Bed Mount
NOTE: The KeepSafe Essential comes with a standard bed bracket that

1. Use wire bracket (Cat. 8276) for head or footboard mounting (fig. 9).
2. Slide alarm onto bracket from top down until it is firmly in place
(fig. 10).
3. Choose location on head or footboard where patient cannot reach or
tamper with the alarm or connections.
4. Pull bracket wire away from alarm to create an opening wide enough
to fit the head or footboard. Slide bracket onto bed and push down
to ensure a snug fit (fig. 11). Make sure indicator lights are in clear view
of staff.
