IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNING INFORMATION
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, trans-
fer, 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 mainte-
nance on the bed.
DO NOT open assemblies such as the Actuators, Hand
Control, or Control Box. If unauthorized personnel
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.
When using nasal- or masked-type administering
equipment, all oxygen or air tubing MUST BE ROUTED
AND SECURED PROPERLY to ensure that the tubing
does not become entangled and eventually severed
during the normal operation of the bed.
The bed should ALWAYS be left in its lowest position
when unattended to reduce the risk of injury. If patient/
resident is ambulatory, leave at chair height.
Keep all moving parts free of obstructions (i.e. blankets/
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 on the raised head or foot sections
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).
It has a water-resistance rating of IPX4 and IS NOT
to be power-washed or submersed.
CLEANING - USE ONLY WATER AND DETERGENT
BASED PRODUCTS to clean the bed. DO NOT USE
any Harsh Chemicals or Products containing Ammonium
Chloride or Isopropyl Alcohol.

Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)

equipment in the area around such equipment. If RFI causes
erratic behavior, shut the bed off immediately. Leave it off
while the transmission is in progress.
