Bed Frame Features
Progressa+ Bed Instructions for Use (216321 REV 2) 77
For inclines or thresholds, approach them as you move forward or backwards, rather than sideways.
To help prevent overbalance or collision with hidden objects or people, do not make sharp turns at
corners and do not turn the bed at high speeds.
After Transport
1. Put the bed in the intended location.
2. Set the brakes.
3. Stow the transport handles or IntelliDrive Transport System handles.
4. Connect the power cord, auxiliary outlet power cord, and communication cable (as applicable).
5. Return IV poles to correct working height.
IntelliDrive Transport System (Power Transport)
5. Unplug and store the power cord, auxiliary outlet (if
applicable), and communication cable on the storage hook at
the head-end of the bed.
6. Put the bed in Steer (step down on the green pedal until it
stops) or Neutral position.
7. Make sure the casters are in the trailing position.
8. Use the transport handles or IntelliDrive Transport System to
move the bed.
The IntelliDrive Transport System is a permanently attached
powered drive mechanism built into the bed. This mechanism
deploys or stows as a function of the position of the brake/steer
pedal and AC power availability. It is activated by applying
pressure to the transport handles located at the head end of the
bed. This allows the caregiver to propel the Progressa+ Bed
during patient transport with minimal applied force. The label
between the handles and on the bed frame shows the battery
charge and the correct way to use the system.
