CPR Release

The CPR Release allows the caregiver to save valuable time
in an emergency situation. When activated, the CPR Release
automatically lowers the head section of the bed to the flat
position, enabling emergency procedures to be performed
without unnecessary loss of time. After the head section is
down, the knee section also comes down to the flat position.
On beds equipped with an integrated air surface (ZoneAire®
Sleep Surface), the Auto Firm function engages automatically
when the CPR Release is activated. This provides a firm
surface that supports a CPR board.

The headboard of the Advanta™ Bed can be used as a CPR
board in emergencies.

Location: On both sides of the head section, near the

head end of the bed.

To Act ivate: Press the red button on either side of the

CPR Release handle, and pull the handle.
Release your hand as the head section
begins to come down.

WARNING:

If electrical power is lost, the head section still lowers,
but the Au to F irm function does not engage. The
optional air mattress maintains the same air pressure
it had before power loss. The effectiveness of the
CPR board may be reduced.

If electrical power is lost, the air mattress maintains the same level of pressure it had at the time of power loss.

If electrical power is lost, the knee section, if raised, cannot be lowered.

Emergency CPR Release Button

Emergency CPR Release Handle

Do not use the CPR Release to lower the head section in non-emergency situations. Use the Head Down controls
located on the siderail.

After activating the CPR Release, allow 30 seconds for the head motor to resume its normal operating position before
using the Head Up or Head Down cont rols.

Caregiver Controls

NOTE:

Resetting th e CPR

If the head section stops lifting, but the head motor runs for a brief amount of time; the CPR needs to be reset.

WARNING:

Unplug the bed from its power source before inserting the IV rod for manual operation. Unexpected resumption
of power can cause the IV rod to rotate and cause injury.

Location: Access hole at the head end of bed.
To Reset: Insert a Hill-Rom P2217 IV rod into the access

hole at the head end of bed until it engages the roll
pin in the end of the screw assembly.

• Push the IV rod hard enough to push the ejection
spring back from the roll pin, allowing the IV rod to
engage.

• Turn the IV rod clockwise until the screw assembly
reaches its mechanical stop (you should hear a
click).

The head section will not raise during this procedure.

WARNING:

Remove the IV rod before plugging the bed into an appropriate power source. Resumption of power can cause
the IV rod to rotate and cause injury.

• Rem ov e the IV rod from the head screw assembly.

• P lug the bed into its appropriate power source.

• Hold the CPR release in the activated position until the motor stops running. The bed is now operational.

Bed Functions

Caregiver Controls

Central Brake and Steer—Neutral

The Advanta™ Bed is equipped with standard bed function controls on the caregiver side of each head end siderail,
and at the footboard control panel. These controls operate all of the motor functions of the bed.

Bed Up/Bed Down (Hi-Lo)

The Bed Up/Bed Down controls allow you to raise or lower the bed 13.25" (33.65 cm). The low position is for
general use and to assist with patient egress, while the high position is used for patient examination s.

Location: Outside left siderail, outside right siderail, footboard control panel.

To Act ivate: Press and hold the Bed Up k ey to raise the bed.

Press and hold the Bed Down key to lower the bed.

WARNING:

Leave the bed in the low position when the patient is unattended. This can reduce the possibility of
patient falls and the severity of any resultant injuries.

The Bed Not Down indicator illuminates when the bed is not in the lowest position.

Caregiver Controls

NOTE:

NOTE:

NOTE:

Head Se ction

The Head Up/Head Down controls enable you to raise or
lower the head section of the bed. The head section of the
bed can be raised to any desired angle of inclination up to
65°. Using the head angle indicator (see “Head Angle
Indicator” on page 27), you can raise or lower the head
section to specific desired angles.

Location: Outside left siderail, outside right siderail;

left patient siderail, right patient siderail.

To Act ivate: Press and hold the Head Up key to raise

the head section of the bed.
Press and hold the Head Down key to lower
the head section of the bed.

Head Angle Indicators, located on the caregiver sides of the head end siderails, display the
amount of head section angle in degrees.

For the caregiver’s convenience, the automatic contour function is only activated from the
patient siderail controls.

Advanta™ Bed with Head Sect ion Raised

When the Head Up control is activated from the patient siderail controls, the automatic contour function is activated.
This raises the knee section automatically up to 15° when the Head Up function is activated. The automatic contour
function helps keep the patient from sliding towards the foot end of the bed. This function is not activated from the
caregiver controls, but is accessible to caregivers by using the patient siderail controls. Alternatively, the caregiver can
simultaneously press the head up and knee up controls.

CAUTION:

Do not manually lift or lower the head section with the CPR release handle. If you do, the head section will not
elevate properly until it is reset. Damage to the bed can occur when the head section is lifted with the CPR
release handle.

If you manually raise or lower the head section while holding the CPR release in the activated position, the head
section may not operate until you reset the CPR, refer to “Resetting the CPR” on page 7.

If the head section needs to be manually lifted or lowered, refer to “Manual Operation.” on page 34.

Knee Section

The Knee Up/Knee Down controls allow you to raise or lower the knee section of the bed to the
desired angle of inclination, up to 35°.

Location: Outside left siderail, outside right siderail;

left patient siderail, right patient siderail.

To Act ivate: Press and hold the Knee Up key to raise the knee section of the bed.

Press and hold the Knee Down key to lower the knee section of the bed.

Location: Footboard control panel.

To Act ivate: Press and hold the Trend key to place the bed into

the Trendelenburg position.
Press and hold the Reverse Tren d key to place the
bed into the Reverse Trendelenburg position.

A Trendelenburg Angle Indicator located on the footboard control
