Locking Procedure
The supervisor control unit provides the ability to lock out any or all functionality from the patient handset, preventing unwanted action being performed.

To lock out a function simultaneously press and hold the patient handset function lockout facility button – master (item 5) and the patient handset function that you wish to lockout. A light will illuminate to indicate this function is now locked.

Stowable Safety Rails

The bed has 4 stowable safety rails allowing the user to store the safety rails within the bed frame.

To Position Stowable Safety Rail in upright position

1. Pull the Stowable Safety Rail out fully from the frame, towards you
2. Rotate the Stowable Safety Rail 90° upward
3. Let the Stowable Safety Rail drop into position, where it will automatically lock in position
4. Repeat action in reverse to stow the safety rail

Locking/Unlocking the Safety Rails
To collapse the safety rail, first pull on the catch in the lock mechanism and lift the safety rail to disengage.

The Stowable Safety Rails shall not be used as support or leverage for the patient, when leaving or repositioning on the bed. When pulling the safety rail out in the horizontal position, ensure it is pulled out fully before raising vertically.

Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR}

Electronic CPR
The supervisor control panel provides a one button solution for positioning the bed in a way suitable for Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). This function cannot be carried out on the patient handset. To activate the CPR function press and hold the CPR button.

Manual CPR
In case of an emergency when the backrest needs to be lowered quickly, the bed provides a handle that overrides the beds electronics and allows the backrest to return to its flat position in a controlled manner. The handle is located in the centre of the bed on both sides. To drop the backrest quickly, squeeze the handle until the backrest is flat. Letting go of the handle when the backrest is falling will cause the backrest to stop falling, and may cause damage to the actuator. Manual CPR should only be operated in an emergency. The manual release will lower the back rest at speed.
Before using Manual CPR please ensure staff and carers are at a safe distance from the head end of the bed frame to eliminate risk of entrapment.

Dual Braking Lever

Brake lever is located at both ends of the bed. Ensure both levers are in the same position before moving.

Operating Instructions & Accessories

Removing the Head Board
To remove a headboard, ensure there are no obstructions and that the handset is safely located on another part of the bed. Lift from the two upper handles and the headboard will be removed from its location sockets.

Accessories

Note : When attaching the foam mattress to the Deprimo® bed platform, please ensure the straps are fully secure before use.
