Important information
An electric power bed, wirelessly controlled by an IR transmitter, may
cause personal injury if used or installed incorrectly.
The following precautions should be made:
Important information to the installation engineer
• Use only non-latching (monostable) control, do not use macro
functions on an IR transmitter.
• If the user has physical difficulties at a certain angle, for instance
difficulties in breathing, the minimum/maximum angle should be
limited.
• On pneumatic control of an IR transmitter the sputum collector
should be installed to collect superfluous sputum.
• Check that the user is able to reach the sip and puff mouthpiece in
all angles on pneumatic control of the IR transmitter.
• The installing engineer shall give the following information to the
user and assisting personnel.
Important information to users and assisting personnel
• On pneumatic control of an IR transmitter the sip and puff
mouthpiece must be clean. Check that the mouthpiece will not be
stopped up.
• IR transmitters are battery operated. Exchange battery at once when
the battery indicates that it is running low or every 6 months.
• An IR receiver only works without problems if the IR signal from the
IR transmitter has a clear view. Make sure nothing covers the eye of
the IR receiver, for instance bedclothes.
• The IR receiver has no back up on power failure.
