SAFETY
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SHOCK, BURNS, FIRE OR INJURY
For optimal safety and operation, plug bed base into a surge protector (not
included). The bed base should only be plugged directly into a wall outlet or surge
protector (strongly recommended). Always unplug the base from the electrical
outlet before servicing any part of the base. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
heated surfaces. Never operate the base when the air openings are blocked. Keep
air openings free of lint, hair and the like. Do not drop or insert any object into any
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 recommended by the manufacturer. Close
supervision is required when the bed base is used by or near children, convalescents,
disabled persons or pets. Improper connection of the equipment can result in the
void the electrical portion of your warranty.
PETS AND CHILDREN
Immediately dispose of all packing materials as it may pose a smothering risk
to small children and pets. To avoid injury, it is not advised to allow children and
small pets to play on or under the bed. Children should not operate the bed
base without adult supervision.
PACEMAKERS
Some products contain Neodymium MAGNETS, which may interfere with devices
It is STRONGLY recommended that owners of such medical devices consult
their physician prior to using products that contain Neodymium MAGNETS. It is
also possible that some pacemakers may falsely interpret the optional massage
feature vibrations as movement/exercise. This is a common occurrence with any
Please consult your physician before using the massage feature.
Attention: Important Safety Disclaimers
Read all instructions before using your adjustable base. Save these instructions.
safety precautions and usage statements
WARNING
ttStay clear of moving parts while in motion.
tBefore adjusting, make sure children and pets are clear of
moving parts and are not under bed base.
tDo not allow children to operate bed base without adult
supervision
WARNING
Always unplug the base from the electrical outlet before servicing any
part of the base. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the base before

IN-HOME USE AND HOSPITAL STANDARDS
Ergomotion adjustable bed bases are designed solely for in-home use. This base was
not designed as a hospital bed and is not designed to meet hospital standards. Do not
use this base with TENT TYPE oxygen therapy equipment or near explosive gases.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY FEATURES
Casters (optional leg accessory) are equipped with locking wheels to prevent
unwanted movement. Even when locked and unable to roll, it is possible for the
casters to slide. Free release head and foot motors are designed to lower the
mattress by retracting only with gravity, never pulling downwards, which minimizes
pinch points.
ACOUSTICS
LIFTING/LOWERING MECHANISMS
The lift/lower feature will emit a minimal humming sound during operation. This
is normal. During operation, the lift arm wheels make contact with the platform
support of the base. This contact may result in metal on metal or metal on plastic
contact. This applies slight tension on the moving components and resonance is
reduced to a minimum level. If excessive noise or vibration is experienced, reverse
the movement action (up or down) of the base with the remote control. This should
realign the base’s activating mechanisms to the proper operational position. In
normal base operation, the wheels, which allow the bed to maintain its distance
from the wall, will make contact with the steel platform supports of the base creating
a contact noise. When entering, exiting or shifting weight on the base, this contact
noise may be audible as the wheels make contact. This is normal.
MATERIALS
Ergomotion adjustable bases are constructed from various materials including
woods, metals, plastics and fabrics. Tension, pressure or movement applied to
the frame, platform or shroud through general use may create an audible sound.
TOLERANCE
All Ergomotion adjustable foundations, depending on make and model, are
designed and manufactured to perform and function within designated quality
control parameters. Bases are subject to meticulous and rigorous inspections
during the quality control process to ensure bases will operate within these
following: Adjustable foundation is to be operated with a mattress and load. Testing
procedures require lifetime cycle tests with up to 120 kg distributed load. The angle
tolerance of up to 1 ½”.
safety precautions and usage statements
AdjustableBed Toleranceαβ
(α°) (β°)WARNING
For optimal safety and operation, plug bed base into a surge protector
(not included). The bed base should only be plugged directly into a
grounded wall outlet or surge protector (strongly recommended). Improper
connection of the equipment can result in the risk of electrical shock,
electrical file or faulty operation of this bed base. If the plug does not fit
your outlet, contact a qualified Electrician to install a suitable outlet.

translates to a tolerance of up to ¾”.
Any adjustable foundation deemed to be within these allocated tolerances is
considered to have met the manufacturer’s quality control standards.
THAT “NEW PRODUCT” SMELL
Some people notice a slight odor to their new adjustable base. This can come
from our material manufacturing process and the smell normal and usually
disappears before the product reaches you. Sometimes, however, this smell may
still be noticeable. It usually disappears after a few weeks, providing adequate
ventilation of the product and the environment.
BREAK IN PERIOD
You can speed up the break-in period by simply spending time in the adjustable
bed through activities such as reading, watching TV or playing with the kids or
grandkids. The extra movement will help the adjustable base respond to weight
and temperature changes. Some of the materials in our adjustable bases such as
the woods, metals and plastics used in the platform, frame and components are
sensitive to moisture content and temperature and may make sounds in colder
environments.
PAIRED OPERATION
When operating a“paired”split base setup there may be a time latency up to 1.5
seconds between each bases articulation.
WEAR AND TEAR
Wear and tear is damage that naturally and inevitably occurs as a result of
normal use or aging.
FABRIC CARE
To prolong the life of your fabric, protect from direct sunlight whenever possible.
For spot cleaning, wipe area with a light damp sponge or vacuum with a soft brush
attachment to remove particles. Keep at a minimum of 30 cm (12 inches) away
from direct heat sources. For a deeper cleaning, blot liquid spills with a clean dry
cloth. Wipe with a clean cloth dampened with warm water. Do not wet excessively.
A soft bristle brush may be used to remove ingrained soil. Avoid scratching by
gentle brushing. Wipe with a clean cloth dampened with warm water to remove
residues. Dry in shade away from direct heat. If persistent marks remain visible
after cleaning, seek professional advice.
PRODUCT RATINGS
The lift motors are not designed to operate continuously for more than two (2)
minutes in an eighteen (18) minute time period or approximately 10% duty cycle.
Attempting to circumvent or exceed this rating will shorten the life expectancy of
the product and may void the warranty.
WEIGHT LIMITS
This product is not rated to support weights in excess of 650 pounds inclusive
of the mattress and bedding. The base will structurally support this weight,
provided it is evenly distributed across the bed base. The adjustable base is
not designed to support or lift this amount in the head or foot sections alone.
Exceeding this weight restriction could damage the bed and/or cause injury and
will void the warranty.
IMPORTANT DO’S AND DON’TS
