SUPPORTWarnings Regarding the Side Rails

Each of the government agencies released warnings pertaining to accidents with care beds. In response, the Safety Promotion Council for Medical and Home Care Bed distributed the “Safety Pamphlet: The Dangers of Care Beds!”, and are encouraging users to confirm whether or not there are dangerous gaps in their beds.

We ask that customers using our beds see the “Additional Information Regarding Gap Accidents” below and check the safety of your bed.

• 「“Additional Information Regarding Gap Accidents, No. 1”」
• (October 2010, Previously released safety measures are also shown here)
• 「“Additional Information Regarding Gap Accidents, No. 2”」
• (April 2011, See for information regarding safety covers to prevent arms from getting caught and side rails as a countermeasure for gaps)

Using the former bed grip model (PZR-K900), which were sold until October 2006, in combination with the Ultilet Series or Miolet Series will result in a gap large enough for the foot to get caught between the swinging section and the mattress and may be difficult to release the foot. If left for a prolonged time, there is the possibility of internal bleeding in the toes or thighs. Please be extra careful.

• Safety Countermeasures (3) for the Former Bed Grip Model (Former Name: Assistance Bar)
