Close supervision is required when the bed base is used by or near children, convalescents, or disabled persons.

Outlet Safety

For optimal safety and operation, plug the bed base into a surge protector (not included). The bed base should only be plugged directly into a wall outlet or surge protector (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.

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:

The recommended weight limits on the EASE® are: Twin / Twin Long / Full / Queen / King / Cal King / Cal King Split: 650 pounds The maximum weight the bed can support per person is 250 pounds with the weight evenly distributed across the head and foot sections. This product is not designed to support or lift this amount of weight in the head or foot sections alone.

NOTE: Exceeding the recommended weight restrictions could damage your EASE® and void your warranty. For best performance, you should enter and exit the EASE® while it is in the flat or fully lowered position. EASE® fits easily inside bed frames, furniture beds, and platform beds that are certified to hold a minimum of 850 pounds. If Use this adjustable base without the legs and place it directly on a bed frame or platform bed, cross-bed supports (slats) are strongly recommended to ensure EASE® maintains stability during operation. Exceeding this weight restriction could damage the bed and/or cause injury and will void the warranty.

Acoustics
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 it from direct sunlight whenever possible. For spot cleaning, wipe the 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 after brushing. Dry in the shade away from direct heat. If persistent marks remain visible after cleaning, seek professional advice. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
