TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SHOCK, BURNS, FIRE OR
INJURY:
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). 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, disabled persons or pets. 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.
CHILDREN AND PETS:
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:
Manual operation – If something gets caught in the platform when
flattened, you can manually raise the platform up by lifting at either the
head or foot to relieve pressure and allow for release.
Emergency stop – Stop the motion of the platform by pressing any
button on the remote control.
Power outage – Use the “Emergency Battery Backup Strap” as a
temporary power source to get the base to a desired position.
Instructions on how to operate the Battery Backup Strap are on the
Emergency Battery Backup page(s).
PACEMAKERS:
Some products contain Neodymium MAGNETS which may interfere
with devices such as pacemakers, ICD’s and any other device sensitive
to magnetic fields. It is STRONGLY recommended that owners of
such medical devices consult their physician prior to using products
that contain Neodymium MAGNETS. It is also 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 affect the
pacemaker. Please consult your physician before using the massage
feature.
IN-HOME USE AND HOSPITAL STANDARDS:
Ergo 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.
ADDITIONAL 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
