CPR backrest release
Manual CPR release handles are located below the calf
section on either side of the bed.
If the patient suffers a cardiac arrest, pull the CPR release
handle (1). This will lower the backrest (2) to enable cardio-
pulmonary resuscitation to be carried out.
WARNING
The backrest can fall quickly; keep hands clear to avoid trapping.
Caution
The manual CPR release should only be used in an emergency;
repeated everyday use can cause premature wear.
