Preventive Maintenance
WARNING:
Only facility-authorized personnel should perform preventive maintenance on the Progressa™
Bed. Preventive maintenance performed by unauthorized personnel could cause injury or
equipment damage.
The Progressa™ Bed requires an effective maintenance program. We recommend that you perform
bi-annual preventive maintenance (PM) and testing for Joint Commission certification. PM and testing
not only meet Joint Commission requirements but can help support a long, operative life for the
Progressa™ Bed. PM will minimize downtime due to excessive wear. For the preventive maintenance
schedule, refer to the Progressa™ Bed Service Manual (171748).
Perform annual preventive maintenance procedures to make sure all bed components are functioning
as originally designed. Pay particular attention to safety features, including but not limited to:
• Siderail latching mechanisms
• Siderail dampers for oil leaks
• Caster braking systems
• Electrical system components
• Electrical power cords for fraying, damage, and proper grounding
• All controls return to off or neutral position when released
• Controls or cabling entanglement in system mechanisms or siderails
• Proper operation of the lockout controls
• Integrity of sleep surface ticking
Main Battery
Replace the battery if any of these conditions exist (refer to the Progressa™ Bed Service Manual
(171748):
• The battery indicator does not come on within 3 minutes of bed connection to AC mains.
• The battery indicator does not increase the number of illuminated LEDs within 12 hours of bed
connection to AC mains.
IntelliDrive® Transport System Batteries
Replace the batteries if the IntelliDrive® Transport System automatically shuts down power before the
final battery charge indication LED flashes (refer to the Progressa™ Bed Service Manual (171748)).
Press the blue button on the end of the drive box to disable the battery if the bed will be stored for an
extended period of time.
After replacing the batteries, charge the batteries a minimum of 20 hours before use.
Follow instructions on the batteries for proper disposal or recycling.
Troubleshooting
WARNING:
Only facility-authorized personnel should troubleshoot the Progressa™ Bed. Troubleshooting by
unauthorized personnel could cause injury or equipment damage.
Always check the battery charge status on the siderail. The bed may not be functioning due to the
battery being drained, and the bed needing to be plugged into its appropriate power source.
