Select Comfort U 3000 manual Mattress Care

Mattress Care

The cover of your SLEEP NUMBER® mattress may be spot cleaned with carbonated water. Do not dry clean the mattress cover or put it in a washing machine. Also, please do not apply stain guard, as it may cause yellowing of the fabric.

Select Comfort is a leader in the industry in the use of materials designed to inhibit the growth of allergens or microorganisms that, in rare circumstances, can form inside any mattress, bedding, pillow or upholstered product.

Advanced antimicrobial safeguards are incorporated into every Sleep Number® bed. Key components of the mattress have been treated to protect the bed from contaminants such as mold, mildew and bacteria growth. The unique, zip-open design of the Sleep Number® bed allows you to easily open, ventilate

or vacuum if you choose.

In rare instances under the right conditions, mold or mildew can form inside many types of mattresses, bedding or upholstered products. Should this condition occur in your mattress, please contact our customer service department so we can work with you to return your bed to factory-fresh condition.

Transporting Your Sleep Number® Bed

Your Sleep Number® bed is lighter than any conventional bed, making it much easier to move.

Moving it yourself

•The foundation should always be disassembled. Bag all hardware so that it is not lost.

•The cover and foam should all be double bagged to prevent stains.

•The chambers should be deflated and boxed to prevent possible abrasions and other damage.

•The Firmness Control™ System should be packed in a box, surrounded by some sort of packing material if the original box is not available.

•The remote, caps and instructions should be tucked

in the box with the pump to prevent them from being lost.

Using a moving company

•The foundation should always be disassembled. Bag all hardware so that it is not lost.

•The mattress can be fully inflated, capped off, and should be packaged in a mattress box for moving.

•The Firmness Control™ System should be packed in a box, with packing material, and transported in a manner where it will be exposed to minimal shock and vibration.

Creating a Healthy

Sleep Environment

An estimated 50 million Americans suffer

from allergies, and the bedroom presents some especially difficult challenges. A few simple steps you can take to create a healthy sleep environment include:

•Use a dehumidifier to reduce any potential mold or mildew growth. Keep humidity levels under 60 percent.

•Use a high-quality mattress pad to protect your mattress from moisture. You may want to consider a waterproof mattress pad if you perspire heavily while sleeping.

•Use allergen covers on pillows and mattresses to reduce dust mites, which can trigger allergies and asthma. Wash bedding weekly in hot water.

•Vacuum the bedroom regularly, using a high quality vacuum cleaner such as one with

a HEPA filter, one that does deep cleaning, or a central vacuum system.

•Wait 20-30 minutes before making your bed each morning, turning the covers back and allowing the mattress to air out for a bit.

•If possible, avoid placing your bed on an outside wall or above an air conditioning

or heating vent, which can cause condensation and increase the likelihood of mold growth in many mattresses.

•You could also use a high-quality electronic air purifier to remove additional airborne particulates from the bedroom.

•Please note: Ozone generators ARE NOT recommended for use in the same room with the Sleep Number® bed, as they can degrade components of the bed over time.
