WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ÌGeneral CAUTIONS
DO NOT use this product without first reading and understanding the instructions
contained in this booklet. If you are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions or
Instructions, contact a healthcare professional, durable medical equipment dealer or
technical personnel, or contact Medline at
1-800- Medline before use - otherwise serious bodily injury or product damage may occur.
Read ALL general guidelines, warnings and cautions before performing any repair /
maintenance on the bed. All repair and maintenance on the bed should be performed by
a qualified technician. After any adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make
sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely.
Inspect all parts for shipping damage before assembly and use. In case of damage, do
not use. Contact your shipping carrier immediately for instructions. For any non-
shipping issues, contact your Medline Dealer for further instructions.
Do not use near explosive gases. Possible fire hazard when used with oxygen
administering equipment other than nasal or masked type.
Use ONLY mask or nasal type oxygen administering equipment around the bed. The use
of any other type of oxygen administering equipment can result in a fire hazard.
When using nasal or masked type administering equipment, oxygen or air tubing must be
routed and secured properly to ensure that tubing does not become entangled and
eventually severed during normal operation of the bed.
When using liquids in or around the bed, caution should be taken to ensure that liquids of
any kind are not spilled. If a liquid is spilled in or around the electric bed, unplug the bed
immediately before cleaning. Clean up the spill and let the bed or area around it dry
thoroughly before using the electric controls again.
Close supervision is necessary when this product is used by or near children or
physically challenged individuals.
NEVER PERMIT ANYONE TO BE UNDER THE BED OR IN BETWEEN THE RAISED BED
FRAME COMPONENTS AT ANY TIME.
Never permit more than one person on/in the bed at any time.

WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ÌGeneral CAUTIONS
Keep the bed a minimum of 12 inches away from any direct heat source.
When the bed is not going to be used for an extended period, UNPLUG electric bed from
the wall outlet.
DO NOT unplug the power cord from the junction box.
The bed is not designed to be used as a patient transport. When transporting a patient,
use an approved patient transport, otherwise injury or damage may result.
When operating or moving the bed, always ensure that the individual in the bed is
properly positioned within the bed. DO NOT allow extremities to extend beyond the sides
or between the bed rails when performing these functions.
After assembly, test to make sure that all sections are properly and securely in place and
operate correctly BEFORE use.
Ensure that the head and foot spring sections are securely locked to each other and to
the head and foot-boards BEFORE use.
Ensure that the pendant and power cords are routed and secured properly so the cords
do not become entangled, pinched and/or severed during operation of the electric bed.
NEVER operate the bed if these cords are damaged.
Keep all moving parts and all drive shafts free of obstructions during operation of the
bed. (i.e. blankets/sheets, heating blankets/pads, tubing, wiring, etc. and other types of
products using electric cords which may get tangled around the bed, legs or optional
side rails).
Ensure the bed caster locks are properly engaged to prevent casters from moving
whenever the bed is stationary. ALWAYS lock the caster locks when transferring into or
out of the bed. Inspect the caster locks BEFORE using the bed to ensure the locks
function adequately. Even with casters properly locked, some floor surfaces will allow
the bed to move under some conditions. Use of the bed on such floor surfaces must be
evaluated by the care provider.
If any part of the bed is not working properly, call a qualified technician to examine and
repair it.

WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ÌGeneral CAUTIONS
Improper use of some bed accessories (patient restraints, side rails, trapeze devices, etc.)
can cause patient injury or death. Consult your health care professional or the accessory
manufacturer for proper use instructions.
If using optional bed side rails and bed extension kit, check to ensure they are properly
and securely in place BEFORE using the bed.
Ensure the mattress is centered on the frame. This will minimize the risk of the occupant
becoming trapped between the mattress and the bed rail.
Individuals that cannot prevent themselves from rolling/climbing out of the bed may
require alternative safe means of restraint.
Replacement mattresses and bed rails with dimensions different than the original
equipment supplied or approved by Medline may not be interchangeable. Variations in
bed side rail design and thickness, size or density of the mattress could cause
entrapment. Use ONLY authorized Medline replacement parts.
For semi-electric and full electric beds, always remove the manual crank before
performing electronic functions. If left in place, the crank will turn when the motor is on
and could cause personal injury or damage to the bed.
When disassembling the bed, make sure all parts are in the lowest position.
ÌElectrical CAUTIONS
Never operate the bed if it has a damaged cord or plug. If it is not working properly call a
qualified electrician.
The beds are equipped with three-prong (grounding) plugs for protection against
possible shock hazards. Connect only to a three-prong outlet. Do not defeat the
grounding safety feature by using a three-prong to two-prong adapter. If necessary, have
outlet ground reliability checked by a qualified electrician.
Never plug into an outlet that is greater than 120 Volts AC.
Keep all cords away from heated or hot surfaces.
Ensure all cables and cords are routed in a way such that they will not become entangled
or pinched.

WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ÌElectrical CAUTIONS
Do not open assemblies such as the motors, hand control unit, junction boxes or
electrical control boxes. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Only trained service
personnel are qualified to repair these parts. If uncertified individuals perform any work
on these beds, the warranty is voided.
Do not use parts, accessories, or adapters other than those authorized by Medline.
Unplug the power cord BEFORE performing any maintenance on the bed.
After installing any connectors into the junction box, be sure the cable plug is secure
otherwise injury or damage may occur.
DO NOT force connectors into the junction box otherwise injury or damage may occur.
DO NOT unplug the power cord from the junction box.
DO NOT operate the bed unless the ground wire is attached to frame.
ÌWeight Limitations
The TOTAL weight limit of the Medline Home Care Bed (including accessories, mattress,
occupant and any other object positioned on the bed) is 450 lbs for full or semi electric
beds, and 500 lbs for manual bed.
Never permit more than one person on/in the bed at any time.
Replacement mattresses and bed rails with dimensions different than the original
equipment supplied or approved by Medline may not be interchangeable. Variations in
bed side rail design, and thickness, size or density of the mattress could cause
entrapment. Use ONLY authorized Medline replacement parts.
Body weight should be evenly distributed over the surface of the bed. Do not lay, sit or
lean in such a way that your entire body weight is placed only on RAISED head or foot
sections of the bed. This includes when repositioning or transferring in or out of bed.
