• Always apply the brakes when a patient is getting on the product or off the product or when the product is not moving.
Push on the product to make sure that the brakes are locked. Injury could result if the product moves while a patient is
getting on the product or off the product.
• Always remove any devices that may be in the way before you raise or lower the litter.
• Always put the product in the lowest position with the siderails up and latched when you leave a patient unattended on
the product. Do not leave the product at a higher height.
• Always lock the siderails in the full up position with the sleep surface flat in the lowest position when you transport a
patient.
• Always keep the patient's limbs away from the siderail spindles when you lower the siderail.
• Do not allow the siderails to lower on their own.
• Always keep hands and fingers clear of the Fowler backrest release handles and the Fowler backrest frame when you
lower the Fowler backrest.
• Always use caution when you raise a pneumatic Fowler backrest while a patient is on the product. Use proper lifting
techniques and get help, if necessary.
• Always use caution if the defibrillator tray/foot extender, footboard/chart holder, or upright oxygen bottle holder is
attached to avoid pinching your fingers when you position the foot end push handle option.
• Do not use the IV pole as a push/pull device. Product damage may occur.
• Do not place objects that exceed 40 lb (18 kg) in the upright oxygen bottle holder.
• Always use caution when you attach restraint straps. Patient or operator injury may occur. Physical restraints, even if
secured, may result in serious harm to patients and operators, including entanglement, entrapment, physical injury, or
death.
• Always attach restraint straps or devices only at the identified attachment points of the product. Failure to do so may
result in patient or operator injury. Do not attach restraints straps to the siderail.
• Always refer to the applicable state and federal restrictions and regulations and the appropriate facility protocols before
you use any restraint strap or device.
• Do not clean, service, or perform maintenance while the product is in use.
• Do not immerse the mattress in cleaning or disinfectant solutions. Excess moisture could cause product malfunction that
results in product damage or patient injury.
• Do not allow fluid to pool on the mattress. Fluids can cause corrosion of components and may cause the safety and
performance of this product to become unpredictable.
• Always inspect mattress covers for tears, punctures, excessive wear, and misaligned zippers every time you clean the
covers. Remove and replace a damaged mattress to prevent cross-contamination.
