1 BEFORE USING THE BED
WARNING<Falling off>g Be careful to prevent the patient from falling off the bed even when siderails are raised.

n The patient may fall through a gap between side-rails, or between a board and side-rail, resulting ininjury.
n The patient may bend forward over a side-rail and fall off the bed, resulting in injury.
n When a thick mattress is used, the effective height of the side-rails becomes lower. Be careful
because this makes it easier for the patient to roll over them and fall, which may result in injury.
n Be especially careful to check a patient who might act in unexpected ways or cannot maintain their
posture independently.

g When transferring a patient, raise the side-rails.
The patient may fall off the bed, resulting in injury.

g The side-rails should be operated by the nurse from outside the bed.

If the patient operates the side-rails from inside the bed, the side-rails may go down suddenly and thepatient may fall off the bed, resulting in injury.

g Do not sit on the side-rails, headboard, or footboard.
The patient could fall off the bed or fall down, or the
bed or side-rails could be damaged or deformed,
resulting in injury.

g When leaving the bed area or taking your eyes off the patient, check themattress deck angle, bed height, and the state of the side-rails and boards.
n If a physician, nurse, or attendant will leave the bed area or take their eyes off the patient, set the
mattress deck angle to zero (flat) and the bed height to the lowest position according to the conditionof the patient in case of falling off the bed.
n If a patient cannot maintain a posture independently or has difficulty in walking, raise all side-rails. If
you want to fill the gap between the Foot-end side-rail and footboard when using an extension frame,
use a side-rail spacer/Foot spacer (PC-5112/IC-A33321Q (accessory), see p. 83).

WARNING

Lowered staten Be careful to prevent a body part (especially the head or neck) fromentering a gap between the side-rail and mattress deck or mattress. If abody part is stuck in a gap, it may not be able to be pulled out, resulting
in injury. Be especially careful to check a patient who might act in
unexpected ways or cannot maintain their posture independently.
n The side-rails should be operated by the nurse fromoutside the bed. If the patient operates the side-rails
from inside the bed, the side-rails may go down
suddenly and the patient may fall off the bed, resulting
in injury.
n Do not let the patient lean against a side-rail while it israised. The patient may lose their balance and fall off
the bed, resulting in injury.
n When a thick mattress is used, the effective height of the side-rails
becomes lower. Be careful because this makes it easier for the patient
to roll over them and fall, which may result in injury.
n Do not hang your legs over a side-rail while it is lowered. The bed may
tip over, resulting in injury.
n When raising a side-rail, make sure that the lock is engaged. If the lockis not fully engaged, the side-rail may go down unexpectedly and thepatient may fall off the bed, resulting in injury.
n Be careful to prevent lines from getting caught. When operating a siderail, lines may get caught between the side-rail and mattress and bedamaged, resulting in injury.
n When adjusting the height or inclination angle with the side-rail lowered,
do not put your legs under the side-rail. They may get caught, resulting
in injury.
n When operating a side-rail, make sure that the patient’s hands or legs
have not entered a gap between the side-rail and mattress deck. Theymay get caught in the gap, resulting in injury.
n Do not put your fingers in the moving parts of a siderail.

1 BEFORE USING THE BED<Recharging the battery>Inserting the power plug of the bed into the outlet
starts recharging of the battery, and recharging willcomplete automatically after 24 hours. The battery
can be recharged regardless of whether the power ison or off.
When using the bed for the first time, recharge thebattery before use.
Note!

Power plug

Grounded outlet

n Normally use the bed with the powerplug of the bed inserted into the outlet
and the battery recharged.
n Repeated recharging after the battery
power is used up results in early degradation of maximum capacity and ashorter life span. After battery-powered operation of the bed, recharge thebattery when possible.
n If the indicator shows that the remaining power is low or insufficient (see p.
44) soon after starting bed operation, even though the recharge is completed, it is time to replace the battery.

Note!

<Handling the battery>g LifeThe battery life varies depending on the operating frequency and environment, and storage condition of
the battery. Some batteries reach the end of their life in 2 to 3 years and almost all batteries reach the endof their life in 5 years, regardless of whether or not they are used.
n If the indicator shows that the remaining power is low or insufficient (see p. 44) soonafter starting bed operation, even though the recharge is completed, it is time to replace thebattery.
n Check regularly whether the bed can be battery-operated or whether the battery replacement time has been reached. Replace a battery that has reached the replacement time.

g Operating environment
It is recommended to use the battery at around 25˚C. The performance of the battery varies depending on
the ambient temperature and deteriorates to 85% at 0˚C compared to the performance at 25˚C.
g Storage
The battery self-discharges slightly even when the battery is powered off. When storing the bed, recharge
the battery for 24 hours or more, disconnect the power plug of the bed, and power off the battery. This
reduces the impact of excessive discharge on the life. Note that it is recommended to store the bed at an
ambient temperature of 25˚C.
When storing the bed for a long period of time, recharge the battery for 24 hours or more once every 3months. If the battery is not recharged, the battery capacity may deteriorate or the battery may become
no longer rechargeable. Recharging the battery automatically turns the power supply on. When storing
the bed again, power off the battery.

2 FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONSBED EXIT ALARM (PA-H 631*, PA-H 633* only)g This function measures load changes on the bed with sensors built into the bed and notifies thestatus of a patient who may fall off or fall down.
g The following notification functions can be used with BED EXIT ALARM. BED EXIT ALARM causes
an alert when it detects the patient’s movement. Also a notification can be made to the nurse callsystem by connecting it to the nurse call wall plate with a nurse call relay unit (accessory) (“relayunit”) or a bed communication cable.
n MONITORING
n LEFT BED
n EDGE OF BED
n SIT-UP
Each function is set using the relay unit. For connecting to the nurse call system and details on handling,see “Connecting the bed communication cable” (see p. 48) or the instruction manual for the relay unit.

Note!

g If a power failure occurs, all bed functions including BED EXIT ALARM stop, so the patient status
cannot be notified by BED EXIT ALARM. If necessary, connect the power plug of the bed to an emergency power supply.
n This product is just an assisting device to detect out-of-bed and does not guarantee safety.
A false notification or absence of notification may occur depending on the motion or lying
position of the patient. We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any damages resulting
from an accident, etc.
n The bed communication cable and relay unit may not be suitable depending on the type ofnurse call system. For details, contact Paramount Bed (see p. 116) or your distributor.
n To use BED EXIT ALARM, you need to set the notification function settings (for the setting
procedure, see the instruction manual for the relay unit).
n Before using BED EXIT ALARM for the first time after the bed is installed, make sure that
notification is made correctly before use.
n If notification is not made or any other errors occur, stop using BED EXIT ALARM andcheck the bed and bed communication cable, or relay unit by referring to “1. Troubleshooting” on p. 93 to 96.
n If you turn the notification function on while the bed height is less than “+4 cm” from theminimum height, the bed rises to the “minimum height +4 cm.”53

WARNING

g Notification is not made during bed operation (e.g., head up, height adjustment) even if the patient gets out of the bed or sits up on the bed. Furthermore, getting into or out of the bed during bed operation may cause
the patient to fall off or fall over, resulting in injury. If you consider that thepatient may get in or out of the bed during bed operation, set Overall lockout or Patient lock-out (see p. 65).
g Before using BED EXIT ALARM, set the notification function properly (forthe setting procedure, see the instruction manual for the relay unit). If thesettings are not correct, detection may not work and notification may not be
made, and the patient may fall off or fall over, resulting in injury. Even when
the settings are correct, detection may not work and notification may not bemade in the following cases.
n If it takes 4 minutes or more for the patient to get out of the bed or sit up on the bed
n If the patient gets out of the bed or sits up on the bed after a heavy object (which weighs more thanhalf the patient’s weight) is placed on the bed
n If the patient who is lying at the foot end of the bed sits up (SIT-UP function)n If the patient sits up while placing his or her hand or elbow on the top of the head end of the bed (SITUP function)g When using BED EXIT ALARM, use it at a temperature between 15˚C and30˚C and humidity between 30% RH and 75% RH. The detection accuracy
may decrease, notification may not be made, and the patient may fall off
or fall over, resulting in injury.
g Do not place objects such as furniture and fixtures between the bed andfloor. Detection may not work and the patient may fall off or fall over, resulting in injury.

54

2 FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONSWARNINGg If the patient does not stay in bed without moving for 5 seconds or more
after returning to the bed, detection may not work, notification may not be
made, and the patient may fall off or fall over, resulting in injury.
g If the patient does not stay in bed without moving for 5 seconds or more
after bed operation, detection may not work, notification may not be made,and the patient may fall off or fall over, resulting in injury.
g Set the weight according to the weight of the patient. If the setting is notcorrect, detection may not work.

Note!

g This bed is designed for use on patients weighing equal to or more than
40 kg. Do not use BED EXIT ALARM on patients less than 40 kg.
<False notification>n If the notification functions are not set correctly, an accidental notification may be made.
n Notification may be made in the following cases. In such a case, turn off or pause notification.
• If a person other than the patient gets into or out of the bed• If the patient rolls over to the foot end of the bed• If an object of 3 kg or heavier is removed from the bed• If the board is detached from the bed• If the weight is applied to the footboard
n The larger the angle of the head section is, the higher is the possibility that the SIT-UP notification function will detect a slight movement such as rolling over and will make notification, even when the patient does not sit up.

55

<SIT-UP><EDGE OF BED><LEFT BED>

<SIT-UP>When the patient sits up in bed, notification is made through thenurse call system. The setting period can be selected from0 second, 1 second, and 3 seconds.
* If the patient sits down on the edge of the bed or gets out of the
bed within 4 minutes after sitting up, notification is made only
when the patient sits up to avoid repeated notifications. If it takes
4 minutes or more for the patient to sit down on the edge of the
bed or gets out of the bed after sitting up, notification is made. If
the patient sits up and then lays down in the bed again,
notification is made if the patient sits up again even within 4
minutes.
* If the patient turns over in bed and his or her body leaves the
bed or his or her feet touch the floor, it is determined that thepatient sat up on the edge of the bed or got out of the bed, andnotification is made, even though the patient did not sit up.
<EDGE OF BED>
When the patient sits down on the edge of the bed, notification ismade through the nurse call system.
* If the patient gets out of the bed within 4 minutes after sitting
down on the edge of the bed, notification is made only when thepatient sits down on the edge of the bed to avoid repeated
notifications. If the patient gets out of the bed after 4 minutes ormore have passed after sitting down on the edge of the bed,
notification is made. If the patient sits down on the edge of the
bed and then lays down in the bed again, notification is made if
the patient sits down on the edge of the bed again even within 4
minutes.
* If the patient gets out of the bed without sitting down on the edgeof the bed, notification is made.
<LEFT BED>
If the patient gets completely out of bed, notification is madethrough the nurse call system.
<MONITORING>
If the patient is out of bed for longer than the set period, notification
is made through the nurse call system. The setting period can beselected from 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 30
minutes.
* If the patient gets completely out of bed, notification is madethrough the nurse call system.

The bed is intended for use in doctor’s offices, clinics, exclusive medical facilities, independent surgery
centers, multiple treatment facilities, hospitals (except near high-frequency surgical equipment, and outside
RF shielded rooms for magnetic resonance images). The customers or users of the bed must ensure thatthe bed is always used in this environment.
Due to its emission characteristics, the bed is suitable for use in hospitals. If used in a home environment,
this device may not offer sufficient protection against radio frequency communication services.
It may be necessary for the user to take relaxation measures such as re-arranging or changing the directionof the device.
n If accessories, transducers, or cables other than those specified andsold by the manufacturers of the bed are used as replacement parts forinternal components, it may result in an increase in emission or adecline in immunity of the bed.
n Use portable RF communication devices (including antenna cables andperipheral devices such as external antennas) at a distance of at least
30 cm from all parts of the bed. Using the RF communication devices
within a distance of 30 cm may cause a decline in the performance ofthe bed.
n The bed cannot be used adjacent to another device or in a stacked
state. If the bed must be used adjacent to another device or in a stacked
state, make sure the bed operates appropriately at the location of use.

transmitters, an electromagnetic survey of the site should be considered. If the measured field strength in
the location in which bed is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, bed should beobserved to verify whether or not it is operating appropriately. If an abnormal operation is seen, takeadditional measures as needed, such as changing the location of use of the bed.
b. These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
