temperature management may not function properly.
If a bed for newborns or medical table has a tilting mechanism, bear in mind that the amount of
radiant heat that reaches the mattress surface varies depending on whether the bed or medical
table is horizontal or tilted.
When using a bed for newborns or medical table, the
height of the mattress surface must be between the specified heights indicated in the F-rail (recommended height:
66 to 86 cm between the floor and the mattress surface).
The size of the mattress must be 70 x 56 cm or less.
In addition, place the mattress in such a way that the
center of the mattress comes just under the center of
the heater.
The temperature on the mattress varies depending on the
distance between the floor and the mattress surface. Use
the table below as a guide for temperature control.

Installing Type Wall Mount
Install the unit in a location that meets the requirements described in the section 4-1 and that provides sufficient wall strength. Ask the builder to apply the strength specified in the Installation Manual to the anchor
bolts when the wall mount brackets are installed.
CAUTION
■■Installing Type Wall Mount
There is a range that can be heated by the canopy. Adjust the positions of the wall mount brackets so that the
canopy heater is positioned 90 to 110 cm above the mattress surface of the bed or the like used in your place.
Secure the brackets. Note that the temperature on the mattress varies depending on the distance between the
canopy heater and the mattress surface.
For details, see the Installation Manual.
PREPARATION
When using a bed for newborns or similar and its mattress surface height is higher than the specified
height, the temperature on the mattress may rise too high. If the mattress surface height is lower
than the specified one, the temperature on the mattress may not rise to the appropriate level. Use
a bed that provides the appropriate mattress height.
