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 of the
user, the feeling of vibrations will dier. 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 Ergomotion 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 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

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.
