Introduction At Hill-Rom, we understand that life-altering moments happen on a hospital bed. It’s where life begins. Where care is delivered. Where healing happens. All too often, costly complications can happen when life-altering health events occur. The Centrella® Smart+ bed is purposefully designed to best address your primary concerns and meet the changing needs of healthcare facilities.
The Centrella® Smart+ Bed : Because life-altering moments deserve elevated care. Delivering elevated care through: • Optimized patient safety • Enhanced patient satisfaction • Advanced caregiver-focused technology • Effective cost management

G E N E R A L B E D OV E R V I E W Audible and Visual Alerts The Centrella® bed provides caregivers with audible and visual indicators. • Single beep: Activity was performed successfully (i.e. when the bed reaches the lowest position). • Triple beep: Attention is needed; look at the message on the GCI® Touchscreen for more information (i.e. when you attempt to use a control that is locked-out). For a critical fault, a triple beep will sound every 10-seconds until the caregiver acknowledges the error on the touchscreen and follows the instructions.
Unable to Operate Function locked out. Remove lockout to operate. No
OK
A continuous tone will sound to indicate a serious bed malfunction and immediate attention is needed.
Verbal Safety Prompts (Optional Feature) Verbal safety prompts provide information to the patient and caregiver. • “Please don’t get up” • “Function not available“ • “The care team has been called“ • “The call light not connected” • “Brake not set” Verbal safety prompts (except for “Brake not set”) can be disabled through the touchscreen (see “Verbal Safety Prompts On/Off” on page 30).
Power Cords & Cord Holders The number of power cords varies depending on you bed model. • Grey power cord: Included with all beds, this cord supplies power to the bed and charges the frame’s battery backup. When plugged into power, the battery icon on the head rail will be solid green. Keep the battery charged and plug into power when possible. • White power cord: This cord powers the optional auxiliary accessory outlet located on the left side of the base frame, below the intermediate siderail.
5
G E N E R A L B E D OV E R V I E W Battery Backup When you unplug the grey power cord, a triple beep indicates the bed has lost power and the battery indicator blinks green indicating the bed is operating on battery. The battery backup operates most bed frame articulations on the caregiver control panel of the head rail. Battery backup operates: • All bed frame articulations except Boost® feature • On GCI Touchscreen: FlexAfoot™ powered bed length adjustment and <30° HOB Limit Battery backup does not operate: • Patient pendant • On GCI Touchscreen: Stand Assist, Chair, Bed Flat To activate, press and hold any frame articulation control until the articulation starts. There will be a 1-2 second delay before the control activates.
SideCom® Communication System (Optional Feature) The SideCom® Communication System provides a control for Nurse Call and entertainment features. The connector is located at the head-end of the bed below the headboard. If the SideCom® communication cable is not connected within 45-seconds of the bed being plugged into power, a triple beep will sound and a message will appear on the GCI Touchscreen. If equipped, a verbal safety prompt, “Call light not connected“ will sound. The triple beep and alert message will continue until the communication cable is connected, or if you turn off the reminder by pressing “Close” on the touchscreen. The Nurse Call controls are only visible and active when the bed is connected to a compatible nurse call system. If the Nurse Call control is not visible, but the bed communication cable is connected, contact your authorized maintenance personnel.

G E N E R A L B E D OV E R V I E W Line Managers Each head siderail has an integrated Line Manager on top of the siderail that helps keep lines such as IV lines and suction lines together and away from the articulating frame.
CPR Release Handle The CPR release handles are located on both sides of the upper frame, between the head and intermediate siderails. The CPR control quickly and safely lowers the head-of-bed to a flat position, even when unplugged. To activate, pull and hold until the head section is lowered to a flat position. If the legs are elevated, continue to hold until you hear a single beep confirming the bed is flat. NOTE: If equipped with a Centrella® max powered air surface: • It will go into Max Inflate for 60-minutes. • An alert will sound before 60-minutes has elapsed alerting the caregiver to reset the timer or the surface will return to Normal mode. • A countdown timer will show on touchscreen.
Patient Restraint Holders There are four restraint holders on each side of the bed to secure a variety of restraints such as a vest, lap belt, wrist or ankle restraints. We do not recommend using these holders for Foley or other drainage bags due to the bed’s low height, which allows for potential risk of bags touching the floor. WARNING: Restraints must be attached to the articulating section of the bed at the correct attachment points.

G E N E R A L B E D OV E R V I E W Foley/Drainage Bag Holders & Foley Position Limit There are two drainage bag holders at the foot-end of each side of the bed. It includes different height and length options for attachment to accommodate various drainage devices and help prevent them from touching the floor or being pulled. NOTES: • The bed length can be adjusted to accommodate drainage bags. • Follow your facility protocol for placement of drainage bags. Make sure drainage bags are placed so they will not touch the floor. The Foley Position Limit restricts the amount of foot-down motion during reverse Trendelenburg and chair positioning to reduce the risk of drainage bags touching the floor. To turn the Foley Position Limit on and off, press the Settings Menu control in the Navigation Menu of the home screen, then select Foley Limit. Press Off or On, and Accept to lock in the new setting. A confirmation screen will show that the Foley Position Limit is set and an indicator will show on the Home screen.

This does not take the mattress out of therapeutic pressure redistribution.
TV & Lighting Controls Some patient pendants also include controls for TV and lighting.
Patient Pendant Holder Locations On each side, there are three places to store the patient pendant - on the inside or outside of the head siderails, and on the top of the intermediate siderail. To store the patient pendant, align it above the holder, and slide it into place. During transport, always ensure the pendant is stored on the inside of the rail to get through doorways. There are two ways to stow the patient pendant on the intermediate rail: • Snap it on side to side, or • Slide it down onto the holder angled toward the patient, with the cable on the inside of the rail. Do not go straight down, it will not attach this way. To remove the patient pendant from any siderail, lift off the holder. NOTE: The pendant can be completely removed or moved from one side of the bed to the other to meet patient needs. Unscrew the two thumb screws, pull the plug out. Move to the outlet on the opposite side of the bed and securely screw in.
Nurse Call Control (Optional Feature) Nurse Call controls are located on the caregiver control panel, the patient control panel, patient pendant (optional) and Experience POD™ device (optional). When the Nurse Call control is activated, a signal is sent to the nurse’s station. Voice communication is provided through a speaker/ microphone on the inside of both head siderails. To activate, press a nurse call control. When activated, • Yellow indicator, single beep & verbal safety prompt (optional): confirmation to patient that the nurse call has been sent • Green indicator: communication line with nurse’s station is open NOTE: Nurse Call controls can never be turned off.

TRANSPORT Brake & Steer Controls The brake and steer controls include brake pedals above the foot-end casters and brake and steer pedals above the head-end casters. There are three positions - steer, neutral and brake.
Steer Position To activate steer, step down on the green head-end pedal or lift up on the orange foot-end pedal. Steer allows for straight travel down long hallways, especially when equipped with the optional 5th wheel.
Neutral Position To move the bed in any direction, move the pedal to the level position. This position helps with sideways movements in a room or a small enclosed area, or helps align the bed with another surface for patient transfers.
Brake Position To prevent the bed from moving, step down on the orange brake pedal until it is in the full downward position. Unless transporting a patient, always set the brakes when the bed is occupied. Brake Not Set
If equipped with verbal safety prompts, when you release the brake, the “Brake Not Set” will sound when the bed is connected to power, the indicator on the upper siderail panel will flash, and a message appears on the touchscreen.
Preparing for Transport 1. Raise all four siderails to the up and locked position. NOTE: A fully-charged battery for back-up frame controls is preferred. If the bed battery is low, put the bed into the desired transport position before unplugging the bed from power. 2. If necessary, shorten the length of the bed to get into elevators, and adjust the head section to make sure your view is not obstructed. 3. Unplug and secure all power cords, hoses and equipment that are to be transported with the bed. NOTE: If the Patient Helper, Experience POD™ device, or IV poles are installed, make sure they will not impact doorways or ceiling fixtures. 4. If the bed has push handles, lift the handles up, and lock them in position. Otherwise, use the push handles built-in to the headboard. 5. Activate Steer by stepping down on the Green pedal. For beds without IntelliDrive® Powered Transport, continue to transport the patient per your facility’s protocol. For beds with IntelliDrive® Powered Transport, refer to the “Transporting with IntelliDrive® Powered Transport” section.

TRANSPORT Transport with IntelliDrive® Powered Transport (Optional Feature) For beds equipped with IntelliDrive® Powered Transport, locate the Transport Pod on the right push handle at the head of the bed. Swivel it towards you and follow the steps shown on the Transport Pod. 1. Unplug the power cord and set the brake pedal to steer. 2. As the drive wheel lowers, the indicator on the Transport Pod flashes green. When the wheel has lowered completely, the indicator turns solid green and a single beep will sound. 3. Press down on one of the black enable switches on the underside of the blue push handles. Apply pressure to the handles to move the bed either forward or backward. NOTE: The bed will not move until pressure is applied to the handles. To move the bed, push or pull on the handles while pressing down on the enable switch. Applying pressure to the handles activates the motor and moves the bed in the direction of applied pressure. Decreasing pressure on the handles will slow the bed down to go onto elevators and through doorways. To deactivate the IntelliDrive® feature, set to Brake or Neutral, or plug the bed into power. NOTE: Remember if plugging into power - it is best to set brake first to avoid “Brake Not Set” verbal safety prompt.
Ergonomic Push Handles (Optional Feature) Our ergonomic push handles are designed to provide variable grip points for people of various heights. When not in transport, the push handles can be stowed away. NOTE: For beds without push handles, the headboard has a built-in rail that can be used to navigate during transport.
Corner Bumper with Equipment Sockets Located at each corner of the bed, there are four equipment sockets for attaching accessories such as IV poles and oxygen tank holders.
