IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURES
Weight fail safe feature: In the case that an overload of
weight is placed on the head or foot mechanism, the control
unit will automatically stop all functions. The control unit will
automatically resume all functions 30 seconds after excess
weight is removed.
The recommended weight limitations for your adjustable bed
is 850 lbs. on all sizes. For your adjustable bed to structurally
support the recommended weight, weight must be distributed
evenly across the head and foot sections. The adjustable bed
will not and is not intended to support or lift this amount in just
the head or foot section. Dependent on the size and/or model
of mattress, the available weight limit may be less.
Locking caster feature: This adjustable bed may be equipped
with special locking casters. For your safety, these casters will
prevent bed movement when all casters are in the locked
position. To lock casters, push down the safety latch on the
caster. To resume product mobility, lift the safety latch up.
NOTE:
If your adjustable bed is positioned on a hard floor
surface such as hardwood or tile, it is strongly recommended
that rubber caster cups or carpet squares are placed under the
casters in addition to locking them in place. Casters will not roll
when locked, but may slide on an uncarpeted surface.
