2.3 Intended Use
sentida 03 is an electrically adjustable bed intended for use within a healthcare facility. Its in-
tended purpose is to oer residents comfort, autonomy and safety and provide an eective
support for the nursing sta to facilitate nursing activities. The sentida 03 bed is intended for
the occupancy of residents with a weight ≥ 40 kg, a height ≥140 cm and a BMI ≥17. It is in-
tended for human medical use and intended for the application environments 3 and 5 accord-
ing to the EN 60601-2-52 standard:
Application environment 3 includes long-term care in homes for the elderly and nursing
homes, rehabilitation and geriatric facilities. These institutions require medical supervision and,
if necessary, monitoring. A medical device used for medical procedures can be made available
to maintain or improve the condition of the resident.
Application environment 5 includes the ambulant care area in a hospital or other medical insti-
tution with medical supervision at hand. A medical device is made available for persons with
illness, injuries or disabilities for treatment, diagnosis or supervision.
The bed is not intended for transporting persons.
This nursing bed is a medical product in the sense of the regulations and standards named in
the chapter "Applied standards". Accordingly, this product may only be used under medical
supervision. The decisive factor in whether nursing is medically supervised or not depends on
whether nursing takes place under the instructions of medical personnel or not.
The sentida 03 has been designed in accordance with state-of-the-art technology and gener-
ally recognized safety regulations.
Only use the sentida 03 when it is in perfect working order. Only use it for its intended use,
safety and risk consciously and in accordance with these instructions for use. Malfunctions that
may aect safety must be eliminated immediately in particular!
Always keep these instructions for use ready to hand at the location where the comfort bed is
used. In addition to the instructions for use, please observe the generally applicable standards
and commonly accepted regulations on accident prevention and environmental protection!
Make sure that operating and auxiliary materials and replacement parts are recycled safely and
in an environment-friendly manner.
Before operating the bed, ensure the functional safety and the proper condition of the bed.
Always leave the castors braked; this avoids the risk of falls for the resident when getting in or

out of the bed.
If an incontinent resident occupies the bed, incontinence protection must be used for the mat-
tress.
Avoid risk of entrapment during patient´s presence on the bed.
The details of the nameplate must be observed.
Make sure that the space underneath the bed is absolutely free of persons, feet, animals or
other objects at any time, during any handling of the resident and operation of the bed.
As for the height adjustment, two power units are uses independent of one an-
other, it is important to move the patient surface at least once per day to the end po-
sition (highest – lowest position) depending on the adjustment cycle. This causes
potential height dierences in the patient surface to be equalled out.
The bed may not be operated if it displays malfunctions that could cause a hazard to persons,
employees or third parties.
The bed may only be operated by persons who can guarantee correct handling because of their
training or knowledge and practical experience.
Before operating the bed, the person doing this must be satised with the functional safety and
the proper condition of the bed.
The bed must be subject to a function test, possibly daily or with each change of shift, so that
it is guaranteed that the bed can be used as intended without danger for the patient or the
operator.
The bed may only be moved on level and rm oor covering.
If the bed is occupied the castors must always be in braked position – otherwise there is a risk of
the patient falling when getting in or out, since he may support himself on the bed.
The height of the patient surface must be adjusted to the size of the patient to avoid the risk
of a fall.
When operating the mechanical emergency lowering of the backrest, (optional) this must al-
ways be xed to the mattress restricting bar or lifting pole to avoid a sudden lowering.
When moving the bed to dierent positions, it must be ensured that no children, body parts or
other objects are in the adjustment area.

9
Adjustments to the side sections (side rails) may only be made by nursing sta.When adjusting
the patient surface positions, nursing sta must be convinced that the patient will not come
into contact with the side rails, to avoid entrapment of hands, legs or other body parts.
Extreme leaning out sideways of the upper body must be avoided.
Depending on the physical and mental state of the patient, functions on the handset must
be locked or released. The eectiveness of the locking functions must be tested with the
handset.
Since the system can optionally be run via battery operation, it is not enough just to pull out
the plug in case of the motors functioning incorrectly. If a malfunction occurs, please switch o
the functions via the locking function of the handset and contact our customer service.
For adjustments via the handset, it is recommended that the operator remains in the vicinity of
the control box so that possible incorrect functions can be immediately switched o.
Caution! All electrical functions can be faulty – unless they are locked through the control box.
For the power source, 100-230V AC, 60 Hz mains plug in accordance with electro-technical
standard VDE stipulations must be used.
Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Only hold the mains connection cable on the plug and
pull out from the mains socket.
Lay the mains connection cable without loops, do not bend or pull around sharp edges.
Generally protect connection cable and supply cable from mechanical stress.
Position the mains connection cable and supply cable to the handset so that they are safe from
being squashed and do not place any objects on the connection or extension cable.
When setting up the bed in the room provided for it, safety clearances from the wall, window-
sills and other objects must be maintained. Safety clearances depend on the design and model
of the bed, for which extreme height adjustment and tilting movements are performed and at
least 25 mm (0,98“) space for ngers must be maintained.
If the bedding and height adjustment functions are performed, it must be ensured that the
safety key is not in the lock or in the vicinity of the handset (in the range of the patient / resi-
dent). Through improper release via the safety key, positions can be set that may represent a
risk to the patient / resident, such as a wrongly applied Trendelenburg position.

10
Cleaning of the bed may only be carried out with a damp cloth.
If the bed is not used properly, dangers can occur through:
- Unauthorised operation of electrical functions during the uncontrolled
positioning of the bed,
- Using the bed for persons with a weight less than 40 kg, a height less than 140 cm and a
BMI less than 17.
- Operating functions of the bed by the patient without previous instruction,
- Simultaneous operation of electrical functions by dierent people,
- Connecting electrical devices to the bed that are not intended,
- Moving the bed by pulling the mains cable or side rails,
- Pulling the mains cable to remove the mains plug from the power supply,
- Lack of protection for the connection and supplied cables from sharp edges or other me-
chanical strains (e.g. running over the mains cable),
- Moving the bed on an unstable surface,
- Using the bed on a sloping surface with an angle of 10° or more,
- Devices that create strong electromagnetic elds and that may possibly inuence the
control of the bed are not permitted in the direct vicinity of the bed (e.g. mobile phones).
- Before cleaning or servicing the bed, the mains plug must always be removed from the
power supply.
- Continuously dripping uid in the motor unit area (e.g. in case of incontinence)
- Improper repair work on electrical installations
Safety notes – measures for the safe operation of hospital and nursing home beds:
- Electrical components on hospital and nursing home beds may only be repaired and
serviced by the manufacturer or by specialist personnel trained specically by the man-
ufacturer. Otherwise, there is a danger that specic procedures will not be performed di-
rectly through lack of knowledge of product functionalities, leading to an increased risk of
electrical shock or re.
- Electrical components on hospital and nursing home beds may be replaced only with the
original spare parts from the manufacturer, since replacement with incorrect components
can lead to a highly increased risk of electrical shock or re.
- A safe location on the bed must be specied for the hand controls, so that playing with the
hand controls can be prevented.
- Cleaning the bed may only be carried out in accordance with the specications in section
„Cleaning and Disinfection“ of these instructions for use, since increased risks could other-
wise occur for which the manufacturer can take no responsibility.
- If incontinent patients occupy the bed, an incontinence protection for the mattress must
always be used.
- If immobile patients/residents lie in the bed permanently, bed sores can occur if additional
lying aids (e.g. pressure sore mattresses) and other special nursing measures for pressure
sore prevention are not employed. Under no circumstances is this the responsibility of the
manufacturer of the bed.
- The product is explicitly not suitable for permanent use. If the specied operating time is
exceeded, the power unit can heat up, causing it to switch off automatically.The power unit

11
must then cool down for at least two hours, and can only be put into operation again after
this time has expired.
- It is absolutely essential that a blockage of the bed or of parts of the bed mechanics is
avoided, since this can lead to damage and to the total failure of the power unit through
overheating.
- It is absolutely essential that the safe working load is not exceeded, since this can lead to
damage and to the total failure of the power unit through overheating.
USE OF sentida 03 NURSING HOME BED
A nursing home bed may only be put into operation and used in accordance with its intended
purpose, in compliance with the regulations of the USA Law on Medical Products, the accompa-
nying orders, the generally recognised rules of technology and the regulations on work safety
and accident prevention. A nursing home bed may not be operated in a defective condition in
which the bed could be a hazard to patients, nursing sta or third parties.
The conditions of the respective instructions for use of the product shall apply.
The following points must be observed:
- The nursing home beds of Linet are intended exclusively for the occupancy of persons with
a weight ≥ 40 kg, a height ≥140 cm and a BMI ≥17. This must be ensured, since persons with
a body size or weight deviating from this average are exposed to an increased risk under cer-
tain circumstances. As the recommended standard range, persons with the above mentioned
parameters (with a non-critical state of health and capable of acting independently at least to
a certain extent) can occupy the bed without additional risks or restrictions in performance
(in accordance with standard IEC 60601-2-52.). Bed extensions (accessories) should be used
for larger persons, and it is essential that additional protective measures such as side rail pro-
tection covers (accessories) are used for emaciated persons. Individual application cases that
deviate from this must be coordinated with Linet.
- In general, the professional judgment of the nursing person responsible (medical supervision)
is necessary to guarantee safe use of the nursing home beds. The physical, psychological and
medical needs and conditions of patients must be observed. Accordingly, the bed functions
must be individually released or locked for each patient/resident. This applies particularly to
products with special tilting options for the patient surface, and when using side guards.
- The operation of nursing home dates is allowed exclusively from mains sockets installed in
the building that are up-to-date and that are inspected regularly for the correct function of
safety installations (RCD protection, insulation error detectors, line fuse, etc.) in accordance
with valid regulations.
- The nursing home beds are not protected from explosions and may not be used in applica-
tion areas in which ammable anaesthetics, cleaning or solvent agents or possible ignitable
substances mixed with air and can be found. The regulations of the professional associations
must be observed in this respect.

12
- Possible use deviating from this intended purpose represents a non-intended use and is ex-
cluded from all claims of liability.
Basic functions and uses of nursing home beds
Modern nursing home beds have numerous bedding functions, which are described in detail
in the instructions for use for the respective product. The full benets of a nursing home bed
can only be achieved through careful training of the users and inhabitants of a nursing home.
Please repeat these training sessions as regularly as possible and pay particular Warning to the
necessary safety regulations that must be observed.
- In general, there is always a risk of unintended or wrong adjustment of the bed. For example,
pressing switches accidentally or unintended release of functions can be a hazard to certain
patients/residents! To ensure a high degree of protection, it is absolutely essential to use lock-
ing functions and/or the release keys selectively. Under no circumstances may release keys
remain on the handset or on the bed! Release keys are intended exclusively for use by nursing
sta.
- The use of the locking functions and if required, the intentional separation of the bed from
the power supply – as an absolute locking measure for the maximum protection of a possibly
jeopardised patient / resident– lies exclusively at the discretion of and in the responsibility
of the medical supervision and nursing sta in charge. Corresponding measures should be
noted in the shift report to guarantee a correct shift handover.
- The use of special positions, such as Trendelenburg, Anti-Trendelenburg, layered bedding or
relative lowered head position as a shock position is explicitly allowed only by medical su-
pervision sta. These functions must be locked for patients and residents, since this could
otherwise result in hazards.
The safety notes in the specic product instructions for use must be observed, since hazards
could otherwise occur.
When using the side guards, particular care and caution should be taken:
- side guards are used rst and foremost to protect the patient from rolling out. On no account
may the side guards be used as a means to hold the patient rm.
- As soon as the mobility of the patient/resident is restricted, a court order is required to use the
side guards. Only divided side guards or side guards that can be individually lowered, in which
only the head and section is assembled, and which can be used as a help in getting in and out,
are just one permissible exception for mobile residents/patients here.
- Overloading caused by sitting, leaning or pulling on the side guards can result in serious
damage to this and cause hazards. It is essential that such overloading is avoided.
- When using side guards, their suitability should be checked, taking into account
the peculiarities of the respective patient/resident. In particular the clearances
between the panels and supports in relation to the body shape of the patient/resident must
be taken into account, so that entrapment or slipping through is ruled out. If necessary, ad-
ditional side guard cushioning must be used which reduces the size of the gap or closes it.
This decision is exclusively the responsibility of the medical supervision in charge. The details
on the restriction of the intended use in these instructions for use are referred to as an orien-

13
tation, as well as the specic product instructions for use for the bed and for the side guard.
- Only side guards may be used on the beds which are also permitted for that particular bed
type, since increased risk of accident could otherwise occur.
- The side rails/side guards must be checked for possible damage each time before they are
used, and checked that they are securely attached to the bed and that the safety lock functions
correctly! Details on the correct handling of the side guard can be found in the respective prod-
uct instructions for use.
- The use of the handset by the resident/patient himself lies exclusively at the discretion of and
in the responsibility of the medical supervision and nursing sta in charge. Corresponding
measures should be noted in the shift report or in the nursing documentation to guarantee a
correct shift handover and traceability of usage rights.
- If the handset is not to be used by the resident/patient himself, then it must be protected from
being accessed by this person and from becoming trapped, for example by attaching it to the
foot end of the bed.
- The handset must not fall on the ground, be subject to heavy weight or have liq-
uids poured on it. It should be cleaned with cleaning cloths used for computer key-
boards. If there is damage to the mechanics or from dampness, the remote control must
be replaced immediately. The cables must also be checked at frequent regular
intervals.
- The mains connection cables must be protected from damage during operation and when the
bed is transported/moved:
The cable must be safely prevented from being badly twisted, pulled, bent, folded or even
squashed. When moving the height adjustment of a bed, make sure that the connection ca-
ble is free and can freely follow the movement of the bed at all times. The cable may not be
stretched tight.The cable may not become trapped, for example under or behind another item
of furniture or under the legs/castors of the bed. Otherwise damage could be caused to the
mains supply cable or to parts of the covering. For this purpose, unused mains cable should be
folded together in a gure of eight loop and held together with a strong rubber band. Alter-
natively the Linet mains cable hook can be used (see following diagrams). Under no account
may xed cable binders be used, since these could damage the mains cable if it is subject to
unintentional tension.
- It is essential that the cable is prevented from being dragged across the oor or even being
squashed or run over with the bed castors when the bed is transported. For this purpose the
Linet mains cable hook can be used. (see following gure)
- The mains cables must undergo a precautionary visual inspection at brief intervals, for ex-

Danger!
There is a highly increased risk of electric shock or re when using incompatible elec-
tric components. Only replace electric components by original spare parts.
Danger!
Any other application must be agreed beforehand in writing with Linet.The product
must be used in the application environments 3 and 5 as nursing equipment and is
subject to the regulations of the relevant professional organization.
Danger!
When moving the bed to dierent positions, it must be ensured that no persons,
body parts or objects are in the adjustment area or between the head / foot end
and under the patient surface.
Danger!
The sentida 03 should be left in its lowest position when the resident is unattended
in order to prevent the resident from falling or injuries.
Danger!
Use of extension cables or multiple adapters that lie unsecured on the oor of the
room should be avoided.
Danger!
The bed may only be used by persons who can guarantee correct handling on the
basis of their training or knowledge and practical experience. The user of the com-
fort bed must have familiarized himself with the product and its correct use based
on these instructions for use. The bed may only be used in complete compliance
with the instructions for use.
Danger!
We assume no liability for potential product damage or personal injuries caused by
unapproved accessories or mutual cancellation of the intended use.
The specied use is the intended use. Its sole source for the operator or user is the
labeling and he instructions for use.
ample if mechanical load has been detected, if the cable is relayed or monthly, so that any
hazards can be ruled out.The overview in chapter„Maintenance and Service“ can be used here
as a guideline. In particular the critical points of inserting the mains plug, the mains plug cover
and protecting the cable from traction or housing openings on the bed must be observed.
2.5 Warnings and Precautions

15
Danger!
Do not carry out any changes, attachments to and conversions of the sentida 03
without the manufacturer’s approval. Spare parts have to comply with the manufac-
turer’s requirements. For original spare parts, this is always guaranteed. Adhere to
the prescribed checks and tests!
Warning!
Harmful chemicals can leak from opened batteries and cause injuries. Never open
the battery box.
Particularly In conjunction with a bed extension, there is a danger of entrapment
between the extension and the floor and of the head / foot section lying on the floor.
It is essential that the patient surface is moved to an appropriate height before every
adjustment of the bed. The same applies when a linen holder is used!
Warning!
Danger!
Before every height adjustment of the bed, you must make sure that there are no
persons, animals or objects in the danger area. Always leave the handset in the
locked position so that no unauthorized persons can manipulate the height adjust-
ment of the bed.
Danger!
The use of accessories and combinations of products not authorised for the product
can lead to serious hazards. This is why only accessories released by Linet and pro-
ducts released for combination may be used.
Danger!
If you fail to close the foot-end gap resulting from the patient surface extension
with a protector and an mattress extension pad, there is danger of entrapment!
This applies for both the temporary and the permanent patient surface extension.
Alternatively a longer mattress can be used.
Danger!
Make sure that the space underneath the bed is absolutely free of persons, feet,
animals or other objects at any time, during any handling of the resident and oper-
ation of the bed.
Pay Warning to loose parts when replacing the handset holding hook.
Warning!
As soon as the positioning is completed, lock both the head and foot end brake bars
for reasons of safety.
Warning!
Warning!
Avoid standing too close with your feet at the edge of the bed when operating the
height adjustment or comfort seat position.

16
For nursing home beds, the legs up position is not used for acute care in an emer-
gency/shock position. Primarily, this function is used only for eortlessly setting the
legs up position for therapeutic reasons! To avoid the risk of accidentally moving the
bed to the Trendelenburg position, it is strongly recommended that the backrest is
raised by about the width of a hand simultaneously with the legs up position. It is
important that the head of the resident remains higher than the orthostatic point
of the body.
Warning!
Warning!
Particularly In conjunction with a bed extension, there is a danger of entrapment
between the extension and the floor and of the head / foot section lying on the floor.
It is essential that the patient surface is moved to an appropriate height before every
adjustment of the bed. The same applies when a linen holder is used!
Warning!
Injuries could be caused if feet or other body parts get caught in the moving castors
or the undercarriage cladding when moving the bed. When moving the bed, make
sure that your foot does not get caught in the moving castors or the undercarriage
cladding.
Warning!
Always leave the bed in a fully braked condition. For models with axle braking, both
axles must be braked.
Warning!
When lowering or raising the side guards, ngers, hands, or other body parts of the
resident could be squashed. Raise or lower the side guards with the highest care.
Warning!
Restless or disoriented patients or residents could become trapped in the safety
clearances of the side guards. Protect these patients or residents by using side guard
cushioning.
Warning!
If necessary, use an side guard extension as an additional safety and protective fea-
ture for the use of increased mattress systems and the side protection pads (acces-
sory) available.
Warning!
Incorrectly locked side guards can slide down and cause a fall of the resident. Make
sure the side guard has correctly engaged in each new position by shaking it. The
correct engagement can also be visually inspected: The yellow locking buttons in
the locking recess of the telescope mechanism must be recognizable on both sides.

17
Warning!
Incorrectly positioned side guards can slide down and cause a fall of the patient or
resident. By shaking the side guard, make sure that it has clicked into the right po-
sition.
Warning!
Placing the side rails at an inclination does not provide suitable or sucient protec-
tion from falling out of the bed.
Warning!
The side safety clearance from the head and foot ends must each be approx.
6 cm. Rule: The distances must be uniformly distributed at both ends. For nursing
home beds in special length (more than 2 m) a side guard protection in special
length has to be used.
Warning!
Under high load, the grab handle and belt can break or tear and cause injuries. Only
use a lifting pole for a maximum load of 750 N (approx. 75 kg - 165,35 lb)
Caution!
However, as two drives independent of each other are used for the height adjust-
ment for the sentida 03 model, it is necessary, depending on the adjustment cycle,
to move the patient surface to the end position (highest or lowest position) at least
once per day. This evens out potential height dierences in the patient surface.
Warning!
Since the handset holder is exible, it may not be used as assistance in standing up
or as a handle.
Warning!
Grab handle and belt consist of high-quality plastic. However, all plastics are not un-
conditionally resistant to aging, so that grab handle and belt can break or tear after
long usage. This can cause injuries. Replace grab handle and strap after 4–5 years at
the latest. The year of manufacture is imprinted on the product.
Warning!
For side rail protections with extensions, please use the available side protection
cushioning (accessory), which is an important additional safety and protection fea-
ture.
Warning!
With some model variants, there is the locking mechanism for the side rail in the„central
position“. This position does not provide sucient protection from falling out.

18
If the comfort bed is operated in institutions with medical supervision, the comfort
seating and legs up position may only be released by medical personnel or only“un-
der medical supervision” for safety reasons. The handset keys are released via the
safety key! A Trendelenburg position is not required due to the intended use.
Caution!
Without the release via the safety key, no individual functions for the comfort sea-
ting adjustment and for the legs up position are possible, for reasons of safety. Sin-
ce these positions may only be performed under „medical supervision“ (e.g. by a
nurse), it is essential to ensure that the safety key is not kept in the vicinity of the
resident. We recommend that the key is kept on the key ring of the nursing sta so
that it is quickly at hand if required.
Caution!
Caution!
All electrical functions can be faulty - unless you lock them and just release them
for the duration of the function.
Caution!
Other devices that emit electromagnetic radiation (e.g. DECT radio telephones) can
have an inuence on electrical bed functions. Therefore, bed functions that are not
required must be locked for safety reasons. The use of such devices in the vicinity of
the bed should be avoided as far as possible.
Caution!
Since the system can optionally be run via battery operation, it is not enough just
to pull out the plug in case of the motors functioning incorrectly. If a malfunction
occurs, please switch off the functions via the locking function of the handset and
contact our customer service.
Caution!
It is imperative to run the cable (B) over the lifting mechanism (C) (and depending
on the side) over the motor (D).
Caution!
Power supply connection cables could break when they are run over. Never run over
power supply cables or other cables.
Caution!
Before tilting the bed into the comfort seating or legs up position, you have to
unlock at least one of the two brake bars to avoid the castors sliding on the oor.
Caution!
Leave the bed in a fully braked condition. For models with axle braking (sentida 03),
both axles must be braked.

Caution!
The side panels‘ anchoring could come loose under high load. Only move the bed at
its head or foot end.
Caution!
The bed can only be moved if both brakes are released. If braked castors are moved
across the oor, the ooring could be damaged.
Caution!
The side guards could get overloaded and damaged by heavy loads, leaning or pul-
ling. Such overloading has to be avoided.
Caution!
Do not use water mattresses. In this case the drives or other components can fail and
cause accidents by exceeding the working load. Always observe the safe working
load.
Caution!
Replace Linet mattresses only with equivalent mattresses with identical dimensions.
Also make sure that there are movement slots on the underside of the mattress, as
this may aect the adjustment functions. Do not use spring core mattresses.
Caution!
When the sentida 03 was stored or transported at low temperatures, it needs to ad-
just to the temperature for a certain time. When the adjustment time was too short
or the temperature is not suitable, the sentida 03 can be damaged and fail. After
strong temperature uctuations, let the sentida 03 adjust its temperature for at least
12 hours.
Caution!
To achieve a lower entry height for persons confined to a wheelchair and to minimize
the risk of injuries (if the resident were to fall out of bed (see chapter 201.7.9.2.5.103
of the IEC 60601-2-52:2009 standard), the under bed clearance must be reduced to
approx. 145mm. Under certain circumstances, some commercially available lifting
equipment cannot be positioned 100% sufficiently under the undercarriage. This
problem can be solved by using larger castors (available as a model variant).
Caution!
Before you attach the accessories holder, make sure that it cannot collide with other
bed parts or ttings in the room.
