Alternately press Head up and Trendelenburg if you wish to adjust the head of bed angle with respect to

FLEXAFOOT FEATURE (FOOT EXTEND/RETRACT)
The length of the bed can be adjusted using the extend or retract controls. This feature allows the
Progressa+ Bed to be customized to the patient's height. The foot section can be retracted 10" (25 cm).
To lock out a control, refer to “Lockout Controls” on page 17.
Make sure that the footboard is approximately 1-2" (25-51 mm) from the patient’s heels.
Warning—Do not use ankle restraints when you activate this feature; injury to the patient may occur.
TRENDELENBURG OR REVERSE TRENDELENBURG
The Progressa+ Bed is capable of 13° Trendelenburg. Reverse Trendelenburg can achieve 18° (beds
without Chair Egress) or 20° (beds with Chair Egress). The powered Trendelenburg and Reverse
Trendelenburg controls can be activated at any bed height.
Retract the foot section to achieve full Reverse Trendelenburg.
Warning—Trendelenburg/Reverse Trendelenburg may cause linens, drainage bags, and other
equipment to come in contact with the floor. Follow facility protocol if they touch the floor. Injury could
occur.
Caution—While articulating in the Trendelenburg position, make sure there is adequate headwall
clearance. Equipment damage may occur.
To extend the length of the bed—press and hold the Foot Extend control to extend the
foot section.
To shorten the length of the bed—press and hold the Foot Retract control to retract the
foot section.
Trendelenburg—press and hold the Trendelenburg control until the foot end of the bed
raises relative to the head-end to the desired angle.
Reverse Trendelenburg—press and hold the Reverse Trendelenburg control until the
head of the bed raises relative to the foot end to the desired angle.
