2. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Intended use
The “JEREMIA” children’s therapeutic bed is designed for use in a home-care environment.
The medical treatment to be provided is the diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of illnesses under
medical supervision. It is only approved for one person and the safe working load (see type plate) must
not be exceeded. The bed should only be used within enclosed spaces and protected from excessive
moisture.
Use of the various adjustment functions can be carried out by the user by means of an IPX4 manual
control unit with closure (key)
- Manual and electric bed base adjustment
IPX4 manual control unit with closure (key) and separate locking function
- Trendelenburg/anti-Trendelenburg positioning
Make sure that the patient is always lying with their head at the “head end” of the bed.
All components of the bed must be used in accordance with the appropriate
intended use. Overloading causes damage and is not permitted.
2.2 Important information on operational safety
I. Setup and initial operation are performed by the sales agent. Prior to handing over the bed and
before each re-use, a functional check and a safety check must be performed. It must be ensured
that all functions are running smoothly, the power cable is routed correctly, and the bed base is
securely mounted in the bed frame. This also applies to any further operation of the children’s
therapeutic bed.
Incorrect routing of the power cable (e.g. kinks, shearing) may pose a serious risk to people
(electric shock).
II. The patient can weigh up to a maximum of 100 kg. Persons of any age with reduced mental
capacity are only permitted to use the system under supervision.
III. The lowest, horizontal setting of the bed frame is the safest and this is the only one that should
be used, unless another setting is required for therapy and treatment purposes.
Always lower the lifting unit to the lowest position afterwards.
IV. When adjusting the lifting unit, do not place any parts of the body
inside or underneath moving parts. There is a RISK OF CRUSHING.
V. The children’s therapeutic bed “JEREMIA” is intended for use only in dry
rooms and must only be operated and stored in dry rooms. The system must only be connected
to a conventional 230-volt socket. The cable and plug must be dry and must not be crushed or
abraded at any location. Make sure that all cables are routed and connected correctly at the
points provided.
VI. To prevent overloading and faults in the electric motors, a maximum switch-on time of two
minutes must not be exceeded.
The electric-powered adjustment of the head end and foot end must only be used to
lift and lower the upper body or legs (observe the position of the patient in the bed).
Overloading causes damage and is not permitted!
Overloading the mechanical components causes damage and is therefore not permitted.
(see operating instructions, item 2.3 + 2.4 and type plate)

VII. In the event of misuse, improper use, incorrect operation or incorrect assembly/repair, no
liability will be accepted. In such cases, all warranties are also excluded.
VIII. The drives must not be operated in the presence of flammable gases or vapours.
IX. The “JEREMIA” children’s therapeutic bed must only be operated with original accessories and
maintained using original parts.
X. If any malfunctions occur, inform your sales agent immediately.
In particular, disconnect the power and do not operate the device in the event of
damage to electrical or mechanical parts.
XI. Avoid the improper routing of electrical cables for other devices in the bed for medical
use. Risk of crushing between moving parts of the bed.
2.3 Warning notices
I. Patient transport permitted only in the lowest, horizontal position of the lifting unit.
II. If the patient is not supervised, the bed frame must be moved to its lowest, horizontal position.
The moving side flaps must be locked.
III. Do not leave anything in the bed that could be used to climb on or that may result in a risk of
suffocation or strangulation.
IV. Only trained persons or the nursing staff are permitted to adjust the lifting unit.
The patient themselves must not adjust the bed.
When the patient is left alone, all functions must be disabled.
V. The patient’s clinical condition may cause them to become trapped.
VI. Take care when opening and closing the moving side panels.
RISK OF CRUSHING! Open and close only under supervision.
VII. The “JEREMIA” children’s therapeutic bed must only be used on a flat, horizontal and solid
surface.
VIII. Only use in dry rooms.
IX. Do not position the bed in the vicinity of open flames or other strong sources of heat (e.g.
electric radiant heaters, gas ovens etc.).
X. The maximum user load is 100 kg.
The safe working load is 170 kg, including accessories.
