8 Advanta™ 2 Bed User Manual (157722 REV 2)
Vascular Position
The Vascular Position allows the caregiver
to place the patient’s legs above the level of
the patient’s sternum without placing the bed
in the Trendelenburg position.
To Activate— press the Foot Up control.
To Return to Flat Position— press the Foot
Down control.
Battery Control
The battery function is available only when the bed is not connected to AC power.
To Activate —press the Battery control. The battery indicator comes on. All bed
controls are available. Battery operation is automatically stopped 30 seconds after the
end of the last movement.
When the battery charge level is low and an electrical function is activated, an alarm will sound that
indicates the battery needs to be charged. The ongoing bed movement will be completed.
Plug the bed into an applicable power source to automatically charge the battery.
NOTE:
If the Lockouts were not activated when AC power was removed, and the lockout LEDs are on when the
bed is connected to AC power, there is a battery problem. Contact facility maintenance to correct the
problem.
WARNING:
The bed must remain connected to the mains power supply until the charge LED turns on
(recharge time is approximately 10 hours for a completely discharged battery). Failure to do so
could cause the bed to not operate when power is unavailable.
If the bed is connected to AC power: the indicator flashes to indicate a low battery, and that it is charging;
if the indicator is off, the battery is fully charged.
If the bed is disconnected from AC power: the indicator is off, and the battery is not turned on; if the
indicator is on and solid, the battery is turned on; if the indicator flashes, and an alarm sounds during bed
articulation, the battery is low.
Brake and Steer Control
WARNING:
Unless transporting the patient, always set the brakes when the bed is occupied. Reconfirm that
the brakes are set before any patient transfer. Failure to do so may cause injury or damage.
The brake and steer controls are located on the four corners of the bed frame. There are three positions:
Brake, Neutral, and Steer. The brake position keeps the bed from moving. The neutral position allows the
bed to be moved sideways. The steer position allows the bed to be moved in a straight line.
When the bed is plugged into AC power and the brakes are not set, an alarm sounds until the brakes are
set or AC power is removed.
