FOUNDATION USE

Products MADE AFTER March 1, 2015

Proper Use

• Use a new Beautyrest

or Simmons

foundation or a supportive, rigid, non-

yielding foundation. An old foundation unit may not provide sufficient support.

• If used with a foundation, use a frame that provides rigid center support as well

as support for the head, foot, and sides. For any queen or king frame that does

not have a metal center support, you must use at least 5 hardwood or metal slats

(1" x 4") and add legs to the 3 center slats. By not providing a sufficient

supportive frame, damage can occur to the product that will void your warranty.

• If used without a foundation (e.g. with a platform bed), add a solid platform on top

of any open slatted mattress support system in which the spaces between the

slats are greater than 2 inches (5 centimeters). Hardboard, plywood, particle

board or a similar material, inserted between the mattress and the slatted

platform, supporting the entire surface of the mattress will provide appropriate

support. Use of an open slatted mattress support system in which the spaces

between the slats are greater than 2 inches (5 centimeters), without the addition

of a solid platform, will damage your mattress and void your warranty.
