Installation
WARNING
The MA50CE series is recommended to be installed on medical bed frames with bed side or assist rails To properly install
this overlay system onto a mattress, refer to Installing the Mattress Overlay System (MA50CE) on page 15. It is preferred
that the rails be in the raised position whenever a patient is on the bed. Health care professionals assigned to each case
should make the final determination whether side or assist rails are warranted after assessing patient risks of entrapment
and falls in accordance with applicable patient restraint legislation or facility interpretation of such legislation.
Controls on the footboard may be obstructed by the power unit on a few bed frames. It may be necessary to relocate the
power unit. Refer to Installing the Power Unit on page 16.
Check that air hoses and power cord are clear of moving bed components before placing a patient on the bed. Operate all
bed frame motorized functions through their full range of motion to be certain that there is no pulling, interference or
pinching.
