hypochlorite solution (1,000 ppm
chlorine). Removable, contaminated
covers should be laundered at 65°C for
not less than 10 minutes or at 95°C for
not less than 3 minutes.
• Frequent or prolonged exposure to higher

prematurely age the fabric of the cover.

• To aid storage and handling this Sensaflex
3000 mattress may be compact
rolled. Whilst this does not affect the
performance and lifespan of the mattress,
the mattress should be unrolled within 21
days of receipt.
• When removing packaging use great care
to ensure the cover is not damaged.

• Please ensure that once unrolled the
cover seams sit correctly to the edges of

may occur in the rolling process but can
easily be re aligned over the mattress
