Maintenance And Service - wissner-bosserhoff sentida 7-i Notice D'utilisation

9. Maintenance and service

In accordance with
▪ the applicable national regulations for medical devices and medical beds
▪ the current national health and safety regulations and national repetitive testing standards
for electrically operated equipment
operators of beds for medical use are required to ensure the safe condition of the medical
devices throughout the entire service life. This includes professional maintenance and safety
inspections at regular intervals.
The nursing home beds from wissner-bosserhoff GmbH are designed for a service life of 10 to
15 years. The beds require very little servicing. This is because, during product development,
care was taken to reduce that servicing work to a minimum, with low operating costs.
In daily use, however, experience shows that products are also sometimes handled carelessly,
and rough handling can also contribute to them aging more quickly and to the wear of certain
components, on which the manufacturer can have no direct influence.
The manufacturer assumes liability for the safety and reliability of the product only if it is reg-
ularly maintained and used in accordance with the operating, usage and safety notes in these
instructions for use.
If severe defects that cannot be rectified are detected in visual inspection, functional test-
ing, checks, measurement or during maintenance, the product must be taken out of use. In
addition to the comprehensive inspections by professional technicians, users (nursing staff,
family carers, etc.) should perform visual inspections and functional tests at shorter, regular
intervals. This is especially important when a bed is used for a new resident.
RECOMMENDATION: The safety inspection in accordance with IEC 62353 should take place
every 12 months in conjunction with mechanical maintenance.
Observe the following order of inspections and tests according to IEC 62353-VDE 0751-1:
1. Visual inspection
2. Electrical measurement
3. Functional test
