14 Progressa™ Bed User Manual (171528 REV 1)
Information Indicators
The Information Indicators provide the caregiver with visual indications about: Audible Indicators,
Battery Status, Service Required, Hip Position Locator, and head section angle.
Audible Indicators
A single beep will sound when an activity is successful.
A triple beep will sound when there is an error or caregiver attention is needed. A message will appear
on the GCI for further instructions.
Bed Battery Power
Charged - The Charged indicator comes on when the battery
is charged.
NOTE:
If the bed is unplugged press any function to activate
the battery power status.
Low - The Low indicator flashes when the battery is low. An
intermittent tone sounds every two minutes when the battery reaches low condition and AC is
unplugged.
Off - If the battery is too low to operate the bed.
CAUTION:
Although a fully-charged battery is preferred, transport may be done when the battery charge is
low. The bed should be reconnected to AC power as soon as possible.
If the Battery Indicator changes from Charged to Low consistently within four hours of being
disconnected from AC power, the battery should be replaced.
While on battery power, the following will happen:
• All bed articulations will operate
• Integrated surfaces will remain inflated, but will not adjust pressures
• The GCI will not display
Service Required
The Service required indicator flashes when the bed detects a malfunction. Contact the
facility maintenance department for assistance.
Hip Position Locator
A hip position label appears on the intermediate siderails to indicate
the correct position of the patient's hips while on the bed. The labels
are on the top of the intermediate siderail just above the caregiver
controls.
Proper placement of the patient increases the effectiveness of the
Shearless Pivot® Patient Position Mechanism and StayInPlace™
Patient Position Mechanism. These minimize migration of the patient to the foot end of the bed when
you raise the head section.
