CARE INSTRUCTIONS

 

 
 

To maximise the benefits of your new mattress:
 
BICO Climaluxe mattress : Turn your BICO Climaluxe mattress every month end to end and side to side for the first three months, then every six months. This will help even out the slight body impressions that will develop as the upholstery settles.

BICO AirPulse mattress: As this is a one sided mattress, it does not need to be turned over, only rotated.
 
NOTTINBLU Sinue and Celebrity mattresses: Turn your Nottinblu Sinue or Celebrity mattress every month end to end and side to side for the first three months, then every six months. This will help even out the slight body impressions that will develop as the upholstery settles
 
NOTTINBLU Anatomik mattress: As this is a one sided mattress, it does not need to be turned over, only rotated.
 
Don’t use an old foundation with your new mattress. The two parts of your sleep set work together for your comfort and support.
 
Occasional airing of your mattress is recommended.
 
Do not cover the mattress with synthetic material, this blocks transpiration and may also be flammable.


WASHING YOUR MATTRESS COVER

To wash your mattress cover, unzip the cover all the way around the mattress. Unhook the cover from the ‘mattress handles’ and lift cover off.

Machine wash at 60 degrees for optimum results, air dry in shade.

Remove residual material with a clean sponge. Stains caused by organic material may be removed by gently rubbing the cover with a damp sponge and a small amount of delicate detergent or white vinegar.


MATTRESS SUPPORTS

Correct mattress support is important to provide long life for the mattress. Mattresses always follow the contour of whatever they rest on. A base that is too hard, too soft, not supportive or restricts air circulation may damage your mattress.

If your new base features a flexible slat construction, it is recommended that the slats be rotated from high load areas (centre of bed) to low load areas (i.e. below the feet) to enhance the durability of the slats. If your flexible slats lose their resilience and become concave (dip downwards in the centre) instead of convex (arch upwards) it may adversely affect the structural integrity of your new mattress.

Slats must be spaced no more than 8cm apart and measure no more than 12cm wide so as not to cause mildew by not allowing moisture to evaporate sufficiently.

A breathable insulating mattress protector or blanket over the slats is advisable.


OTHER THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

  • At first your new mattress may feel a little different from the mattress you have been sleeping on. Don’t worry, you’ll soon adjust to the extra comfort and support that this unique sleep system provides
  • When first unpackaged, the product may emit a characteristic odour. This is completely harmless and disappears after a short period
  • Small indentations are normal on the surface of any new mattress whilst the upholstery filling is settling to a normal position and adjusting to your body contours. This does not constitute a manufacturer’s fault. Up to 25mm height loss is considered normal
  • The mattress must not be folded, rolled or tightly tied
  • Remove and destroy the plastic bag. Do not allow children to play with the bag
  • Do not smoke in bed.
