72 Progressa™ Bed User Manual (171528 REV 1)
CAUTION:
This device meets all requirements for electromagnetic compatibility per IEC 60601-1-2. It is
unlikely that the user will encounter problems with this device because of inadequate
electromagnetic immunity. However, electromagnetic immunity is always relative, and standards
are based on anticipated environments of usage. If the user notes unusual device behavior,
particularly if such behavior is intermittent and associated with nearby usage of radio or TV
transmitters, cell phones, or electro-surgical equipment, this could be an indication of
electromagnetic-interference. If such behavior occurs, the user should try moving the interfering
equipment further from this device.
Policies and procedures must be established to train and educate your staff on the risks associated
with electric equipment. It is never prudent or necessary for personnel to place any part of their body
under or between moving parts of the bed. Whenever a bed is being cleaned or serviced, it should be
unplugged from its power source, and the lockouts should be activated to keep the bed from
accidentally operating due to the battery backup. Refer to the Progressa™ Bed Service Manual
(171748).

WARNING:
Only use authorized replacement parts from Hill-Rom. Injury or equipment damage could occur.

Operating Bed/Surface Precautions
WARNING:
Do not operate the bed in the presence of flammable gas or vapors. Doing so could cause injury or
equipment damage.
WARNING:
Use oxygen administering equipment of the nasal, mask, or ventilator type only. Do not use the
bed with oxygen tents or in oxygen rich environments. Doing so could cause injury or equipment
damage.
WARNING:
Make sure hands, arms, legs, and feet are not under the bed or between sleep deck sections as
they move. Injury could occur.
WARNING:
Make sure you position tubes, lines, and linens away from moving parts. Failure to do so could
cause patient injury.
CAUTION:
The bed shall only be used with certain hoists, because of the limited space underneath the
medical bed.
