Foreword

We are delighted that you have chosen Völker beds.

We are also grateful for the trust you have placed in our company and our products.

This step is undoubtedly the result of extensive considerations and examinations of the requirements that you have placed on new care or hospital beds based on your previous experiences.

You clearly have good reasons to choose a Völker bed.

We promise you: Völker beds will not disappoint you.

Völker beds do not carry a worldwide reputation as highly innovative medical aids without good reason. This refers not only to the design principle, which was completely redeveloped by Völker. It also refers to the multitude of product advantages which were continually tested and improved for their practicality. These will support the comfort of the occupant/patient and also help reduce the load of daily care work.

We kept a modern design and effective functionality in mind when developing Völker beds. The beds are designed with a pleasant hotel look. The electronics allow com-

fortable adjustment of the bed using quiet motors.

Having purchased these beds, the responsibility for their correct and appropriate use is transferred to you. Consequently, we strongly advise that you consult the enclosed instructions for use to learn about the technical features, handling and use of all the functions.

Notes | Designated purpose 1/2

Intended use

The Völker beds 5384 Kepler are beds for medical use and are intended for the laying down and care of adult occupants/patients in care institutions and retirement homes (Application environment 3 as per DIN EN 60601-2-52).

The application environment 3 involves long-term care in a medical sector in which medical surveillance is required and supervision is provided if necessary. This includes retirement and nursing homes, rehabilitation facilities and geriatric facilities.

The bed is intended for use by people over 12 years of age and with a height of 146 cm to 185 cm, as well as a body weight of 40 kg to 195 kg. Their Body Mass Index (BMI) must be over 17.

The Body Mass Index is an index value derived from body weight and height.

The BMI is calculated from the formula:

Body weight kg BMI = Height2

≥ 40 kg

≥ 146 cm

BMI ≥

The safe working load of the bed is 230 kg. To calculate the maximum patient weight, DIN EN 60601-2-52:2010 stipulates subtracting from the safe working load, when using the bed in application environment 3, 20 kg for the weight of the mattress and 15 kg for accessories as well as the load that is borne by the accessories.

Any use of the Völker bed extending beyond this intended use is excluded from a potential liability.

The safe working load and the maximum patient weight can be taken from the following table:

Notes | Designated purpose 2/2

Inappropriate use

Inappropriate use can be dangerous.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• Incorrect actuation of electrical functions and uncontrolled positioning

• Operation of the bed by the occupant/ patient without having received prior instruction in how to do so

• Use of other electrical equipment on the bed

• Pulling on cables to move the bed

• Removing electrical plug connections by pulling on the cable

• Use of the bed on a slope of more than six degrees of inclination (the bed's brakes are designed for an angle of inclination of no more than ten degrees)

• Any attempt to move the bed while it is in braked position

• Use of the bed to transport people

• Use of the bed for transport within a vehicle

• Overloading of the bed beyond the specified safe working load

CAUTION The bed may not be

used for patients/occupants under 12 years of age or who are less than 146 cm tall.

WARNING The bed may not be

placed right next to or stacked up with other equipment. Should the operation be near to or stacked up with other equipment be necessary, then it must be ensured that the operation of the bed is observed, and correct use in this arrangement is checked.

Notes | General regulations, user training / instruction, further requirements

General Requirements

The bed must only be operated and used in accordance with its designated purpose, in line with the applicable conditions, the generally acknowledged rules of technology and the occupational safety and accident prevention guidelines. The bed must not be operated in a faulty state that could endanger its occupant/patient, care personnel or third parties.

User training

The bed may only be operated by individuals whose training or understanding and experience offer surety for correct handling.

User instruction

The thorough induction of care personnel in the operation of the bed can be provided by Völker or its representatives at the customer's request. Attendance of such training can be certified and confirmed by Völker using the

form provided for this purpose, specifying the name, date and signature. Occupants/patients must be instructed in the use of the bed before care personnel can hand over control to them.

Other requirements

Whoever is in charge of the activation, operation or preparation of the bed must have been given a copy of these instructions for use (in printed or electronic form) and have read them.

To avoid operating errors and to safeguard the smooth operation of the bed, care personnel must always have access to the safety notes below.

Flooring requirements

Increasingly overweight patients and occupants have caused a consistent increase in demands on hospital and healthcare beds in recent years. Völker has addressed this topic by increasing the "safe working load" for the beds. The higher strain requirements are not

limited to beds only, they apply also to static and floor requirements.

We therefore recommend using flooring that is designed for these strains in areas where the beds are used. This is flooring which is classified and properly laid according to DIN EN 685 minimum class 32 or 33. This is flooring for areas intended for public and industrial use with moderate or heavy traffic.

Floors corresponding to the above classifications can be marked with the following logo:

Notes | General safety notes 1/4

Warning symbols

Information marked with this symbol must always be read and strictly observed.

CAUTION represents potential-

ly dangerous situations that can cause slight physical injuries.

DANGER represents an immediate

threat of danger that will cause serious physical injury or death.

WARNING represents potentially

dangerous situations that can lead to serious physical injury or death.

NOTE warns of potential damage

to objects or property.

Before first activation

Care personnel must read these instructions for use carefully and in full before the bed is activated for the first time.

Before the bed is activated, care personnel must be instructed in the handling of the bed using the instructions for use. In addition, the potential risks which may arise despite the proper operation of the bed must also be pointed out in full.

Before and during use

Before each use of the bed, the user must be sure that the bed is in a proper condition and that safe use is ensured (Functional check  71).

WARNING If other devices are

operated on the bed, which are provided with cables, air hoses or similar, make sure that these lines are routed so that they cannot become jammed in the moving parts of the bed or be damaged.

Position of the beds

CAUTION To avoid injuries

caused by falling, we recommend (except while care is being given) that the bed is generally set at its lowest position with the guide castors fixed when the patient is asleep in the bed.

Notes | General safety notes 2/4

Transporting the bed

CAUTION The bed is not designed

for transporting people. When moving the bed, it must always be ensured that the main connection cable does not touch the ground and that the lying surface height is at least 35 cm. The bed should only be moved over a solid surface. Never attempt to push it over obstacles of over 1 cm in height. The maximum angle of inclination of the floor must not exceed 6°.

Securing the bed

CAUTION "Risk of accident"

If the bed is not moved, the guide castors must always be fixed and latched into place, if necessary, since the bed may be required as a support for when the occupant/ patient stands up or lies down. If the bed rolls away without the castors being braked, this can lead to a serious fall. Once the castors have been applied, check that the bed is actually properly parked.

The bed sometimes finds itself

in an unbraked position after each activation or reactivation and must therefore be checked subsequently to ensure the castors are fixed properly.

NOTE Please note that the brakes

are most effective only on dry, clean and slip-resistant flooring.

One-sided load on the bed

NOTE In order to prevent one-sid-

ed loads on the bed, it must not be used as a seat for persons other than the occupant/ patient (i.e. visitors must not sit on the edge of the bed).

Side rails

WARNING "Risk of entrapment"

In the case of occupants/patients whose physical or mental condition makes it necessary to use side rails to protect them from falling out of bed, the following safety measures must be observed:

• The legal permissibility of using side rails must be ascertained.

• The side rails may only be operated by trained care personnel.

• It must be ensured that the occupant/patient does not come into contact with the side rail

elements upon activation of the electrical lying surface adjustment. It is also important to ensure that no part of the body is sticking out through the side rails.

• Ensure that the side rails (or parts thereof) are either fully raised and locked in position or completely lowered.

• If the side rails are used with a person whose psychological condition makes their use necessary, then it must be ensured that the hand control is kept out of his/her reach or its functions are locked. It is also strongly recommended that side rail protection covers are used.

DANGER If these safety meas-

ures are not observed by care personnel, injuries can be caused to hands, knees, fingers, feet, legs and hips, along with haematomas and other injuries as a result of entrapment. With children or people who are less than 146 cm tall, nonobservance of these guidelines can lead to death!

Height adjustment

DANGER "Risk of entrapment

between the lower frame and/or floor and the bed frame when the bed is lowered"

It must be ensured that no people, limbs, pets, bed linen or other objects are caught between the bed frame and the lower frame and/or floor during adjustment.

DANGER "Danger of movement"

If any movement of the bed could represent a danger to the occupant /patient, all functions must be locked.

Accessories

WARNING

"Risk of injury"

Only original Völker accessories should be used! Third-party accessories must undergo testing by the operator before use.

Use of lifting devices

The lifting devices specified are appliances that can be attached to the bed for transport purposes. Patient lifters can be used.

WARNING "Risk of injury"

No lifting device must be fastened directly to the bed (patient trans- port, repair).

Notes | General safety notes 4/4

Use of oxygen equipment

DANGER "Risk of fire"

Do not use any oxygen equipment other than that which is administered via nasal prongs or masks. Never use the bed in an oxygen tent or in potentially explosive atmospheres (where flammable gases or vapours are present).

Provided it has been excluded (e.g. based on information in the instructions for use of the equipment being used) that the use of the equipment or a fault may cause the O2 concentration to rise to such a degree that there is an explosion risk, then the equipment can be used.

Rail infill panels

When using the rail infill panel, please read the separate instructions for use for this accessory. During technical checks, the rail infill panels should also be checked to ensure they are suitable for the size of side rail used.

Cleaning and disinfection

In order to maintain consistent functioning, the bed should be cleaned, disinfected and tested as soon as possible following each use, so that it can be reused immediately without risk.

Incorrect cleaning/disinfection of the bed can cause danger.

Maintenance and repair

Anyone responsible for carrying out maintenance and repair work must at least have received instruction from Völker in the service tools, have read the safety notes and the service manual and be qualified in accordance with the law on medical products § 4.

After maintenance work or repairs have been carried out, a technical check must be carried out on the affected parts and/or functions  71. During this check, it must be determined whether the bed can be used in accordance with the specifications without risk to the occupant/patient, user or a third party.

A technical check must be carried out at least once a year and after every lengthy period of non-use.

Any discernible damage, such as signs of wear and tear, loose screws or breaks/fractures must be eliminated immediately.

Electromagnetic and electrostatic interferences

The beds in model series 5384 Kepler satisfy the EMC* requirements in accordance with the law on medical products (MPG). The basis for testing is standard EN 60601-1-2.

* Law concerning the Electromagnetic Compatibility of Operating Equipment

Activation | General operating instructions

Operating time

The maximum operating time of the electric motor-driven bed functions is specified on the bed (type plate  83) or in the technical data  80.

2 min/18 min means that each electromotive adjustment may be operated for a maximum of 2 minutes, after which a pause of 18 minutes is necessary (protection against overheating).

NOTE Should the maximum

operating time of 2 minutes be exceeded repeatedly or for longer periods, protection devices on the bed may cause the electromechanical motor system to shut down. The bed must not be manoeuvred using the motors until it has cooled down sufficiently!

Battery (optional)

The optional battery in the bed has a charging capacity that permits the theoretical continuous operation of at least two adjustment cycles.

NOTE If the bed is parked at its

location and the power plug is not connected, this will cause the battery to discharge due to the buffering of the electronic components!

Exhaustively discharged batteries

can become damaged to such an extent that premature replacement may be required!

Appropriate and correct use

of the battery is essential for achieving a long battery life!

In order to guarantee electrical functionality at all times, the bed should be connected to the power plug as often as possible.

When storing the bed for a longer period, the battery must be recharged every 6 months if the storage temperature is approx. 25 ºC.

At higher storage temperatures the time intervals are less frequent.

Safety cut-out device

The bed is equipped with an electrical, self-resetting safety cut-out device that prevents the drives from overloading. In the event of very severe overloading, the bed is automatically switched off.

Installation conditions

The bed is only approved for use in dry rooms (technical data sheet). A power supply is required for the operation of the bed in any suitable room.

Please note that the mains power socket for the bed must be freely accessible and must not be obstructed, e.g. by an item of furniture.

Transporting the bed

The bed can be moved without auxiliary transportation equipment. For this, move the bed into the movement position (lying surface at a minimum height of 35 cm and release castor fixing  41).

The power cable must be secured for transporting the bed so that it cannot be rolled over or be damaged in any other way. The cable hook provided is to be used for this reason.

NOTE The standard version

of the bed can only be controlled from the foot end.

CAUTION The bed is not designed

for transporting people. If a patient is lying in the bed, it must only be pushed within the room. The bed should only be moved over a solid surface. Do not attempt to push the bed over obstacles of over 1 cm in height. The maximum angle of inclination of the floor must not exceed 6°.

NOTE The bed must be trans-

ported by at least two people, taking hold of the bed at the head and foot board.

NOTE Please be aware that

incorrect handling can lead to the battery no longer charging. Incorrect handling includes actions such as pulling the cable of the power plug to remove it from the socket, clamping the power cable between the lying surface and lying surface frame as well as running over the cable when transporting the bed.

Activation | Use of the battery (optional) 1/2

A battery is optionally available for both bed models as an option.

The battery allows the bed to be operated independent of the power supply for at least two adjustment cycles under full load.

If the bed is connected to the power supply, the battery begins to charge automatically.

Upon initial start-up, the bed must be connected to the power supply for approximately 24 hours in order to fully charge the battery.

When storing the bed for a longer period, the battery must be charged regularly (every 3 months). The maximum charge time takes approx. 12 hours.

If an acoustic signal sounds, the battery must be recharged. The battery is

deactivated just before total discharge.

Once the bed is connected to the power supply, press any button on the hand control to render it fully functional again. The battery is charged when connected to the power supply after every use

or when there has been an excessive discharge.

Battery life

The battery must be replaced after four years at the latest, or earlier depending on the intensity of use. Frequent and rapid discharging will reduce the service life of the battery. To achieve optimum service life, the battery should be connected to the power supply as often as possible. The battery must be charged at least every three months to avoid damage due to self-discharge.

NOTE If the bed is stored for a

longer period without being connected to the power supply, the battery can discharge. The degree of discharge depends on environmental conditions.

NOTE During the charging cycle,

the battery is connected to the mains supply and is therefore supplied with electricity. The current cut-off is deactivated and current flows to the bed.

WARNING If electromagnetic inter-

ference occurs with other equipment in the area around the bed, please refrain from using these devices. When the bed is being transported, it must always be handled carefully and protected from moisture.

Cleaning and disinfection 1/2

In order to maintain the functionality of the bed, the bed should be cleaned, disinfected and tested

• at regular intervals

• as required

• after each occupant/patient change

• according to the guidelines of the relevant hygiene plan

so that it can be reused immediately without risk. Incorrect cleaning/disinfection of the bed can cause danger.

The detergents used must exhibit one of the following constituents:

• Quaternary ammonium compounds

• Hydrogen peroxide

• Peroxides

Please observe the data of the detergent manufacturer. Failure to observe this note can lead to personal injury or material damage.

WARNING

"Risk of electric shock / fire and functional failure"

The bed must always be disconnected from the power supply before cleaning and disinfection.

Cleaning

Depending on the degree of soiling, we recommend cleaning the bed with a damp cloth or similar. A soft brush can also be used for stubborn dirt or stains. Do not get the bed too wet whilst cleaning.

Wipe disinfection

They must be applied at the dilution ratio specified by the relevant detergent manufacturer's instructions for use.

NOTE Solvents are not permitted.

• Grinding agents, scouring pads or other dulling substances must not be used.

• Chlorine, formaldehyde, phenol-based products and other solvents (Toluene, xylene or acetone) are not permitted.

The following instructions must be observed when using cleaning and disinfecting agents:

• The working solutions should gener-

ally be freshly prepared.

• The concentrations used should be

neither higher nor lower than those indicated. The so-called "shot" method should not be used under any circumstances. Under no circumstances should someone using a disinfectant follow their own judgement to add a cleaning agent such as soap or washing-active substances (leads to soap failure).

• There is a risk of fire or explosion from

alcoholic spray disinfectants when these are used over large areas.

• Detergents must not contain any cor-

rosive or irritant components.

Cleaning and disinfection 2/2

• They must not contain any substances that change the surface structure or gripping properties of the materials.

• Lubricants must not be affected.

• The pH value of the water must be no higher or lower than 6 - 8.

• Water should not exceed a total water hardness of 0.9 mmol/L (corresponding to 5°dH).

The specifications we have issued, do not absolve the user of the obligation to carry out his or her own checks and tests, since the ratios (e.g. water hardness) can vary depending on the geographical location. It is therefore impossible to offer legally binding assurance of certain properties.

The plugs of the cables and the sockets of the control box are only protected against splash water when plugged together and with the cover (securing clamp) provided.

•

Prevent water and detergents from penetrating into connections that are not used.

• Labels and markings may not be cleaned with a brush or with high pressure.

• Dry the bed with special care and test it before reuse.

• Stubborn dirt or stains should be soaked before cleaning (please check beforehand).

Spray lances and automatic washing systems

WARNING

Cleaning and disinfection using spray lances from high-pressure cleaning equipment and in automatic bed washing systems is not permissible.

If unsuitable washing and disinfecting agents are used, if the mixing ratio is incorrect or if the beds are not adequately cared for, damage can occur to the surface coating for which Völker is not liable.

Cleaning the hand controls

To avoid so-called "cross-contamination" between the occupant/patient and care personnel, the hand controls must be cleaned daily!

Remark 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

Remark 2: These guidelines may not be applicable in all cases. The propagation of electromagnetic variables is affected by the absorptions and reflections of buildings, objects and people.

The field strength of stationary transmitters, such as base stations of cordless telephones and mobile land radio, amateur radio stations, AM and FM radio and TV stations cannot be quantified in theory in advance accurately. To determine the electromagnetic environment in relation to a stationary transmitter, a study of the site should be considered. If the measured field strength at the site where the bed is used exceeds the conformity levels given above, the bed should be observed to ensure that it functions correctly. If unusual function characteristics are observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as a modified alignment or another location of the bed.

In the frequency range from 150 kHz to 80 MHz, the field strength should be less than 3 V/m.

Table 206 – Recommended protected distance between portable and mobile HF telecommunications equipment and

the bed – for devices and systems that are not life-sustaining (6.8.3.201 b))

The bed is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which HF disturbances are controlled. The customer or user of the bed can help to avoid electromagnetic disturbances by respecting the minimum distance between the portable and mobile HF telecommunications equipment (transmitters) and the bed. The recommended minimum distance d is dependent on the maximum power output of the communications equipment (see below).

Nominal output of the

transmitter

0.01 0.12 0.12 0.23

0.1 0.37 0.37 0.74

1 1.17 1.17 2.33

10 3.69 3.69 7.38

100 11.67 11.67 23.33

For transmitters whose maximum rated output is not specified in the table above, the recommended protected distance d in metres (m) can be calculated using the equation in the column that features P as the maximum power output of the transmitter in Watts (W) as defined by the transmitter manufacturer.

Remark 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

Remark 2: These guidelines may not be applicable in all cases. The propagation of electromagnetic variables is affected by the absorptions and reflections of buildings, objects and people.
