2. Clinical Applications
Intended use This product is intended to provide support to patients during a
stay in hospital or other care facility and allows positioning for
CPR and Trendelenburg.
The bed is suitable for use in the following situations:
• Intensive/critical care provided in a hospital where 24-
hour medical supervision and constant monitoring is
required, e.g. ITU, ICU and CCU (*Application
Environment 1).
• Acute care provided in a hospital or other medical facility
where medical supervision and monitoring is required,
e.g. general medical and surgical wards (*Application
Environment 2).
• Long term care in a medical area where medical
supervision is required and monitoring is provided if
necessary, e.g. nursing homes and geriatric facilities
(*Application Environment 3).
* Application Environments are defined in
IEC 60601-2-52:2009.
Indications The bed is appropriate for high dependencypatients who pose
a movement and handling risk and / or whose clinical condition
requires that they are positioned with minimal physical
handling.
Patients with a moderate amount of independence can, at the
caregiver’s discretion, use the controls to adjust their own
position.
The mattress platform can be positioned to assist with such
clinical procedures as may be required in the Application
Environments defined above.
WARNING
To ensure the patient can use the bed safely, their age and
condition should be assessed by a clinically qualified person.
The use of head down tilt (Trendelenburg) or foot down tilt (reverse
Trendelenburg) may be contraindicated for certain medical
conditions. The tilt facility should only be used under the guidance
of a clinically qualified person after assessment of the patient’s
condition.

5
Contra-
indications The bed is not suitable for use in the following situations:
• A domestic area, i.e. home healthcare (*Application
Environment 4).
• Outpatient care (*Application Environment 5).
* Application Environments are defined in
IEC 60601-2-52:2009.
The bed is not suitable for patients under 40kg in weight.
The maximum recommended patient weight is 185kg.
The safe working load (SWL) of the bed is 250kg.
The safe working load is calculated as follows (in accordance
with IEC 60601-2-52):
Maximum patient weight........................................... 185kg
Mattress .................................................................... 20kg
Accessories (including attached loads)...................... 45kg
TOTAL .................................................................. 250kg
The recommended patient height is between 146cm and
190cm.
At the discretion of the caregiver, patients taller than 190cm
may be accommodated by extending the bed - refer to Bed
length adjustment on page 17. Ensure that the patient’s
height does not exceed the In-bed length shown on page 43.
WARNING
If the combined weight of the mattress and accessories exceeds
65kg, the maximum patient weight must be reduced accordingly.

3. Installation
The following chapter describes how to install the bed.
WARNING
If the power supply cord or plug is damaged, the complete
assembly must be replaced by authorised service personnel. Do
not remove the fitted plug, or use a rewireable plug or adapter.
Make sure the power supply cord is not stretched, kinked or
crushed.
Do not allow the power supply cord to trail on the floor where it may
cause a trip hazard.
Make sure the power supply cord does not become entangled with
moving parts of the bed or trapped between the bed frame and head
board.
Disconnect the power supply cord from the electricity supply, and
store it as shown, before moving the bed.
Caution
Before the first use, or if the bed has been unused for more than
three months, connect the bed to the electricity supply for at least
24 hours to allow the backup battery to recharge fully; failure to do
this may reduce the life of the battery. After charging, check that the
battery is fully serviceable by carrying out a battery test as shown
on page 38.

7
Electricity
supply Connect the mains plug to a suitable socket outlet. Make sure
the plug is easily accessible so it can be disconnected quickly
in an emergency.
Power supply cord and potential equalisation terminal
When the bed is connected to the electricity supply, an
indicator will light on the Attendant Control Panel (see
page 27).
The power supply cord (1) is fitted with a plastic hook (2).
When not in use or before moving the bed, clip the hook onto
the head board, coil up the cable and place it over the hook as
shown.
To isolate the bed from the electricity supply, disconnect the
mains plug from the socket outlet.
A potential equalisation terminal (3) is located at the head end
of the bed.
When other electrical equipment is within reach of the patient
or caregiver, potential differences between the equipment can
be minimised by connecting together their potential
equalisation terminals.
Underbed
light The underbed light illuminates the floor on either side of the
bed.
The underbed light is always on unless the bed is in its low
power state; refer to the section “Low power mode” on
page 32.

Mattresses
A label on the calf extension sheet indicates the correct
mattress size:
Mattress size label
WARNING
Always use a mattress of the correct size and type. Incompatible
mattresses can create hazards.
Entrapment hazards may exist when using a very soft mattress,
even if it is the correct size.
The maximum recommended mattress thickness for use with side
rails is 18cm.
Read the instructions for use supplied with the mattress.
Where the maximum patient weight specified for the mattress is
different to that specified for the bed, the lower value applies.
The numbers 1, 2 and 3 on the label indicate different mattress
platform lengths; refer to Bed length adjustment on page 17.

Mattresses and
side rails When choosing bed and mattress combinations, it is important
to consider the use of side rails based on clinical assessment
of each individual patient and in line with local policy.
When assessing the suitability of a mattress for use with side
rails, the following factors should be considered:
• The bed is designed to provide an acceptable side rail
height when used with a foam mattress up to 18cm thick.
• Specialist powered air / foam replacement mattresses
will typically envelop the patient when loaded and can
generally be deeper than a foam mattress without
compromising safety. Other makes of specialist mattress
replacement must be assessed individually prior to use
to verify sufficient clearance is maintained.
• Mattress overlays are not recommended for use with this
bed.
• To ensure compliance with IEC 60601-2-52, an approved
ArjoHuntleigh mattress should be used. Compliance with
this standard when using other mattresses must be
validated by the user.
• For more information on suitable mattresses and
mattress replacements, contact your local ArjoHuntleigh
office or approved distributor. A list of ArjoHuntleigh
offices can be found at the back of this manual.
