IMPORTANT: READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY

BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

This SLEEP NUMBER

adjustable base has been quality engineered with

design features to ensure comfort and safety when operated properly.

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING

This product is equipped with a polarized or grounded electrical power cord.

The power cord will only ﬁt into a grounded electrical surge protection device

(not included) or a grounded electrical outlet.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: For optimum adjustable bed operation,

use a grounded electrical surge protection device (not included). Failure to

use a surge protection device could compromise safety or cause

product malfunction.

WARRANTY WARNING

Do not attempt to open the motor or hand control. The product warranty

will be void if these components are tampered with. Do not attempt to alter

component wiring or adjust or modify the structure of the product in any way

or the warranty will be void. Any repair or replacement of adjustable bed parts

must be performed by authorized personnel.

LUBRICATION

This product is designed to be maintenance free. The lift motors are

permanently lubricated and sealed—no additional lubrication is required. Do

not apply lubricant to lift motor lead screws or any nylon nuts or the bed may

inadvertently creep downward from the elevated position.

PRODUCT RATINGS

The bed lift motors are not designed for continuous use. Reliable operation

and full life expectancy will be realized as long as the lift motors do not

operate any more than ﬁve (5) minutes over a thirty (30) minute period, or

approximately 15% duty cycle. Any attempt to circumvent or exceed product

ratings will shorten the life expectancy of the product and may void the

warranty.

The recommended weight restrictions for Sleep Number

adjustable bases

are Full, Queen: 450 lb (204 kg); King, Cal King, Split King: 900 lb (408 kg).

The bed will structurally support the recommended weights distributed

evenly across the head and foot sections. This product is not designed to

support or lift this amount in the head or foot sections alone.

NOTE: Exceeding the recommended weight restrictions could damage the

adjustable bed and void the warranty. For best performance, consumers

should enter and exit the adjustable bed with the bed in the ﬂat (horizontal)

position.

DO NOT SIT ON THE HEAD OR FOOT SECTIONS WHILE

IN THE RAISED POSITION.

UL (Underwriters Laboratories) listed components.

CFR 1633 approved for use with most mattresses.

Made in USA.

SMALL CHILDREN / PETS WARNING

After the bed is unboxed, immediately dispose of packaging material as it can

smother small children and pets. To avoid injury, children or pets should not

be allowed to play under or on the bed. Children should not operate this bed

without adult supervision.

HOSPITAL USE DISCLAIMER

This bed is designed for in-home use only. It is not approved for hospital use

and does not comply with hospital standards. Do not use this bed with tent

type oxygen therapy equipment or use near explosive gases.

FCC COMPLIANCE

Electrical components are rated for 110/120 voltage, 60Hz, 3.9 amp.

Components meet Class B digital device rating (Part 15, FCC rules) for

residential use.

RAISING/LOWERING MECHANISMS

The raise/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 bed. 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 bed with the hand control. This should realign the bed’s activating

mechanisms to the proper operational position.

Advisory

adjustable base fails to operate,

No features of the adjustable bed will activate.

• Verify power cord is plugged into a working, grounded electrical outlet.

A grounded electrical surge protection device is recommended. Test

outlet by plugging in another working appliance.

• Unplug power cord, wait 30 seconds and plug in to reset electronic

Leggett & Platt, Incorporated (“L&P”) warrants this adjustable bed to the

consumer who is the original purchaser (the “purchaser”), subject to the

terms and conditions set forth herein. This warranty begins on the “warranty

commencement date” which is the date of purchase for new unused beds

and the date of manufacture for beds that have been used as ﬂoor or display

models. Thus, on a ﬂoor model bed, the warranty is a portion of the limited

25 year warranty.

FULL 2 YEAR WARRANTY

This adjustable bed is warranted against defects in workmanship or materials

for a period of two (2) years from the warranty commencement date. Upon

notice during the ﬁrst two (2) years after the warranty commencement

date, L&P will repair or replace (at no cost to the purchaser) any defective

adjustable bed part, and L&P will pay all authorized labor and transportation

costs associated with the repair or replacement of any parts found to be

defective.

5 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

During the third through the ﬁfth year from the warranty commencement

date, upon receipt of notice, L&P will replace any adjustable bed part found

to be defective. This limited ﬁve (5) year warranty shall not apply unless the

defective part is returned to L&P within ten (10) days of purchaser’s receipt of

the replacement part. Purchaser shall pay all service and transportation costs

related to the replacement of the defective part.

25 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

Upon notice during the sixth year through the twenty-ﬁfth year from the

warranty commencement date, L&P will replace, upon terms and conditions

set forth in this paragraph, any mechanical bed part found to be defective.

Electronics, electrical components, drive motors and massage motors

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting/Warranty

Additional Terms and Conditions

This warranty does not apply; (a) to any damage caused by the purchaser;

(b) if there has been any repair or replacement of adjustable bed parts by

unauthorized personnel; (c) if the adjustable bed has been mishandled

(whether in transit or by other means), subjected to physical or electrical

abuse or misuse, or otherwise operated in any manner inconsistent with

the operation and maintenance procedures outlined in this document and

this warranty; (d) to damage to mattresses, fabric, cables, electrical cords

or items supplied by dealers. Contact the dealer for warranty information

on these items; (e) if there has been any modiﬁcation to the adjustable bed

without prior written consent by L&P; (f) to costs for unnecessary service calls,

including costs for in-home service calls solely for the purpose of educating

the consumer about the adjustable bed or ﬁnding an unsatisfactory power

connection; (g) if the recommended weight restriction is not followed (refer to

advisory section), the warranty will be void.

Repairs to or replacement of an adjustable bed or its components under

the terms of this limited warranty will apply to the original warranty

period and will not serve to extend such period.

The decision to repair or to replace defective parts under this warranty shall

be made, or cause to be made, by L&P at its option and in its sole discretion.

Repair or replacement shall be the sole remedy of the purchaser. There

shall be no liability on the part of L&P for any special, indirect, incidental, or

consequential damages or for any other damage, claim, or loss not expressly

covered by the terms of this warranty.

This limited warranty does not include reimbursement for inconvenience,

removal, installation, setup time, loss of use, shipping, or any other costs or

expenses. Leggett & Platt or its service technicians shall not be responsible

for moving furniture or any other items not attached to the adjustable bed in

order to perform service on the adjustable bed.

It is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to provide adequate space and

accessibility to the adjustable bed. In the event that the technician is unable

to perform service due to lack of accessibility, the service call will be billed to

the purchaser and the service will have to be rescheduled.

L&P makes no other warranty whatever, express or implied, and all

implied warranties of merchantability and ﬁtness for a particular purpose

are disclaimed by L&P and excluded from this agreement. Some states

do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential

damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to every

purchaser.

This warranty gives the purchaser speciﬁc legal rights, and the purchaser may

also have other rights, which may vary from state to state. This warranty is

valid in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and Canada.
