the control unit will automatically stop all functions. The
control unit will automatically resume all functions 30
seconds after excess weight is removed.
The recommended weight limitations for your adjustable
bed is 850 lbs. on all sizes. For your adjustable bed
to structurally support the recommended weight,
weight must be distributed evenly across the head and
foot sections. The adjustable bed will not and is not
intended to support or lift this amount in just the head
or foot section. Dependent on the size and/or model of

these casters will prevent bed movement when all
casters are in the locked position. To lock casters, push
down the safety latch on the caster. To resume product
mobility, lift the safety latch up.
NOTE:
If your adjustable bed is positioned on a hard
floor surface such as hardwood or tile, it is strongly
recommended that rubber caster cups or carpet
squares are placed under the casters in addition to
locking them in place. Casters will not roll when locked,
but may slide on an uncarpeted surface.
FOR OPTIMAL SAFETY, YOUR ADJUSTABLE BED SHOULD BE PLUGGED INTO A
SURGE PROTECTOR (not supplied with this adjustable bed).
