2. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Intended use
The “LEA” children’s therapeutic bed is designed for use in a home-care environment.
Application environment 3 + 4 in accordance with DIN EN 60601-2-52. The medical treatment to be
provided is the diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of illnesses under medical supervision. It is
permitted for use for one person only
-(height: min. 75 cm, max. bed base minus 15 cm / weight: max. 135 kg) and the safe working
load (see type plate) must not be exceeded. The bed must only be used in enclosed rooms
and must be protected against excessive moisture.
The user can apply the different adjustment functions using an IPX4 manual control unit with closure,
height and bed base adjustment.
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.
2.1.1 Indications
For children with restricted movement who no longer have spontaneous mobility, or young people and
adults with cognitive developmental disorders, for example it
An ergonomic sitting position is necessary in bed due to trunk instability
Secure contact between the feet and the floor is necessary when getting into/out of bed
The height of the bed must be adjustable so as to enable the patient to be transferred to a
wheelchair, for example
The height of the bed base must be adjustable for treatment purposes
2.1.2 Contraindications
None known
Always consult a doctor or therapist before using the bed.

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 135 kg. Persons of any age with reduced perception
are only permitted to use the system under supervision.
III. The lowest setting of the bed base is the safest and this is the only one that should be used,
unless another setting is required for therapy and treatment purposes.
Following therapy or treatment, always move the lifting unit down
to the lowest position.
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 “LEA” 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 “LEA” children’s therapeutic bed must only be operated with original accessories and
maintained using original parts. The use of mattresses that are incompatible with this bed can be
hazardous. Please observe the technical data (item 3/page 13.0 et seq. of these operating
instructions).
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. If the patient is not supervised, the lifting unit must be moved to its lowest, horizontal position.
The revolving doors/side rails must be locked.
II. 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.
III. Only trained persons or the nursing staff are permitted to adjust the lifting unit. The patient
themselves must not adjust the bed.
If the patient is alone, all functions must be locked (see item 2.6 Manual control unit).
IV. The patient’s clinical condition may cause them to become trapped.
V. Take care when opening and closing the revolving doors. RISK OF CRUSHING.
The open, middle revolving doors are secured by the magnet at the top end.
Only open and close the complete door units in supervised situations.
VI. The “LEA” children’s therapeutic bed must only be used on a flat, horizontal and solid surface.
VII. Only use in dry rooms.
VIII. 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.).
IX. The maximum user load is 135 kg. The safe working load is 170 kg, including accessories.
The electrical adjustment of the head end or the head end/foot end (accessories) must only be
used to lift and lower the upper body and legs (observe the position of the patient in the bed).
2.4 Lifting unit
The lifting unit is used for the electrical lifting and lowering of the bed base.
The maximum user load is 135 kg.
The safe working load is 170 kg, including accessories.
Overloading causes damage and is not permitted.
2.5 Bed base
The four-part wooden bed base allows for infinite adjustment of the head end and foot end.
It is not advisable to move the back section and the foot end to the uppermost position at the
same time as this will be too restricted and uncomfortable for the patient.
If a power cut or a fault in the bed base motor causes the backrest to remain in an upright
position, there is the option to move the back section to the lowest position using batteries (Fig.
21).
The batteries must be replaced after a single use.

2.6 Manual control unit
The manual control unit is used to control all electrical functions. The height adjustment and
the bed base adjustment are marked by appropriate symbols. Press lightly on the appropriate
button to move the system to the desired position.
Make sure that the manual control unit cable does not become crushed during
the adjustment. To prevent malfunctions, hang the manual control unit on the edge
of the bed when not in use, with the keypad facing outwards.
The lock for enabling and disabling the function keys is located on the back of the manual control unit
(Fig. 20). Turn the key to enable and disable the manual control unit. The arrow indicates the relevant
position.
The key is a safety element that prevents unauthorised use of the manual control unit and must
therefore always be kept in a separate place.

system nor the bed frame are suitable for high-pressure cleaners. To clean, use a damp cloth
with a small amount of neutral soap then wipe until dry.
It is possible to disinfect the bed with conventional disinfectant.
Once the bed has been cleaned, disinfected and maintained, it can be used again.

The bed must undergo maintenance at least once a year or every 12 months. Only trained
technical personnel from the operating company or manufacturer are authorised to
perform this work. If there are any deviations from the requirements specified below, the
bed must be taken out of service and repaired if the limitations are safety-related.
Complete the check list (Annex) for every maintenance inspection.
Perform a visual inspection of all the parts on the bed base (slatted frame). If you discover
any damage, these parts must be repaired or replaced immediately.
Check that the moving parts are moving freely, and lightly apply grease if necessary.
