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
require on new care or hospital beds
based on your previous experiences.
You clearly had good reasons to choose
Völker care beds.
We promise you that Völker beds will
not disappoint you.
Not for nothing do Völker beds enjoy
a worldwide reputation as particularly
innovative medical aids. 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 the reduce
the load of daily care work.
Now, every care or hospital bed has
product features that are of practical
benefit to their users. However, as far as
we know, none of them offers the range
of advantages that a Völker bed does.
Völker beds not only look great, but
they also offer functions that can be
controlled or adjusted mechanically,
although most of them are controlled or
adjusted using electric motors or electronic components.
If you purchase 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.
We wish you every success with Völker
beds,
yours Völker GmbH

Notes | Designated purpose 1/2
Intended use
Völker bed models 3082 Vis-a-Vis and
3082 K Vis-a-Vis are beds for medical use and are intended for the laying
down and care of occupants/patients in
care institutions, hospitals and in suitable rooms in residential buildings.
The bed is intended for use by people
over the age of 12 or who are taller than
146 cm.
The bed's safe working load is 250 kg.
To calculate the max. occupant/patient weight, 20 kg for the weight of the
mattress and 45 kg for accessories as
well as the load borne by the accessories must be subtracted from the safe
working load in accordance with DIN EN
60601-2-52:2010 when using the bed in
application environments 1 and 2 (intensive and acute care).
If using the bed in application environments 3, 4 and 5 (long-term, home and
outpatient care), the values to be considered for the mattress are 20 kg and 15
kg for accessories as well as the load
borne by the accessories.
The maximum occupant/patient weight
can therefore be taken from the following table:
ModelSafe

None intended use
None intended use can be dangerous.
This includes, but is not limited to:
• Incorrectactuationofelectricalfunc-
tions and uncontrolled positioning
• Operation of the care 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

than ten 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 with a
vehicle
• Overloading of the bed beyond the
specified safe working load.
CAUTION If, in an emergency
situation, it is impossible to avoid
putting children under the age of
12 or people who are less than
146 cm tall in the bed, protective
covers must be placed on the side
rails. This also applies to the use
of the bed by weak or confused
patients.
The use of the bed for children
under the age of 8 is absolutely
forbidden.
WARNING The bed may not be
placed right next to or stacked up
with other equipment. If operation
near to or stacked up with other
equipment is necessary, 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 regulations
The bed must only be operated and
used in accordance with its designated
purpose, in line with the conditions of
the Medical Products Directive (MPG)
and approved legislation pursuant to
this, the generally-acknowledged rules
of technology and the stipulations of
occupational safety and accident protection 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 (Medical Products Directive).
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 hand over the hand 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
care beds in recent years. Völker has
addressed this topic by increasing
the "safe working load" for the beds.
However, not only the beds are exposed
to higher levels of strain, but also static
and also flooring. Therefore, we recommend that flooring in areas where the
beds are used which is designed for this
strain. These are floor coverings classified as at least class 32 or 33 in accordance with DIN EN 685 and properly
laid. These are floor coverings for areas
intended for public and industrial use
with moderate or heavy traffic.

Warning symbols
Information marked with this
symbol must be read and its
content strictly observed.
DANGER represents an imme-
diate threat of danger that can
cause serious physical injury or
death.
WARNING represents potentially
dangerous situations that can
lead to serious physical injury or
death.
CAUTION represents potentially
dangerous situations that can
cause slight physical injuries.
NOTE warns of potential damage
to objects or property.
Before first activation
Before the bed is put into action for the
first time, care personnel must read
these instructions for use in full and with
care.
Before the bed is activated for the first
time, care personnel must be instructed
in the handling of the bed using the instructions for use. The potential dangers
that can arise despite correct 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 good,
safe condition and that safe use is ensured (Functional check
32).
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 or be damaged.
Position of the bed
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 castors
raised.

Notes | General safety notes 2/5
Transporting the bed
CAUTION The bed is not de-
signed for transporting people.
When moving the bed, it must
always be ensured that the mains
connection cable does not touch
the ground and that the lying
surface is in a position as low as
possible.
The bed should only be moved
on a solid floor. Never attempt to
push it over obstacles of over 1
cm in height. The maximum angle of inclination of the floor must
not exceed 10°.
Securing the bed
CAUTION "Risk of accident"
If the bed is not being transported, the castors must always be
raised, since the bed may be required as a support for when the
occupant/patient stands up or lies
down. If the bed rolls away while
the castors are down, this can
lead to a serious fall. Once the
castors have been raised 35,
it must be checked that the bed is
actually securely parked, i.e. the
castors are completely raised.
The bed can be in a non-fullybraked status even after first activation or reactivation, and consequently it must be checked that
the castors are correctly raised.
One-sided load on the bed
When using the bed as a normal
clinic/care bed, the following applies:
NOTE In order to prevent one-sided
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).
CAUTION A maximum load of
80 kg on the lower leg section
is permissible when the bed is
in the fully extended Vis-a-Vis
position!

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 us-
ing side rails must be ascertained.
• The side rails may only be op-
erated by trained care personnel.
• Ensure that the side rails (or
parts thereof) are either fully
raised and locked in position or
completely lowered.
• It must be ensured that the
occupant/patient does not
come into contact with the side
rail elements when the electrical lying surface adjustment
mechanism is actuated. It is
also important to ensure that
no part of the body is sticking
out through the side rails.
• 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. In
addition, it is strongly recommended that side rail covers
are used.
• DANGER If these safety
measures 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. In children or people who are less than 146 cm
tall, non-observance of these
guidelines can lead to death!
WARNING "Danger of injury"
If the side rails are damaged, the
bed must not be used and must
be repaired.

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.
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 be subjected to
testing before use.
Use of lifting devices
WARNING "Risk of injury"
No lifting device must be fastened directly to the bed (patient
transport, repair).
The lifting devices specified are appliances that can be attached to the bed
for transport purposes. Patient lifters
can be used.
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. Do not use this bed in
a room where there is a risk of
explosion.
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 may cause the O
concentration to rise to such a
degree that there is an explosion
risk, then the equipment can be
used.
Rail spacer
When using the rail spacer, please read
the separate instructions for use for this
accessory. During technical checks, the
rail spacers 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
the bed can cause danger.
Maintenance and repair
Anyone responsible for carrying out
maintenance and repair work must
at least have taken part in a service
training by Völker, have read the safety
notes and the service manual and be
qualified in accordance with MPBetreibV
§§ 4 and 6.
After maintenance work or repairs have
been carried out, a Technical check
55 must be carried out on the affected
parts and/or functions. During this check,
it must be determined that the bed can
be used in accordance with the specifications without risk to occupants/pa-
48 of
tients, users or third parties.
The 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
interference
The beds in model series 3082 Vis-a-Vis
and 3082 K Vis-a-Vis satisfy the EMC
requirements in accordance with the law
on medical products (MPG). The basis
for testing is standard EN 60601-1-2.

DANGER The height of the
raised side rails above the mattress must always be greater
than or equal to 220 mm; otherwise the occupant/patient
may accidentally fall out of bed.
Please note that the height of the
mattress has a direct influence
on this.
≥220mm!
Use of securing systems
Securing systems such as belts or
straps should only be used exactly as
specified by the manufacturer.
If securing systems in the form of abdominal belts are used, then it must be
ensured that the side rails are completely raised. In this case, the gap in the
middle of the rails must be closed using
a rail spacer.
DANGER When using securing
systems and rail spacers, please
note the separate instructions for
use pertaining to these accessories.
If the patient is restrained with the
help of restraint holders, the lying
surfaces must never be adjusted
while the patient is restrained
and must always be in the lowest
position!
The lying surface adjustment
functions must be locked when a
patient is secured, and the hand
control must be kept out of the
occupant's/patient's reach!
Restraints may be fastened directly onto
beds built after 08/2009.
To do this, fasten the restraints on the
corresponding longitudinal section of the
lying surface frame. Make sure that the
restraint is passed between the mattress holder and the mattress.

On-time
The maximum on-time for the electromotive bed functions is specified on the
bed (type label
data sheet.
4 min/10 min means that each electromotive adjustment may be operated for
a maximum of 4 minutes followed by a
pause of 10 minutes (protection against
overheating).
NOTE Should the maximum ontime of 4 minutes be exceeded

Battery pack
The battery pack integrated into the
double drive has a charge capacity that
is equivalent in theory to a constant
operation of at least 15 lifting and lying
surface adjustments with a working load
of 250 kg.
If the bed is parked at its
NOTE
location and the mains plug is not
connected, this will cause the battery pack to discharge due to the
buffering of the electronic components!
Deep-discharged battery packs
can be damaged to the extent that
premature replacement is needed!
To increase the stand-by time, it
is recommended to activate the
reset button on the housing when
storing the bed and to disconnect
the bed from the mains. The bed
should not be stored for a period
longer than 6 months with a fully
charged battery pack without recharging it.
Appropriate and correct use of the
battery pack is essential for it to
have a long service life!
In order to guarantee electrical functionality at all times, the bed should be
connected to the mains as much as
possible.
Safety cut-out device
The bed is equipped with an electrical, self-resetting safety cut-out device
that prevents overloading of the motor
systems. In the event of very severe
overloading, the bed is automatically
switched off.

Operation | Side rails | General safety notes
WARNING All people whose duties
involve manoeuvring of the side
rails must have read and understood the following information:
• Duringactuationoftheback,
upper leg or lower leg section
adjustment, of the lift or of the
side rails, it must always be ensured that the occupant/patient
is not touching the side rails,
and that no part of his/her body
is sticking out through the side
rails.
• If the side rails are used for an
individual whose psychological condition necessitates their
use, it must be ensured that the
hand control is stored completely out of his/her reach or its
functions are completely locked.
In all cases, care must be taken
to ensure that entrapment risks
are minimized.
• Protective covers (cot side
pads) are available as an accessory for the side rails. These
provide additional protection
against injury from contact
with the side rails. The use
of these protective covers is
recommended for all persons
for whom the risk of injury from
unavoidable contact with the
side rails is very high. Even with
the covers, the care staff or occupant/patient must still take the
necessary care when operating
the bed.
• If the side rails are used, they
must always be either completely raised and securely
engaged, or completely lowered to the end stop. Because
of the risk of entrapment, they
must never be left in a position
where they are not completely
engaged.
• If the side rails are damaged,
there is a risk that the patient
will fall out of bed.

The nurse hand control has an integrated
LED that can assist you when extending
the bed lengthwise.
Furthermore, the light emitting diode
distinguishes between three different
simulations:
The LED flashes when a length extensi-
on button is pressed
green,
while the bed is extending in length.
The LED lights up when a length ex-
tension button is pressed
green, if the length extension of the bed
has finished and the bed is now in the
Normal or Vis-a-Vis initial position.
If the LED lights up red, this signals a
fault. Please refer to the fault table
61.
NOTE If the lying surface of the bed
is in a raised position and you press
the "Length extension out" button“
, the lying surface will first
move downwards.
Before the length extension begins,
however, the lying surface rises
again by about 5 cm and lowers
again afterwards. The measuring
movement is required technically
and serves for precisely calibrating
the height of the length extension.

Cleaning and disinfection 1/2
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.
Cleaning
Depending on the degree of soiling,
we recommend cleaning the bed with a
damp cloth or similar.
Wipe and spray disinfection
For wipe and spray disinfection, the
disinfecting agents featured in the VAH
(Verbund für angewandte Hygiene e.V.)
list dated 01.03.2011 can be used in in
their specified concentrations in Germany. They must be applied at the dilution
ratio specified by the relevant manufacturer's instructions for use. The list can
be obtained under ISBN Number
978-3-88681-106-9.
NOTE
Scouring agents, abrasive
sponges or other blunting agents
must not be used.
Organic solvents such as halogenated / aromatised hydrocarbons and ketones must not be
used.
The following instructions must be noted
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
given in the list. 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 detergent such as a soap or
detergent substance (leads to soap
failure).
Solvents are not permitted.
• There is a risk of fire or explosion
from alcoholic spray disinfectants
when these are used over large areas.
• They must not contain any corrosive
or irritant components.
• They must not contain any substanc-
es 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 (up to 5 deg
d).

Cleaning and disinfection 2/2
The specifications in the VAH list, as
well as the specifications we have
issued do not absolve the user of the
obligation to carry out his or her own
checks and investigations, 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.
If unsuitable washing and disinfect-
ing agents are used, if the mixing
ratio is incorrect or if there is inadequate care of the beds, damage
can occur to the surface coating for
which Völker GmbH is not liable.
WARNING "Risk of electric
shock / fire and functional
failure"
The bed must always be disconnected from the power supply
during cleaning and disinfection.
The plug and the socket of the
hand control are only protected
against spray when the control is
stowed and the appropriate cover
is in place.
Spray lances and automatic washing
systems
Cleaning and disinfection using spray
lances from high-pressure cleaning
equipment and in automatic bed washing systems is not permissible.

Staff training
Every person involved with maintenance
or servicing must at least
• have taken part in service training by
Völker
• havereadthesafetynotesand
• the service manual
and be qualified in accordance with
MPBetreibV §§ 4 and 6. To avoid errors
and ensure that our beds work properly,
these documents must always be accessible to service personnel.
Before commencing maintenance work,
the service manual and the instructions for use must be read in full by the
person responsible for carrying out the
servicing.
Safety notes
During maintenance and technical
checks, the following specifications
must be strictly observed:
• The room's electrical installa-
tions must satisfy current technical
requirements and the bed must be
used correctly.
• The castors must be retracted (bed
is fixed).
• The beds are not protected against
explosion and must therefore only
be maintained in an environment
free from flammable substances and
materials.
WARNING
any repair work, always disconnect
the mains plug and disconnect the
battery pack from the mains by
pressing the green reset button on
the engine housing.
WARNING Maintenance and
repair work should only be carried out after the bed has been
disinfected.
Before carrying out
WARNING Maintenance and
repair work should, in principle,
only be carried out on an unoccupied bed. The resident/patient
may also have to be transferred
to another bed before the work.
WARNING After maintenance
(repair) work is complete, always
check that the bed is functioning
correctly. It must be checked that
the bed can be used correctly
without risk to the occupant/patient or care personnel.
WARNING When working on the
open motor, it must be ensured
that there is no contact with the
power supply board for at least
20 minutes after disconnecting
it from the power supply and
the battery. The reason for this
is to allow self-discharge of the
smoothing capacitor, which would
represent a risk to persons.

a
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 stated above, the bed should be observed to ensure
that it functions correctly. If unusual features are observed, additional measures may be required, such as modified alignment
or a different location for the bed.
b
In the frequency range from 150 kHz to 80 MHz, the field strength should be less than 3 V/m.

Table 206 - Recommended protective 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 operation 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 portable and
mobile HF telecommunications equipment (transmitters) and the bed. The recommended minimum distance d is dependent
on the maximum power output of the communication device (see below).

For transmitters whose maximum rated output is not specified in the table above, the recommended protective 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 spread of electromagnetic parameters is influenced by
