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled.
The customer or the user of the bed can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the bed as recommended below, according to the
maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended
separation distance d in metres (m) can
be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where p is
the maximum output power rating of
the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range
applies.
NOTE2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
