important information
READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT
This Power Foundation has been quality engineered with design features to assure comfort and
safety when operated properly.
ELEctRicAL gROUNdiNg
This product is equipped with a polarized or
grounded electrical power cord. The power cord
will only fit into a grounded, electrical surge
protection device (not included) or a grounded
electrical outlet.
FOR OPTIMUM POWER FOUNDATION
OPERATION, USE A GROUNDED,
ELECTRICAL SURGE PROTECTION DEVICE
(NOT INCLUDED). FAILURE TO USE A
SURGE PROTECTION DEVICE COULD
COMPROMISE SAFETY OR CAUSE PRODUCT
MALFUNCTION.
WARRANty WARNiNg
Do not open any control boxes, motors or
hand control devices (with the exception of
the hand control and power down box battery
compartments). The product warranty will be
void if these components are tampered with.
Do not attempt to alter component wiring or
adjust or modify the structure of the product in
any way or the warranty will be void. Any repair
or replacement of bed parts must be performed
by authorized personnel.
LUbRicAtiON
This product is designed to be maintenance
free. The lift motors are permanently lubricated
and sealed—no additional lubrication is
required. Do not apply lubricant to lift motor
lead screws or any nylon nuts or the bed may
inadvertently creep downward from the elevated
position.
PROdUct RAtiNgS
The bed lift motors are not designed for
continuous use. Reliable operation and full life
expectancy will be realized as long as the lift
motors do not operate any more than five (5)
minutes over a thirty (30) minute period, or
approximately 15% duty cycle. Note: massage
equipped beds are not designed for continuous,
extended massage operation. Massage systems
are rated for a maximum of 2 hours of use
within any 6 hour period. Any attempt to
circumvent or exceed product ratings will
shorten the life expectancy of the product and
may void the warranty.
The recommended weight restrictions for Power
Foundations are as follows: AC equipped - 600
lb (272 kg) all sizes; DC equipped - 450 lb
(204 kg) all sizes. The bed will structurally
support the recommended weight distributed
evenly across the head and foot sections. This
product is not designed to support or lift this
amount in the head or foot sections alone.
Note: exceeding the recommended weight
restrictions could damage the bed and void the
warranty.
For best performance, consumers should enter
and exit the adjustable bed with the bed in the
flat (horizontal) position. DO NOT SIT ON THE
HEAD OR FOOT SECTIONS WHILE IN THE RAISED
POSITION.
UL (Underwriters Laboratories) recognized
components.
CFR 1633 approved for use with most
mattresses.
Made in USA.

READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT
This Power Foundation has been quality engineered with design features to assure comfort and
safety when operated properly.
fcc cOMPLiANcE
Electrical components are rated for 110/120
voltage, 60Hz, 3.9 amp. Components meet
Class B digital device rating (Part 15, FCC
rules) for residential use. Power Foundations
generate, use and may radiate radio frequency
energy. Radio communication may be affected
if not installed and operated as recommended
in this manual. Changes or modifications not
expressively approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
Radio frequency = 310MHz.
LOckiNg cAStER SAfEty fEAtURE
Many Power Foundations are equipped with
locking casters to prohibit the bed from
movement. For best results, place rubber caster
cups under locking casters when the bed is
located on smooth or hard surface flooring—it
is possible for locking caster equipped beds to
slide without the use of rubber caster cups.
To activate locking casters, push down on the
lock tab. To disengage the locking mechanism,
push up on the lock tab (see illustration below).
LOCKING CASTER
DETAIL
LOCK
SMALL cHiLdREN / PEtS WARNiNg
After the bed is unboxed, immediately dispose
of packaging material as it can smother small
children and pets. To avoid injury, children or
pets should not be allowed to play under or on
the bed. Children should not operate this bed
without adult supervision.
HOSPitAL USE diScLAiMER
This bed is designed for in-home use only. It
is not approved for hospital use and does not
comply with hospital standards. Do not use this
bed with tent type oxygen therapy equipment,
or use near explosive gases.
PAcEMAkER WARNiNg
This product produces a vibrating sensation.
It is possible that individuals with heart-assist
pacemakers may experience a sensation similar
to exercise. Consult physician for complete
information.
SERvicE REqUiREMENtS
Service technicians are not responsible for
moving furniture, removing headboards and
footboards or any items required to perform
maintenance on the bed. In the event the
technician is unable to perform service due
to lack of accessibility, the service call will
be billed to the purchaser and the service will
have to be rescheduled.

Power Foundations Owners Manual 99300787-k 5
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 bed.
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 bed with the hand control.
This should realign the bed’s activating
mechanisms to the proper operational position.
MASSAgE OPERAtiON
The massage feature will emit a minimal tone
during operation. This is normal. When the
massage level is increased, motor resonance
will intensify accordingly.
LOcAtiON ENviRONMENt
The level of sound experienced during
operation is directly related to the location
environment. For example, when a bed is
located on a hardwood floor with the massage
feature in operation, a vibrating tone will be
audible. To minimize this resonance, place
a piece of carpet—or optional rubber caster
cups—under each leg or caster of the bed. See
the accessory sheet included with this manual
for rubber caster cup order information.
It is possible to experience vibration or noise
from the headboard brackets, headboards or
footboards if mounting bolts are not firmly
tightened.

In the event the Power Foundation fails to operate, investigate the symptoms and possible
solutions provided in the chart below:
SyMPtOM SOLUtiON
• Verify power cord is plugged into a working, grounded
electrical outlet. A grounded, electrical surge protection
device is recommended. Test outlet by plugging in
another working appliance.
• Program the hand control (see Hand Control
Programming included with this manual for
programming procedures).
• Unplug power cord, wait 30 seconds and plug in to
reset electronic components.
• Electrical circuit breaker may be tripped. Check
electrical service breaker box to verify.
• Defective surge protection device or electrical outlet.
Test outlet by plugging in another working appliance.
• Replace batteries in the hand control.
• Bed mechanism may be obstructed. Elevate bed and
check for obstruction. Remove obstruction.
• Head section may be too close to the wall.
• Headboard may be too close the edge of the mattress.
Verify a 1.5” (38.1mm) to 2” (50.8mm) distance
between headboard brackets and mattress. Adjust if
required.
• Verify headboard brackets were removed during
installation. Remove headboard brackets if still
attached to the underneath side of bed.
• If bed is located on hard surface ooring, place carpet
pieces or rubber caster cups under each leg or caster
of the bed. (See accessory section of this manual for
rubber caster cup order information.)
• Elevate the head or foot section a short distance (with
the hand control) to realign the lift/lower mechanisms
with the bed support platform.
• Verify that the bed is not positioned against a wall,
nightstand, or other object that may cause vibration or
noise.
• If bed is installed over a bed frame, verify massage
motors are not causing bed frame (or bed frame
components) to vibrate.
• Verify that headboard attachment hardware is tightened
firmly (if used).
Hand control illuminates and appears to be
operable, but will not activate bed.
No features of the bed will activate.
Hand control will not illuminate.
Head or foot section will elevate, but will not
return to the horizontal (flat) position.
Excessive massage motor noise.
