The Malouf Structures E450 Adjustable Base is a sophisticated and versatile adjustable bed frame designed to enhance comfort and provide customizable sleep positions. This owner's manual outlines the product's features, assembly instructions, remote control operation, electrical components, backup battery functionality, synchronization of multiple bases, and troubleshooting tips, all backed by a 20-year limited warranty.
The Structures E450 Adjustable Base allows users to independently adjust the head and foot sections of their bed to achieve various positions, promoting personalized comfort for sleeping, reading, watching TV, or relaxing. The base is equipped with head and foot motors that facilitate smooth and quiet adjustments. It also includes integrated USB ports for convenient device charging. The product is designed for in-home use and is not intended as a hospital bed. It operates on a standard 120-volt circuit and requires a grounded electrical surge protection device for safe operation.
The assembly process for the E450 Adjustable Base is straightforward, requiring a minimum of two people. Users begin by placing the box with the bottom facing up and carefully removing packaging materials. The bed base is then removed from the box and placed mattress-side down. All components, including the four 8.5-inch legs, retainer bar, power supply box, power cord, and wireless remote control, are located on the underside of the base and should be set aside for assembly.
The legs are hand-tightened into the bed frame, with options for either an outside or inside placement, ensuring consistency. The power cord is then connected to the receptacle on the bed motor, ensuring a secure connection. With two to four people, the bed is lifted by its metal frame and turned over so the mattress side faces up, taking care not to lift by the fabric or use the legs as pivot points to avoid damage. Finally, the mattress retainer bar is inserted into its respective slots on the bed frame.
The E450 Adjustable Base is operated via a wireless remote control, which comes pre-paired with the foundation. The remote features pre-programmed buttons for quick adjustments and arrow buttons for manual control. Key functions include:
To program a custom position for the "ZERO GRAVITY" or "ANTI SNORE" buttons, users simultaneously press and hold the "FLAT" and "ZERO GRAVITY" buttons until the desired position is saved. The same process applies to the "ANTI SNORE" button.
If the remote control is not paired with the base, users should first ensure the remote batteries are functioning and the power cord is plugged into a powered source. To pair, simultaneously press and hold the HEAD CONTROL RAISE and FOOT CONTROL RAISE buttons on the remote. While holding these, also press and hold the blue button on the control box cord until two beeps are heard, indicating successful pairing. The blue pairing button on the control box cord can also be used to lower the base to the flat position in an emergency.
The bed base includes two USB ports located under the head portion. To access these ports, users press the "HEAD UP" button to raise the bed. Once a device is plugged in, the bed can be lowered or adjusted as preferred.
For split bed configurations, two bases can be synchronized to operate with a single remote. First, ensure both bases are plugged into a power source and that each remote is individually paired to its respective base. Then, pair Remote A to Base B using the same pairing instructions (press and hold HEAD CONTROL RAISE and FOOT CONTROL RAISE on Remote A, then press and hold the blue button on Base B's control box cord). Once synchronized, only one remote is needed to operate both bases.
After setup, it is recommended to test all functions for approximately 3 seconds each to ensure proper operation. It is important to always return the base to the flat position when switching between preset options.
The wireless remote control requires two AAA batteries, which are included. To replace them, remove the battery cover on the back of the remote and insert new batteries as shown in the diagram.
The E450 Adjustable Base includes a backup battery system for use during power outages. This system requires two 9V batteries (not included). To install, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, remove the cover from the compartment on the underside of the power supply, insert the 9V batteries, close the cover, and plug the power cord back into the wall outlet. The backup battery provides temporary power to allow the base to be moved to a flat position but is not designed for repeated movement over an extended period. Once power is restored, the 9V batteries should be removed, and the power cord plugged back in for normal use.
The manual provides guidance for common issues:
