18 Progressa® Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 9)
StayInPlace™ Feature
Developed by Hill-Rom’s ergonomic research labs, the optional StayInPlace™ advanced articulation
technology mimics the natural movement of the patient that occurs while transitioning between the
supine and upright positions. The StayInPlace™ Feature helps keep patients optimally positioned to
minimize migration toward the foot end of the bed as the head of bed is raised.
KNEE UP/DOWN
The caregiver can raise or lower the knee section by using the Knee Up/Down controls. To
lock out a control, refer to
“Lockout Controls” on page 16.
To Activate
• Knee Up—Press and hold the Knee control to raise the knee section.
• Knee Down—Press and hold the Knee control to lower the knee section.
The Auto Contour™ feature does not change the head angle when only using the Knee Up/Down
controls.
FOOT ELEVATE (FOOT UP/DOWN)

from horizontal.
