5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Zinus SmartBase Elite Mattress Foundation, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Relocation: If you need to move the foundation, it can be easily disassembled and refolded for transport. This makes it convenient to carry, set up, and store.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all connections and ensure the legs are securely locked to maintain stability.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your SmartBase Elite Mattress Foundation, refer to the following common solutions:

• Squeaking Noises: If the frame develops squeaking noises, apply a small amount of thread locker (e.g., Permatex blue gel thread locker) to the threads of each fastener and tighten them. This can help prevent loosening over time.
• Mattress Sliding: If your mattress tends to slide on the frame, consider using non-slip mattress pads or Velcro strips between the mattress and the frame to secure it in place.
• Instability: Ensure all legs are fully extended and locked into their upright position. Verify that the two halves of the frame are securely connected if applicable to your model.
