User Instructions
Model IC-6629
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. When using side rails, only use side rails that can be positioned so that the gap between the side rails is large enough that the trunk and hips can easily pass through it. Make sure when raising the bed, head sec­tion or foot section does not create any of the previously described gaps.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. If side rail is used, follow guidelines in rail User's Manual. Use of side rail can expose patient to risk of suffocation if head becomes trapped between mattress and side rail.
POSSIBLE INJURY. Make sure side rails are secured properly before using bed.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. Individuals with physical limitations who cannot prevent themselves from rolling or climbing out of the bed may require other means of safe positioning.
POSSIBLE DAMAGE OR INJURY. Do not use the side rails as handles when moving the bed.
POSSIBLE DAMAGE OR INJURY. Side rails do not fall within any weight limita­tions and may be damaged if excessive pressure is placed on them. Side rails are for the purpose of aiding in turning and repositioning within the bed and are not intended to be used for restraint purposes.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the mattress from the bed.
2. Place the bed in the flat position and position one crossbrace between the second and third springs on the head-end section of the bed (Figure 1).
3. Ensure the bed hooks are on the bottom side of the crossbrace and not the top
4. Secure one bed hook to the bedspring angle iron and compress crossbrace until it is short enough to attach to the opposite side of the bed (Figure 2). Ensure the crossbrace attaches to the bedspring angle iron (Figure 3).
5. Rotate the barrel so the long end faces the ground.
6. Inspect the crossbraces to ensure proper and secure attachment.
7. Position another crossbrace between the second and third springs on the foot-end section of the bed. Then repeat steps 3-6 on to ensure proper installation.
8. Once crossbraces are securely attached, place mattress on the bed frame.
9. Insert the rail into the slide tubes. Pull the plunger knob to adjust the rail height.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, use a mattress thick enough and wide enough so that the gap between the top of the mattress and the bottom of the side rails and the gap between the side of the mattress and the side rails is small enough to prevent a patient from getting his or her head or neck between the mattress and the side rail. Assure that articulating the bed, head section or foot section does not create any hazardous gaps. Failure to do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, only use side rails that can be positioned so that the gap between the headboard or foot board and the side rails is small enough to prevent a patient from getting his or her head or neck between the mattress and the side rail or large enough that the trunk and hips can easily pass through it. Assure that articulating the bed, head section or foot section does not create any hazardous gaps. Failure to do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. When using side rails, only use side rails in which any gaps between the rail body members are small enough to prevent a patient from getting his or her head or neck inside the rail body. Failure to do so could result in injury or possible suffocation.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. When using multiple side rails on one or both sides of the bed, only use side rails that can be positioned so that the gap between the side rails is large enough that the trunk and hips can easily pass through it. Assure that articulating the bed head section or foot section does not create any hazardous gaps.
