WARNING!
Safety aspects regarding combination of side rails
and mattresses:
–
In order to obtain the highest possible safety level,
when using the bed in combination with side rails, it
is important to respect the minimum and maximum
measures for mattresses stated in the table.
–
To mitigate the possibility of the user crawling over the
top of the side rail, with the risk of severe injury due
to e.g. falling, a minimum vertical distance of 22 cm
between the top of the mattress and the top of the
side rail are to be respected. The maximum mattress
height in combination with a given side rail is stated
in the table.
–
To prevent head entrapment between the inside
surface of the side rail and the mattress, with the risk
of e.g. suffocation, a safety maximum space has to be
respected. When especially very thick mattresses or
soft mattresses (low density) or a combination of these
it is important to focus on this risk. The minimum
width (and length) of mattresses in combination with a
given side rail is stated in the table.
