minimum level. If excessive noise or vibraon is experienced, reverse the movement
acon (up or down) of the base with the remote control. This should realign the base’s
acvang mechanisms to the proper operaonal posion. In normal base operaon,
the wheels, which allow the bed to maintain its distance from the wall, will make
contact with the steel plaorm supports of the base creang a contact noise. When
entering, exing or shiing weight on the base, this contact noise may be audible as
the wheels make contact. This is normal.
MATERIALS
Ergo adjustable bases are constructed from various materials including woods, metals,
plascs and fabrics. Tension, pressure or movement applied to the frame, plaorm or
shroud through general use may create an audible sound.
TOLERANCE
All Ergo adjustable foundaons, depending on make and model, are designed and
manufactured to perform and funcon within designated quality control parameters.
Bases are subject to meculous and rigorous inspecons during the quality control
process to ensure bases will operate within these standards during normal operang
use. Normal operang use is dened as the following: Adjustable foundaon is to be
operated with a maress and load. Tesng procedures require lifeme cycle tests with
up to 120kg distributed load. The angle (designated “α” in gure) between the back
secon and the at secon for various conguraons of the maress support plaorm
shall be ± 3°, which translates to a tolerance of up to 1 ½”.
The angle (designated “β” in gure 1) between the at secon and foot secon for
various conguraons of the maress
support plaorm shall be ± 3°, which
translates to a tolerance of up to ¾”.
Any adjustable foundaon deemed
to be within these allocated
tolerances is considered to have met
the manufacturer’s quality control
standards.
THAT “NEW PRODUCT” SMELL:
Some people noce a slight odor to their new adjustable base—this can come from
our material manufacturing process. This smell is normal and usually disappears before
the product reaches you. Somemes, however, this smell may sll be noceable. It
usually disappears aer a few weeks, providing adequate venlaon of the product
and the environment.
BREAK IN PERIOD:
You can speed up the break-in period by simply spending me in the adjustable bed
through acvies 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
plascs used in the plaorm, frame and components are sensive to moisture content
and temperature and may make sounds in colder environments.
PAIRED OPERATION:
When operang a “paired” split base setup there may be a me latency up to 1.5
seconds between each bases arculaon.
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 so brush
aachment to remove parcles. Keep at a minimum of 30cm (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 so 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 aer cleaning, seek professional
advice.
