Additional Manufacturer Narrative

THE BED FRAME, BLOWER, MATTRESS, AND BATTERY BACKUP UNITS WERE TESTED, AND NO ISSUES WERE IDENTIFIED WITH ANY OF THE DEVICES. BASED ON THE OBSERVED DAMAGE, IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE BED FRAME DAMAGE MAY HAVE RESULTED FROM AN ELECTRICAL CORD BECOMING PINCHED WITHIN THE BED FRAME. HOWEVER, THIS COULD NOT BE CONFIRMED, AS NO DAMAGE WAS OBSERVED ON ANY OF THE ELECTRICAL CORDS DURING THE EVALUATION. FURTHER INFORMATION IS CONTAINED WITHIN COMPLAINT-(B)(4).
