BEDS
Care of Your New Bed
Remove the polythene cover from the mattress and base, otherwise condensation created during sleeping will lead to a damp bed, mildew and potential rotting.
Turn the mattress over (when not designed for single sided use) and reverse head to foot every week for the first month and then at three monthly intervals. This helps the fillings to settle evenly.
Check headboard fitting and legs or castors regularly to ensure they are tight and secure.
Every few months brush your mattress and base with a soft brush to remove dust and fluff.
Do not use a vacuum cleaner, which can disturb fillings.
It is inevitable that the mattress fillings will become compressed where the sleeper's weight is concentrated, creating a visible indentation. This tends to be more pronounced in better quality
beds using more generous fillings. This is not a manufacturing fault and can be minimised by turning the mattress regularly.
Modern CMHR foams and other upholstery products used in the manufacture of your bed can produce a slight odour initially; this is a character of newness and will fade over time.
