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
Ergo 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 1-3 of massage intensity represent the revolutions of the motor per minute.
Level 3 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 of the user, the feeling of vibrations will differ. We encourage
the user to find the massage intensity setting that suits them best. It is important to
understand the physics of vibrations. Just as an engine may run rough during idle, as
the RPMs increase, the vibrations change concurrently.
TOLERANCE
All Ergo adjustable foundations, depending on make and model, are designed and
manufactured to perform and function within designated quality control parameters.
Bases are subject to meticulous and rigorous inspections during the quality control
2
process to ensure bases will operate within these standards during normal operating
use. Normal operating use is defined as the following: Adjustable foundation is to be
operated with a mattress and load. Testing procedures require lifetime cycle tests with
up to 120kg distributed load. The angle (designated "α" in figure 1) between the back
section and the flat section for various configurations of the mattress support platform
shall be ± 3°, which translates to a tolerance of up to 1 ½".
The angle (designated "β" in figure
1) between the flat section and foot
section for various configurations
of the mattress support platform
shall be ± 3°, which translates to a
tolerance of up to ¾".
Any adjustable foundation deemed
to be within these allocated
tolerances is considered to have met
the manufacturer's quality control
standards.
THAT "NEW PRODUCT" SMELL:
Some people notice a slight odor to their new adjustable base—this can come from
our material manufacturing process. This smell is normal and usually disappears before
the product reaches you. Sometimes, however, this smell may still be noticeable. It
usually disappears after a few weeks, providing adequate ventilation of the product
and the environment.
BREAK IN PERIOD:
You can speed up the break-in period by simply spending time in the adjustable bed
through activities such as reading, watching TV or playing with the kids or grandkids.
The extra movement will help the adjustable base respond to weight and temperature
changes. Some of the materials in our adjustable bases such as the woods, metals and
plastics used in the platform, frame and components are sensitive to moisture content
and temperature and may make sounds in colder environments.
PAIRED OPERATION:
When operating a "paired" split base setup there may be a time latency up to 1.5
seconds between each bases articulation.
