Safety - Waterbed
1. Never use waterbed without the mattress. Touching pure copper heating
surface can cause burn!
2. Never use the mattress without water (Only distilled water can be used.)
as the patient can compress it and can touch copper heating surface
almost directly! (Check of filling up: Push the middle of one half of the
mattress with one hand till reaching bottom. Then push with other hand
the middle of the other half - minimum ½ meter from the first point. It
must not reach the bottom.)
3. Water leakage is shown on display (sensed electronically in wastewater
tank). In case of waterloss failure, treatment can be finished, but call for
service soon. If water flows quickly, treatment must be stopped, switch
off the bed and pull out mains plug.
4. In case of noticing water in the plastic tray or on the surface of the
mattress, please check water level in mattress and presence of possible
mechanical damage. Do not use damaged mattress, avoid electric shock.
5. The patient’s surface must not be damp. After cleaning the surface the
user have to wait until it is dry.
6. Using EHY2000plus with not heated waterbed may decrease the
temperature of the body of a patient. In case of everyday use keep the
bed switched on permanently. (Heating up the water from room
temperature to treating temperature level requires about 12 -16 hours.)
7. Check the temperature settings before each treatment! Recommended
temperature setting is 32°C, because the treatment itself is heats also, so
patient will have sweaty skin which is not suitable for correct
EHY2000plus treatment.
8. Check the alarm system daily during continuous use. Switch off for a
short time. Switching on the waterbed, a self-test is implemented, and a
warning is going on, till user sets the desired temperature again.
9. Do not use other surgical or endocardial devices while patient is on the
waterbed.
Warning
A SPECIAL TRAINING IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT!
FOR THIS PROCEDURE ASK THE MANUFACTURER.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. DUE TO
DANGEROUS HIGH VOLTAGE, DO NOT OPEN THE CABINET, FOR
