INTRODUCTION
The Centrella® Smart+ Bed is a patient support platform that helps improve patient safety and
satisfaction.
This manual contains information necessary for the normal operation of the Centrella® Smart+ Bed
and Centrella® Mattresses from Hill-Rom. Before you operate the bed, make sure that you read and
understand in detail the contents of this manual. It is important that you read and strictly obey the
aspects of safety contained in this manual.
Any reference to a side of the bed is from the patient’s view lying in the bed on his or her back.
The bed is equipped with a scale intended to weigh the patient in the bed.

of the upper frame at the head end of the bed.
The letter that follows P7900 identifies the bed revision.
