NOTE: If the Ergo System is to be set up without
a headboard, simply place your Tempur-Pedic

complete. If a headboard is to be installed,
proceed to the next page.
NOTE: If the Ergo System is to be used with a
complete headboard, footboard and side rail
combination, assemble the furniture around the
Ergo System base. DO NOT attach the furniture
to the Ergo System base. DO NOT use slats.
STEP 6
Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
NOTE: An electrical surge protection unit is
recommended (not included).

on the wireless remote control to verify that all of the
features are operational. If your Ergo System does
NOT operate, please refer to the Troubleshooting

NOTE: Failure to follow the proper headboard
bracket installation instructions may result in
damage to your Ergo System.
WARNING: The bottom of the headboard cross member
must be positioned so that there is no more than 3
inches between the bottom of the headboard and the
top of the mattress. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in serious injury or death to a person or
pet caught between the mattress and the headboard.
STEP 1
Assemble the Headboard Bracket:
STEP 1A
Use the wireless remote to raise the head of the bed
in order to gain access to the Ergo System frame.
STEP 1B
Place the Inner Headboard Bracket (D) into the
C-channel frame, making sure the bracket opening and
the C-channel opening are facing each other. This will
create a box shape. This step does not require you to
loosen or remove any bolts on the delivered bed frame.
Place the Bracket Bolt (G) with a 5/16 inch washer (I)
through the predrilled hole in the C-channel frame
and pass it through the Inner Headboard Bracket.
Adding the 5/16 inch washer (I) and 5/16 inch nut (J),
hand tighten the bolt in place using the supplied
wrenches (K and L).
Repeat for the other side of the frame.
STEP 1C
Place the open side of the Outer Headboard Bracket
(E) onto the exposed square tube of the Inner
Headboard Bracket (D). This will create a tight fit
between (D) and (E).
