Important Safety Information
Please read all safety warnings and instructions carefully before operating your adjustable bed. Failure to do so may result in injury or damage to the product.

- Power Disconnection: Always unplug the bed from the power outlet before performing any maintenance, cleaning, or moving the unit.

Comfort Base App (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi)
Download the Glideaway Comfort Base App from your device's app store. The app allows control of the bed via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Follow the in-app instructions for pairing.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Glideaway Odessa Adjustable Bed, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the upholstered surfaces and frame with a dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as they may damage the fabric or finish.

- Power Cord: Regularly inspect the power cord for any signs of damage or fraying. If damage is found, discontinue use and contact customer support.
- Legs: Periodically check that the leg sections are securely tightened to prevent tilting or instability.
Troubleshooting

|---|---|---|
| Bed does not respond to remote/app. | No power; remote not paired; remote batteries low. | Check power connection. Re-pair remote according to instructions. Replace remote batteries. |
