IN-HOME USE AND HOSPITAL STANDARDS:
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.
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.
LIFTING/LOWERING MECHANISMS
The lift/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 base. This contact may result in metal on metal or metal on plastic contact. 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 control. This should realign the base's
activating mechanisms to the proper operational position. 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.
MATERIALS
Ergomotion adjustable bases are constructed from various materials including woods,
metals, plastics and fabrics. Tension, pressure or movement applied to the frame,
platform or shroud through general use may create an audible sound.
MASSAGE OPERATION AND LOCATION ENVIRONMENT
The massage feature will emit a tone during operation. This is normal. 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 show room,
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. To minimize this resonance, place a piece of carpet, or
rubber caster cups, under each leg or caster of the base. It is possible to experience
vibration or noise from the exterior bed frame, headboard brackets, headboards or
footboards if mounting bolts are not firmly tightened.
Levels 1-6 of massage intensity represent the revolutions of the motor per minute. Level 6
provides the maximum number of RPMs. However, this does not mean that the feeling of
vibration is the strongest. Depending on the mattress material, thickness, and positioning
