Installation
WARNING
The Softform Active 2 Hybrid Support System is recommended to be installed on medical bed frames with bed side or
assist rails. 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 State 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 System on page 13.
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.
Electrical
DANGER
Electrical shock hazard. DO NOT remove cover. Refer to qualified service personnel.
WARNING
Before performing any maintenance to the power unit, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
DO NOT insert items into any openings of the power unit. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock by shorting the
internal components.
The power unit MUST be kept away from all heat sources and radiators during operation.
