Bed Frame Features
Hillrom Progressa ICU Hospital Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 15) 57
The Point-of-Care Brake and Steer System pedals are located: above the foot-end casters (brake), the
sides of the bed (steer), and at the head-end of the bed (brake and steer). At the head-end of the bed,
the brake pedal is on the left, and the steer pedal is on the right.
• Use the steer mode to help move the bed in a straight line and maneuver through hallways.
• Use the brake feature to keep the bed from moving.
• Use the neutral position to move the bed sideways in a room or small enclosed area.
There are three steer systems available on the bed: Corner Steer, 5
th
Wheel, and IntelliDrive Transport
System.
To Activate
Corner Steer: The left foot-end caster locks in-line ready for system movements.
5th Wheel: When the brake and steer pedal is placed in steer, the front casters are not locked into steer
mode. All four casters on the bed are put into the neutral position. This allows the bed to pivot on the
5th wheel. Pivoting on the 5th wheel, allows for tighter turns, and enhanced ease of steering.
IntelliDrive Transport System: Steer mechanism operates as above in 5th wheel only with a power
drive wheel.
When the bed is connected to AC power and the brakes are not set, an alert sounds and a message
shows on the GCI screen. When AC power is removed, the alert will stop and the GCI screen will turn off.

make sure that the brake
function is fully engaged.
Neutral Position—Move the
brake or steer pedal to the level
position.

any direction.
Steer (green pedal)—Step down
on the green steer pedal until it
stops.
The left foot-end caster locks in-
line.
