EN safety precautions and usage statements
Outlet Safety: 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). Improper connection of the
equipment can result in the risk of electrical shock, electrical fire or
faulty operation of this bed base. If the plug does not fit your outlet,
contact a qualified electrician to install a suitable outlet. Unauthorized
modification or failure to use a wall outlet or surge protector could
void the electrical portion of your warranty.
Warranty Warning:
Do not open or tamper with control box, motors, or remote (with the
exception of battery compartments). The warranty will be void if the
internal workings of these components are tampered with.
For complete warranty information visit www.ergomotion.com or
refer to the warranty card included with the base.
In-Home Use and Hospital Disclaimer:
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.
Pacemaker Notice:
It is possible that some pacemakers may falsely interpret the
optional massage feature vibrations as movement/exercise. This
is a common occurrence with any product that creates a vibrating
movement and may not affect the pacemaker. Please consult your
physician before using the massage feature.
Pets and Small 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.
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.
Product Ratings:
The lift motors are not designed to operate continuously for more than
[2] minutes in an [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 exceeding 650 (Micro-
Tech and Aspire) or 850 pounds (Zero G Lifestyle, Elevate and Curve).
This product is not rated to support weights in excess of 650 or
850 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.
Acoustics:
The massage function will emit a noticeable tone during operation.
As the massage intensity level is increased, the tone will
intensify. The volume of this tone is directly related to the location
environment. For example, when demonstrated in a show room, the
surrounding environmental noise will cover some of the massage
noise. However, when installed in a home setting with wooden
floors, carpeted or not, the massage volume will be more noticeable.
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.
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 30cm (12 inches) away from direct heat
sources.
For 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,seek professional advice.
To reduce the risk of shock, burns, fire or injury:
• 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 cleaning. To safely disconnect,
ensure the base is in a flat position with all motors off, and
unplug from power source.
• Keep the power cord away from 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 opening.
• Discontinue use of the bed base and contact a qualified
service center 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
recommended by the manufacturer.
• Close supervision is required when the bed base is used by or
near children, convalescents or disabled persons.
