WARNING Close supervision by an adult who has read and understands this User
Manual is required when the bed is used around children or others who have not or
cannot read and/or understand this User Manual.
WARNING The bed mattress must be purchased from Med-Mizer Inc. to meet
entrapment zone dimensional guidelines published by the Food and Drug Administration.
WARNING Do not spill or spray liquid on the bed. Excessive liquid on the bed can
result in an electric shock hazard. In the event of a liquid spill or excessive liquid on the
bed, unplug the bed immediately. Remove excess liquid and allow bed to dry thoroughly
before restoring power.
WARNING Never permit anyone under the bed while the bed is being used. Failure to do
so could result in personal injury.
WARNING Never operate the bed if a cord or plug is damaged, or it is not working
properly. Contact Qualified Service Personnel for inspection and/or repair. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury.
WARNING DO not sit or lie on hand control. It can cause unintended movement of the
application.
WARNING Ensure the main power cord is routed where it is not pinched either under or
beside the bed. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
CAUTION Ensure the grounding cable of the control box is securely fastened to the frame.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
CAUTION If a handset is used, the cord must be routed and secured properly to ensure
that cord does not become entangled. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage or
