IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNING INFORMATION
ZENITH SERIES
This product is a variable height, adjustable mattress
platform, which will provide comfort and convenience
!
for residents/patients and caregivers in long term
care settings.
The MAXIMUM SAFE WORKING LOAD for the
Zenith 7000 Bed, including the mattress, panels,
!
side rails, and accessories, taking into consideration
proper positioning, patient size, realignment, transfer, and overall care, is 500 lbs.
NEVER operate the bed if a Power Cord or Plug is
!
damaged or not working properly. Contact qualified
Service Personnel for examination and repair. Always
unplug the Power Cord when performing any maintenance on the bed.

perform work on these components, the manufacturer’s
warranty becomes void.
DO NOT use unauthorized parts, accessories, or
!
adapters other than those specified/authorized by
GF Health Products, Inc.
When operating the High/Low, Knee, or Back Functions
of the bed, ALWAYS ensure that the confined individual
!
is positioned properly within the confines of the bed.
DO NOT let any extremities protrude over the side or
between the bed rails when performing these functions.
DO NOT lower the bed when objects are beneath it.
!
Failure to inspect under the bed can result in damage
to property or personal injury.
The beds Pendant Cord MUST BE ROUTED AND
SECURED PROPERLY to ensure it does not become
!
entangled and eventually severed during use. Also
make sure all electrical cords DO NOT get tangled
around the bed, side rails, or legs during transport or
normal operation of the bed.

!
sheets, heating blankets/pads, wiring, etc.)
DO NOT use the side rails as push handles for moving
the bed. Side rails can be deformed or broken if excessive
!
side pressure is exerted. Rails are not meant for patients
considered as 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 high-risk patients.
NEVER permit more than one (1) 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 lay, sit, or lean in such a way that their entire body
weight is placed only
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 beds dimensions or weight capacity.
The bed is intended for use, storage, and transport within
a temperature range of -40˚C to +60˚C (-40˚F to 140˚F).
!

ENTRAPMENT & COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
ZENITH SERIES
On March 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 andAssessment Guidance to Reduce Entrapment”. The new Guidance
identifies 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. Graham-Field’s Long-Term Care Bed
division: Basic American Medical Products, is an HBSW charter
member. As a result of Graham-Field’s commitment to product
safety, all of Graham-Field’s current long-term care beds havebeen strictly tested and conform to the new FDA Guidance.
The guidelines set forth by the FDA Guidance layout specific
dimensional limitations on potentially injury-threatening gaps
and spaces that can occur between bed system components,
such as rails, when not properly installed. Graham-Field 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 links below as
a resource for understanding and following these guidelines for
the safety of the patient/resident.
Graham-Field encourages all hospital bed owners to read the FDA guidance.
◗ Please visit the FDA’s Hospital Bed Safety page at . . .
"http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/"
◗ To find many resources, including a link to the new Guidance
page go to "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/guidance/1537.pdf"
◗ Ordering instructions for a Testing Kit which you can use
to determine whether your beds are in conformance with the
guidance can be found at . . .
"http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/entrapmentkit.html"("http://
◗ A discussion of Clinical Guidance protocol which you can use
to assess an individual patient’s needs when using a side rail can
be found at . . .
"http://www.ute.kendal.org/learning/documents/clinicalguidance_SideRails.pdf"
These resources will supply you with the knowledge to evaluate
the safety of the hospital beds you currently own.
It is also essential to have the correct bed components/accessories that correspond with the needs of your 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 Graham-Field Sales team and the 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 your patient’s/resident’s particular needs and help you
with your compliance issues.

RE-ALIGNMENT OF HI/LO MOTORS
ZENITH SERIES
The Zenith 7000 Hi/Lo Motors are aligned and synchronized to work smoothly in tandem with one another. In the event of a
power surge or power outage, or if you are replacing an existing motor, it may be necessary to “re-align” your Hi/Lo motors.
You will know that they need this process if the bed appears to be out of its horizontal position when laying flat (i.e the
head end or foot end is tilting slightly downward or upward.
“RE-ALIGNMENT” is a fairly easy process and can be completed within a matter of minutes using the beds pendant/
hand controller. The procedure is described below.
STEP 1: Unplug the beds power cord from the wall outlet. Disconnect
the Hand Control from the T-Cable on either side of the bed.
STEP 2: The 7000 bed can be purchased with an optional Staff Control
in the footboard. Disconnect the short, black Control Cable
and grey T-Cable from the staff control cables running from
underneath the metal shroud on the inside of the footboard.
STEP 3: Plug the Hand Control plug directly into the short, black
Control Cable at the foot end. (
control from the re-alignment process.
This will eliminate the staff
) Make sure the pendant’s
phone jack is seated properly and firmly inside the Control
Cable plug. Re-plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
STEP 4: Using the Hi/Lo “DOWN” button on the Hand Controller,
lower the bed until it won’t go any further.
STEP 5: Once the bed has stopped, press the DOWN Hi/Lo button for
15-20 SECONDS to enter into the re-calibration mode.
STEP 6: Release the “DOWN” Hi/Lo button.
STEP 7: Press the “DOWN” Hi/Lo button again to see if the bed will
lower any more. If it still lowers, continue pressing the “Down”
button repeatedly until the bed has reached its final horizontal,
down position and CANNOT MOVE ANY FURTHER. (
If you
have installed a new Hi/Lo motor and your bed is angled, this
process will lower the extended hi/lo motor until it is re-aligned
with the new motor.
STEP 8: Unplug the beds power cord from the wall outlet
)
. Unplug the
Hand Control plug from the short, black Control Cable and
re-plug into the T-Cable plug on either side of the beds seat
pan (your preference).
STEP 9: Re-plug the black Control Cable and grey T-Cable end plugs
into their corresponding Staff Control Cable ends. Make sure
plugs are firmly seated. Re-plug the power cord into the outlet
STEP 10: Using your Hand Control, test the Hi/Lo motor functions by
pressing the UP and DOWN buttons, making sure the bed
goes up and down smoothly.
STEP 11: If you are still having trouble with a Hi/Lo motor function,
please see previous page to test motors and cables.
