Advisory
Important Information
Read the following information carefully before using this product. This adjustable base
has been quality-engineered with design features to optimize your comfort and safety
when operated properly.
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
5 minutes over a 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
FlexFit
™
adjustable bases are as follows: DC equipped - 600 lb (272 kg) all sizes. The bed
will structurally support the recommended weights 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 adjustable bed and void the warranty. For best performance, consumers
should enter and exit the adjustable bed with the bed in the flat (horizontal) position.
CAUTION: DO NOT SIT ON THE HEAD OR FOOT SECTIONS WHILE IN THE
RAISED POSITION.
Operating Information
•After bed assembly is complete, operate remote to ensure proper bed functions.
•Keep moving parts free of obstruction (including sheets, clothing, tubing, wiring, and
products using electric power cords) during bed operation.
•Distribute body weight evenly over bed surface. Do not place entire weight on raised
head or foot sections of the bed, including during repositioning and entering or
exiting bed.
FCC Compliance
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Any attempt to make changes or modifications to the remote (e.g. an intentional radiator)
could void the user's authority to operate the remote according to FCC certification
(section 15.231).
Small Children/Pets Warning
CAUTION: 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
CAUTION: This base 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 base with tent
type oxygen therapy equipment or near explosive gases.
Pacemaker Warning
CAUTION: If the massage feature is in use, 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.
Raising/Lowering Mechanisms
The raise/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 base with the remote. This should realign the base’s activating
mechanisms to the proper operational position.
Service Requirements
NOTE: Service technicians are not responsible for moving furniture, removing headboards
and footboards or any items required to perform maintenance on the adjustable 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.
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.
Locking Caster Safety Feature
This product is 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).
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 FlexFit
™
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 Optional Accessories section on page XX of 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.
