IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNING INFORMATION

This product is a variable height, adjustable mattress

platform. The expected service life of this product is

fteen years. Beds manufactured by Basic American Medical Products are designed for use within an institutional healthcare environment (i.e. assisted living, skilled nursing, transitional care, rehabilitation care, Environment (3), as dened in IEC60601-2-52 Safety Standard.).

The maximum safe working load for the Matrix series bed, including bedding, resident / patient, support surface, and accessories, is 450 lb (204.1 kg), with weight evenly distributed, and maximum patient weight is 400 lb (181.4 kg). Accessory weights follow:

ACCESSORY DESCRIPTION WEIGHT

Extension Kit, Standard Width 12 lb (5.4 kg)

Extension Kit, Wide 14 lb (6.4 kg)

Trapeze Adapter 13 lb (5.9 kg)

Trapeze 16 lb (7.3 kg)

Half Counter-Rotating Assist Device (Set of 2)

Fixed Assist Bar, Head 6 lb (2.7 kg)

Pivoting Assist Bar 10 lb (4.5 kg)

21 lb (9.5 kg)

The bed’s Hand Control Pendant Cable MUST BE

ROUTED AND SECURED PROPERLY to ensure it does not become entangled and eventually severed during use. Also ensure electrical cords DO NOT get tangled around the bed, side rails, or legs during transport or normal operation of the bed.

When using nasal-type or masked-type administering

equipment, all oxygen or air tubing MUST BE ROUTED AND SECURED PROPERLY to ensure the tubing does not become entangled and eventually severed during the normal operation of the bed.

Keep all moving parts free of obstructions (i.e. blankets / sheets, heating blankets / pads, wiring, etc.).

DO NOT use the assist devices as push handles for

moving the bed. Assist devices can be deformed or broken if excessive side pressure is exerted. Assist devices are not meant for patients considered high risks for entrapment (i.e. patients with pre-existing conditions such as confusion, restlessness, lack of muscle control, altered mental status, either organic or medicinal, or a combination thereof). Additional safety measures should be considered for such highrisk patients.

WARNING: To avoid risk of electric shock, this

equipment must be connected to a supply mains with protective earth (i.e. a grounded outlet).

DO NOT open assemblies such as the Actuators,

Hand Control Pendant, or Control Box. If unauthorized personnel perform work on these components, the manufacturer’s warranty becomes

void.

DO NOT use unauthorized parts, accessories, or

adapters other than those specied / authorized by GF Health Products, Inc.

When operating the HI/LO, Knee, or Back Functions

of the bed, ALWAYS ensure the conned individual is positioned properly within the connes of the bed. DO NOT let any extremities protrude over the side or between the bed rails when performing these functions.

The bed should be lowered to lowest position when

resident is left unattended. DO NOT lower the bed when objects are beneath it. Failure to inspect under the bed can result in personal injury or property

damage.

NEVER permit more than one person on / in the bed

at any time.

Body weight should be evenly distributed over the

sleeping surface of the bed. DO NOT allow the patient to lie, sit, or lean in such a way that their entire body weight is placed only on the raised head or foot section of the bed. This especially applies when repositioning or transferring a patient in or out of the bed. Increased risk may occur when the patient’s size and / or weight are inappropriate for the bed’s dimensions or weight capacity.

Risk of entanglement or injury may occur if the

mattress used with mattress retainers does not ll the entire width between stops or which compresses to less than 1.50 inches under user’s weight.

Mattress must be properly sized to t the mattress

support platform and must remain centered on the support platform relative to State and Federal guidelines. Recommended minimum dimensions of mattress are 35-36 inches wide and 6 inches deep. Length and width should match the mattress support platform. Use of an improperly tted mattress could result in injury or death. Standard mattresses are 35 inches wide and 6 inches deep, and wide mattresses are 42 inches wide and 6 inches deep.

IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNING INFORMATION

IMPORTANT: Powered air mattress surfaces may

pose a risk of entrapment. Prior to use, ensure the therapeutic benets outweigh the risk of entrapment.

The bed is intended for use within a temperature

range of 10˚C to 40˚C. It has a water resistance rating of IPX4 and IS NOT to be power washed or

submerged.

using an appropriate dilution of mild soap and water.

The head / back and knee / foot decks can be lifted

freely by hand for easy cleaning access when patients are not in the bed. If you lift the head / back or knee / foot deck for any reason, take great care when lowering back down to the prone position - ensure all body parts are clear of the space between the deck and the bed prior to slowly lowering any deck manually. To avoid injury, DO NOT LET DECKS FALL FREELY FROM ANY ANGLE.

Note: The bed may be cleaned as needed

WARNING: This product can expose you to

chemicals including Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to

www.p65warnings.ca.gov/furniture.

WARNING: ALWAYS position bed so that the power

cord and plug are easily accessed.

Proper routing and tie-off of electrical cabling,

especially the power cord, is essential for proper operation and to ensure safety from electrical shock. In the event you are replacing any electrical cabling on your bed, you must ensure the cables are free from pinch points, obstructions, or stretched so tight that they may come loose or become damaged. In addition, cables should be tied off in such a way to secure them and keep them free from tangling on any part of the bed during normal operation. Refer to pages 30 and 31 for proper cable routing.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) INFORMATION

WARNING: Medical Electrical Equipment needs

special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in this manual.

WARNING: Electronic equipment may be inuenced

by Radio Frequency (RFI). Caution should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communications in the area around such equipment. Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the bed including specied bed cables. Degradation of the performance of the bed

could result.

IF RFI causes erratic behavior, unplug the

electric bed immediately. Leave unplugged while transmission is in progress.

WARNING: The use of accessories, transducers,

and cables other than those specied by the manufacturer may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the bed. GF Health cables and accessories include motor cables, mains cable, pendant cables, back up battery and cable, USB port cable and UBL and cable.

WARNING: This bed should not be used adjacent

to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use with other equipment is necessary, this bed and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.

ENTRAPMENT AND COMPLIANCE INFORMATION

On April 10, 2006, the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) released long-awaited guidelines for reducing the risk of bed entrapment: “Hospital Bed System Dimensional and Assessment Guidance to Reduce Entrapment”. The new Guidance identies potential entrapment areas and those body parts most at risk for entrapment; provides design criteria for manufacturers of new hospital/convalescent beds; recommends particular test methods to assess the conformance of existing hospital / convalescent bed systems; and answers frequently-asked questions about entrapment issues.

The new Guidance was a result of a long-standing collaboration between the FDA and the Hospital Bed Safety Workgroup (HBSW), formed in 1999. GF Health Products, Inc.’s Long Term Care Bed division: Basic American Medical Products, is an HBSW charter member. As a result of our commitment to product safety, all our current long-term

care beds have been strictly tested and conform to the new FDA Guidance.

The guidelines set forth by the FDA Guidance lay out specic dimensional limitations on potentially injury-threatening gaps and spaces that can occur between bed system components, such as rails, when not properly installed. GF Health Products, Inc. and Basic American Medical Products have conformed to these guidelines from a manufacturing aspect. However, entrapment issues can often arise when a healthcare provider / facility has not correctly assembled the components on a bed. It is essential that the provider / facility fully understand their responsibility in complying to the guidelines set forth by the FDA in order to avoid injury. To that end, we have provided the FDA’s web address at right as a resource for understanding and following these guidelines for the safety of patients / residents.

It is also essential to have the correct bed components / accessories that correspond with the needs of the patient / resident and the particular bed you have purchased. Matching the correct bed component that correlates with the regulatory guidelines can be a daunting task. Our sales team at GF Health Products, Inc. and our friendly Customer Service Representatives at Basic American Medical Products can help you sift through the wide array of compliance and bed options. We will help you determine which bed / bed part is best for the patient’s / resident’s particular needs and help you with any compliance issues.

The MATRIX series bed and accessories listed in these instructions are in full compliance with FDA guidelines for reducing the risk of bed entrapment: “Hospital Bed

System Dimensional and Assessment Guidance to Reduce Entrapment”.

2. Squeeze the ends toward the center of the wallsaver until the end tabs slide out of the caster base holes.

WALLSAVER POSITIONS

There are two positions for the Matrix series wallsaver. Holes nearest the center of the bed are for both 76" and 80" beds, and the holes closest to the head end are for use when a Trapeze Adapter is added to the bed.

The Standard Wallsaver will prevent the bed from making contact with the wall in all positions except Trendelenburg. If the Advanced Positioning (APS) bed is to be used in Trendelenburg position, the Trendelenburg Wallsaver must be used to prevent the bed from making contact with the wall.

A Trendelenburg Wallsaver is available when the bed is ordered with a Staff Control with Advanced Positioning.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NOTHING WORKS — NO POWER

1. Verify the outlet is supplying power.

2. Ensure the power cord is not pinched,

frayed, or damaged in any way. Replace the Power Cord if damaged.

3. Ensure all power cord, T-Cable, Hand

Control Pendant, and Control Box receptacles and plugs are seated and fully inserted.

4. Ensure the Staff Control does not have

functions locked out.

5. Plug the Hand Control Pendant directly into

the Control Box. If the bed works, replace the T-Cable.

AUDIBLE SYSTEM WARNING (INTERMITTENT BEEP)

NOTE: A function that is faulty or has lost motor position will cause the Control Box to beep intermittently when the faulty

function’s Hand Control Pendant button is

depressed. All buttons depressed after the error function will also be non-functional and will cause a Control Box beep. If equipped with a Staff Control, the staff icons

will also ash to indicate a system error.

When the Audible Beeping Error signal is heard:

On the Hand Control Pendant, simultaneously press and hold both the HI/LO UP and HI/LO DOWN buttons (the Control Box

should start beeping) for approximately ve

seconds until beeping stops.

2. Reinitialize the motors by lowering the bed

completely. In the following order, press the Hand Control Pendant buttons until the motors stop:

a. HI/LO DOWN b. HEAD DECK ANGLE DOWN c.

KNEE AND FOOT DECK ANGLE DOWN

6. Replace the Hand Control Pendant with a known good operating Pendant. If the bed works, replace the Hand Control Pendant.

7. If the bed still isn’t functional after steps 1-6,

replace the Control Box.

8. New Control Box installation will require motor Initialization.

NOTE: Service Control Box Motor Initialization Procedure as well as detailed troubleshooting and service instruction can be found at www.grahameld.com.

3. This lowering of the motors will reset the system and should resolve minor synchronization or position lost issues. Check the bed functionality.

4. If an audible error beep occurs during reset lowering of a function or while checking functionality, the function that initiated the beep is faulty.

5. After the faulty function initiates the beep, all other button functions will cause a beep and become non-functional.

6. To operate and use the other good functions, perform step 1 again to reset the system.

7. Reinitialize the motors as in Step 2 but only lower the motors that did not initiate the audible error beep.

8. These functions will operate normally until the faulty function button is pressed again.

NOTE: If the issue is not resolved, go to www.grahameld.com for more detailed troubleshooting and service instructions.

KNEE DOESN’T LOWER, AUDIBLE SOLID BEEP WARNING

NOTE: As a result of the bed’s programmed

capability to achieve APS positioning,

the Knee Motor will not lower if the HI/LO motors are not level. This is a safety

measure to prevent the patient from sliding out of bed while in Chair Position.

The control box will emit a solid beep warning when attempting to lower the knee if this condition is present.

NOTE: This condition can also happen with beds not equipped with APS positioning or if the frame appears to be visually level.

If the solid beep is present when trying to lower the knee:

1. Return the bed frame to a level position by pressing the Hand Control Pendant UNDO CHAIR button until the bed is level. Continue holding the button down until the knee retracts.

2. If not equipped with chair function, or if step 1 did not resolve the issue, lower the bed completely: press the HI/LO DOWN button until the motors shut off.

3. Now lower the knee using the KNEE AND FOOT DECK ANGLE DOWN button.

NOTE: If the issue is not resolved, go to www.grahameld.com for more detailed troubleshooting and service instructions.
