Grounding Instructions
Electric beds are equipped with three‐prong (grounding) plugs for protection against possible shock hazards. Where a two‐prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the two‐prong receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three‐prong wall receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code. If you must use an extension cord, use only a three‐wire extension cord having the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected. DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from any plug used with or for Invacare products. In addition, Invacare has placed RED warning tags on some equipment. DO NOT remove these tags.
For proper grounding, junction box MUST be securely connected to the bed with metal screws and the spacer provided or electrical shock could occur.
Radio Frequency Interference
Electronic equipment may be influenced by Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). Caution should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communications equipment in the area around such equipment. If RFI causes erratic behavior, unplug the electric bed immediately. Leave unplugged while transmission is in progress.
Weight Limitations
The total weight limit of the Bariatric Bed (including accessories, mattress, occupant and any other objects positioned on the bed) is 750 pounds (340 kg); 675 pounds (308 kg) patient weight.
NEVER permit more than one person on the electric bed at any time.
Body weight should be evenly distributed over the surface of the manual/electric 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.
