SAFETY
ATTENTION: Important Safety Disclaimers
Read all instructions before using
your adjustable base. Save these instructions.
WARNING
Always unplug the base from electrical outlet before servicing any part of
the base. Unplug the base before cleaning. To safely disconnect, ensure
base is in a flat position with all motors off.
TRENDELENBURG FUNCTIONALITY: This adjustable bed is equipped with the
unique Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg position. The Trendelenburg position
is when a person is placed on an incline where the head is in a lower position than the
feet. A reversed Trendelenburg position is when a person is placed on an incline where
the feet are in a lower position than the head. Be aware that Trendelenburg positions
can have an effect on people’s organs, blood circulation and airflow ( among other
things) and should only be used under direct instruction & consultation with medical
professional. Avante Australia Pty Ltd takes no responsibility for misuses of these posi-
tions.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SHOCK, FIRE OR INJURY: For optimal safety and
operation, plug the bed base into a surge protector (not included). Ensure to always un-
plug the base from the electrical outlet before servicing or cleaning any part of the base.
Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces. Discontinue use of the bed base and
contact a qualified service centre if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, or it has been dropped into water. Only use this bed base for its intended use
as described in this manual. Do not use accessories/ attachments that are not recom-
mended by the manufacturer. Improper connection of the equipment can result in the
risk of electrical shock, electrical fire or fault if the plug does not fit your outlet. Contact
a qualified electrician to install a suitable outlet.
PETS AND CHILDREN: Dispose of all packing materials immediately after opening
as it may pose a risk to small children and pets. To avoid injury, it is not advised to al-
low children and small pets to play under the bed. Children should not operate the bed
base without adult supervision.

SAFETY
• To reduce the risk of falls on height adjustable bases, the base should
always be in its lowest position for sleeping and resting. The high posi-
tion should only be used for carer’s access to the user, ease of entry
and exit of bed for the user and ease of making the bed.
• A minimum of 2 able and fit adults should be used when lifting or
moving the beds. It is recommended to use trolleys or other lifting/
moving devices where possible.
• Careless use of naked flames, cigarettes or other heat sources could set
fire to this product.
• Do not operate whilst any person is under the base whilst raising/
lowering or adjusting the bed.
• Care should be taken that no body parts are in or near the adjustable
frame while operating.
• Ensure the cabling of the bed is free from the mechanism.
• Don’t run over electrical cables when moving the bed.
• Do not manipulate or conduct electrical maintenance on the motors or
any of the beds electrical components or cables. Any electrical work
must be facilitated by a qualified tradesperson.
