Understanding the remote control features
- The adjustable bed uses BLE (Bluetooth® Low Energy) remote control system.
- The buttons are backlit when pressed to aid in the visibility of the remote control in low-light environments.
- It is not necessary to face the receiver when operating the remote control. Remote signal is best transmitted within 9 feet (3 meters) of the bed.
- NOTE: The bed may show minor intermittent performance because of typical radio frequency interference. This is normal in the operation of the bed, not a defect.
Customizing the preset buttons
You can store new head and foot positions by customizing the preset buttons: Incline, Lounge, and Zero Gravity. These can be reprogrammed with your desired positions at any time. For safety reasons, the Anti-Snore and Flat buttons cannot be customized.
- Move the head and/or foot sections to your desired position.
- Press and hold the Program button and any of the preset buttons at the same time for 2.5 seconds. The new bed position is now stored in your selected preset button overriding the factory default. To restore the presets to their factory settings, see “Resetting your system” on page 12.
Synchronizing two beds for tandem operation
Your adjustable bed is pre-programmed to your remote. However, to operate two adjustable beds together, you must pair both to one remote control. Make sure your first adjustable bed (Bed A) is plugged in before focusing on your second adjustable bed (Bed B). To complete the pairing, do the following:
- Plug Bed B to a grounded electrical outlet. A surge protector is recommended.
- On the power supply unit or control box, press and hold the Learn button for three (3) seconds. The indicator LED will blink three (3) times then turn off. At this time, the control box is in pairing mode.
- On the remote control, press and hold the Flat and massage Stop buttons for four (4) seconds. When the pairing process is successful, the indicator LED on the control box or power supply will blink once and then remain on. This ends the pairing mode. Bed A and Bed B now function using Remote A. Pairing of the two adjustable beds for tandem operation is complete.
- NOTE: When doing a tandem operation, both Bed A and Bed B should be plugged into a grounded and working electrical outlet
