safety precautions and usage statements

Attention: Important Safety Disclaimers Read all instructions before using your adjustable base. Save these instructions.

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.

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 (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 the control box, motors, or remote (except 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:
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 accessories) are equipped with locking wheels to prevent unwanted movement. Even when locked and unable to roll, the casters can 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 for the 40+ or 850 pounds for the 330/390. This product is not rated to support weights over 650/850 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 showroom,
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 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. Dry in the shade away from direct heat. If persistent marks remain visible after cleaning, seek professional advice.

  • Check to ensure the green LED light is illuminated on the control box. If there is no light, verify that the input and power cords are properly connected.
  • Unplug the base for 1 hour to reset the electronic components.
  • Plug the bed base into a different electrical outlet, or test the current outlet with another working appliance (a grounded, electrical surge protector is recommended).
