Specifications Chapter 1: Introduction CPR Release (Optional on P8400 models) The head section can be mechanized for emergency lowering. A releasing mechanism is included for rapid lowering. The release mechanism requires positive (intentional) action for release. Knee Section Inclination The bed is mechanized such that the occupant may elevate the knee section by voluntary selection of a finger touch activator.
Specifications Chapter 1: Introduction The caster braking system is activated by a foot pedal located on either side, to allow single foot operation to lock two casters (wheels and swivels). Activation of the steer system locks the swivel on one caster (steer lock) to allow for easy steering of the bed.

Specifications Chapter 1: Introduction Siderails The bed has two sectionalized (half length) head siderails as standard equipment. The siderails retract and are storable within the confining limits of the sleep surface frame. Each sectionalized head siderail contains patient (head and knee) controls and a hilow control.
UL approved hospital grade for this application. Model Identification Below are the model identifications for the Retractable bed. Table 1-2.

The system operates in two modes, comfort and prevention. The DynamicAire Sleep Surface is non-reversible and easy to remove. Its life expectancy is five years or more, based on Hill-Rom’s recommended operating and cleaning procedures.
HPL decorator panel for color matching. CPR Release The CPR release is an optional feature on P8400 model beds and is standard on P8500 models. Beds with the Instant CPR feature have one CPR release handle located on each side at the head end of the head section.
“Cranking Procedure For Manual Operation of Bed (When Electric Power is Not Available)” on page 1-26. NOTE: P8400 and P8500 beds with CPR cannot be manually cranked to raise the head section when no electrical power is available. Enviro-Care Compatibility The Retractable beds are fully compatible with Enviro-Care if they have the model P284B-33 cane bumpers attached to the base section of the bed.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage. You can raise or lower the bed using a Hill-Rom P2217 IV rod as a crank. Access the head screw assembly (A) from the head end of the bed (see figure 1-7 on page 1-22).
Depress the CPR button, and pull out on the handle. Manually raise or lower the head section to the desired position. Release the CPR handle (see figure 1-8 on page 1-23). Figure 1-8. Head Function—P8400 Beds With CPR NOTE: P8400 model is shown.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage. You can raise or lower the bed using the Hill-Rom P2217 IV rod as a crank. Access the hilow screw assembly (A) from the foot end of the bed (see figure 1-9 on page 1-24).
General Operation Chapter 1: Introduction Knee Function You can manually flatten or elevate the knee section of the bed. However, there is no manual crank procedure. To flatten the knee section, lift the knee section, and pull up on handle (A) at the same time.
1. Unplug the bed from its power source. 2. Extend and insert the Hill-Rom P2217 IV rod through the access hole in the head end channel until it engages the roll pin in the end of the screw assembly.
Safety Tips Chapter 1: Introduction Safety Tips WARNING: Establish policies and procedures to train and educate personnel on the hazards associated with electric beds. It is not advisable or necessary for personnel to have their entire body below the sleep surface and within the confines of the bed.
Page 43
Safety Tips Chapter 1: Introduction WARNING: Only qualified service personnel should do troubleshooting on the Retractable bed. Before beginning any troubleshooting on the Retractable bed, be sure that you have read and understand the information in the troubleshooting section. Troubleshooting by unauthorized personnel could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Page 44
Safety Tips Chapter 1: Introduction CAUTION: Do not lower the foot section from the folded up position with the knee section down and the motor cover removed. Severe damage to the bed can occur. CAUTION: Ensure the roller bearings do not get degreased during the cleaning process.
Hill-Rom offers different siderail accessories for these needs. See the section “Accessories” on page 7-4. Siderails are intended as a reminder, not a patient restraint device. Hill-Rom recommends the appropriate medical personnel determine the level of restraint necessary to ensure a patient will remain safely in bed.
Safety Tips Chapter 1: Introduction 1. Develop guidelines for all high profile patients and indicate: – Which patients need to be restrained and the appropriate restraint to utilize – The proper method to monitor the patient, restrained or not, including time interval, visual check of restraint, etc.
Safety Tips Chapter 1: Introduction fact that water mattresses are subject to rupture, which would allow large amounts of water to come into contact with the electrical components of the bed. We feel the possibility of rupture to be a serious problem for which the hospital would not want to be responsible.
Perform the Function Checks to isolate or identify a problem and to verify repair after completing each corrective action (replacing or adjusting a part, seating a connector, etc.). If troubleshooting procedures do not isolate the problem, call Hill-Rom Technical Support at (800) 445-3720 for assistance. WARNING: Only qualified service personnel should do troubleshooting on the Retractable bed.

Electrical Description Chapter 3: Theory of Operation Electrical Description The electrical power system is mechanically insulated from the metal parts of the bed. No additional electrical components, such as isolation transformers, are required to make this bed meet applicable electrical codes. The insulation materials are of the type that will not deteriorate to an unsafe level over an 18 year period with normal use.
The hilow and head motors have manual crank capability to allow operation in the event of power failure on P8400 models without the CPR release only. The head has a release mechanism to permit flattening of this section of the sleeping surface on P8500 models and P8400 models with the CPR release only.
Electrical Description Chapter 3: Theory of Operation Thermal Resets Thermals are an integrated part of the motors, protecting them in the event that an overload condition occurs. They stop the motor automatically if it heats up to a certain temperature. The motor will not run again until the thermal is reset. All beds have automatic reset thermals.
Electrical Description Chapter 3: Theory of Operation Patient Controls Patient operation of the various functions of this bed is accomplished by means of low voltage finger touch switches located in a convenient fixed position at both sides of the bed. These patient controls are affixed with the movable head section to give easy access as well as visual contact with the head and knee operating button, irrespective of the position of the head section elevation.

Cleaning and Care Chapter 6: General Procedures Cleaning and Care WARNING: Unplug the bed from its power source during service or cleaning. Refer to the service manual or in-service manual for additional precautions. Steam Cleaning Do not use any steam cleaning device on the Retractable bed. The excessive moisture involved can damage mechanisms and components in the Retractable bed.
Lubrication Requirements Chapter 6: General Procedures Lubrication Requirements Hill-Rom uses oilite bearings and bushings in several places throughout the Retractable bed. Oilite bearings and bushings have pores that retain oil giving them a self-lubricating quality. This self-lubricating quality is neutralized if you use any lubricant containing silicone on them or anywhere else on the bed.
Preventive Maintenance Chapter 6: General Procedures Preventive Maintenance The Retractable bed must have an effective maintenance program. We recommend that you perform preventive maintenance and testing for Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) annually. This not only meets JCAHO requirements, but will help to ensure a long and productive life for the Retractable bed.
Run the hilow function to the upper and lower limits to ensure proper function of the limit switches. Some vin- tage P8400 beds are equipped with a spherical spacer to prevent the bed from crashing during operation. Inspect the spacer for cracks, wear, etc. Replace if necessary.
Page 332
Preventive Maintenance Chapter 6: General Procedures Function Procedure Motor capacitors Check the capacitors to make sure they are not weak or defective. Replace if required. CPR release Test the CPR release for proper operation. Night light Check to make sure the night light functions properly. Adjust the sensitivity if required.
