Positioning Specifications
The Matrix II Bed Series has infinite positions that serve to help the patient be more comfortable and gives the practitioner easy access during procedures, transfers, etc. The correct placement of the bed is essential for the patient’s safety.
The bed should always be set to its lowest position when the patient is left unattended. The head and knee functions allow the resident/patient to raise their head or legs.
The recommended maximum distance for the head function is 70˚. In the event of a power outage, it is preferred that the knee and back sections be lowered using an emergency battery pack. If unavailable, the sections can be set into the flat position by easily removing the actuator mounting pins.
