1/2 bed length tent. Oxygen tents should not extend below the mattress support level.
• e electronics are not designed to be used in environments containing ammable anesthetics. Possible re
hazard exists.
• Keep the side rails in a raised position while patient is on the bed to prevent patient from accidentally falling
o the bed.
• If patient restraints are used, they must be attached to some point on the bed that articulates when the
gatches are raised and lowered. Failure to do so could result in the restraints injuring the patient.

• If needed, orthopedic equipment can be attached to the bed.
• CAUTION: hang the hand control pendant on the side rail when not in use. Run the cord under the bed
frame and keep it clear of moving parts to prevent possible damage to the cord.
• CAUTION: When the bed is in use, the casters must be positioned so that the locking tabs are locked and
pointed towards the foot end of the bed. Failure to do so will cause damage to the bed.
