How to Clean Medline Bariatric Electric Bed?

• Unplug the full or semi-electric bed before cleaning.
• Medline bed should not be washed down with a pressure washers or steam cleaner. Doing so can result in problems with the electrical system.
• Inspect bed components for any exposed metal. To prevent rusting, Medline recommends covering exposed metal areas with touch-up paint.
• Electrical components (motor, junction box, and pendant which are rated as IP66), frame and head board/foot boards are washable with standard water pressure.
• The headboard and footboard should be disconnected from the frame before cleaning. When cleaning the headboard and footboard, stand them in an upright position, and use a mild detergent and soft cloth. Gently scrub all exterior surfaces. The headboard and footboard can be rinsed thoroughly with warm water. Do not exceed a water temperature of 110 degrees F.
• Thoroughly dry all bed parts and components.
• Disassemble the headspring and footspring assemblies before washing. When cleaning headspring and foot spring assemblies, stand the assemblies on edge and wash with a mild detergent. Using a soft sponge or brush, scrub all exterior surfaces. Rinse thoroughly, then completely towel dry all components.
• To disinfect the bed, wipe down all surfaces of the bed with a disinfectant and allow to dry completely

Warning:

• When using liquids in or around the bed, caution should be taken to ensure that liquids of any kind are not spilled. If a liquid is spilled in or around the electric bed, unplug the bed immediately before cleaning Clean up the spill and let the bed or area around it dry thoroughly before using the electric controls again.
• Close supervision is necessary when this product is used by or near children or physically challenged individuals.
• Never permit anyone to be under the bed or in between the raised bed frame components at any time.
• Never permit more than one person on/in the bed at any time.- Keep the bed a minimum of 12 inches away from any direct heat source.
• When the bed is not going to be used for an extended period, UNPLUG electric bed from the wall outlet.
• DO NOT unplug the power cord from the junction box.
• The bed is not designed to be used as a patient transport. When transporting a patient, use an approved patient transport, otherwise injury or damage may result.
• After assembly, test to make sure that all sections are properly and securely in place and operate correctly BEFORE use.
• Ensure that the head and foot spring sections are securely locked to each other and to the head and foot-boards BEFORE use.
• Ensure that the pendant and power cords are routed and secured properly so the cords do not become entangled, pinched and/or severed during operation of the electric bed. NEVER operate the bed if these cords are damaged.
• Keep all moving parts and all drive shafts free of obstructions during operation of the bed. (i.e. blankets/sheets, heating blankets/pads, tubing, wiring, etc. and other types of products using electric cords which may get tangled around the bed, legs or optional side rails) or serious injuries may occur.
• Ensure the bed caster locks are properly engaged to prevent casters from moving whenever the bed is stationary. ALWAYS lock the caster locks when transferring into or out of the bed. Inspect the caster locks BEFORE using the bed to ensure the locks function adequately. Even with casters properly locked, some floor surfaces will allow the bed to move under some conditions. Use of the bed on such floor surfaces must be evaluated by the care provider.
• If any part of the bed is not working properly, call a qualified technician to examine and repair it.
• Do not operate the bed with the HI/LO Crank Handle attached to bed otherwise serious injury may occur.

Entrapment may occur:

• Proper patient assessment and monitoring, and proper maintenance and use of equipment is required to reduce the risk of entrapment. Variations in bed rail dimensions, and mattress thickness, size or density could increase the risk of entrapment. Visit the FDA website at http://www.fda.gov to learn about the risks of entrapment. Once patient assessment concludes that the patients condition increases the chance of entrapment, the bed MUST be in the flat position when left unattended.

Caution:

• The bed rails may become deformed or broken if excessive side pressure is exerted on the bed rails. This bed rail is not an assist rail for getting into or out of bed. DO NOT use the bed rails as push handles when moving the bed.
• The bed rails are NOT intended nor may be used for restraint purposes. If an individual is capable of injuring himself/herself, a physician or a healthcare professional should be consulted for alternative means of safe restraint.
• Trapeze units must be positioned on a universal bed end as near as possible to the center point of the bed end. The trapeze is to be used only in assisting the patient in re positioning or transferring in or out of the manual/ electric bed.
• NEVER allow patients to use trapeze or traction units as a total individual weight support.
• Improper use of some bed accessories (patient restraints, side rails, trapeze devices, etc.) can cause patient injury or death. Consult your health care professional or the accessory manufacturer for proper use instructions. If using optional bed side rails and bed extension kit, check to ensure they are properly and securely in place BEFORE using the bed.
• Individuals that cannot prevent themselves from rolling/climbing out of the bed may require alternative safe means of restraint.
• Replacement mattresses and bed rails with dimensions different than the original equipment supplied or approved by Medline may not be interchangeable.
• Variations in bed side rail design and thickness, size or density of the mattress could cause entrapment. Use ONLY authorized Medline replacement parts.
• For semi-electric and full electric beds, always remove the manual crank before performing electronic functions. If left in place, the crank will turn when the motor is on and could cause personal injury or damage to the bed.
• When disassembling the bed, make sure all parts are in the lowest position.
