Your Support Index™ is a number between 1 and 100 that represents your ideal level of comfort, firmness
and support. You can adjust this number up and down in single digit increments, giving you precise control
exclusive to Boyd Night Air
®
Sleep Systems.
Your Support Index™ Setting
As you are adjusting your Boyd Night Air
®
Sleep System for your ideal level of comfort and support you will
want to consider your sleep position and determine whether your neck and back are aligned in the same
position as when you are upright. You may need to make adjustments to the firmness level and/or your pillow.
You should not have discomfort either at your shoulders or hips. Your pillow should keep your body properly
aligned, otherwise it is just interfering with your ability to sleep comfortably. If your pillow makes your head tilt
at an angle to the rest of your body, of if you feel discomfort from pressure at your neck, shoulders, back,
hips or legs you should replace your pillow with one that is properly fitted to both your sleep surface and
sleep position.
How to Determine Your Ideal Support Index™ Setting
It may take several nights of sleeping at different settings in order to determine your ideal Support Index™.
When you have found a setting that you feel offers you the ideal combination of both comfort and support,
program this setting into the memory feature of the hand control (7105 and 3604 models only) Try sleeping
at this setting for a minimum of 5 nights. It will take that long for your body to become accustomed to a new
sleep surface. After five nights, evaluate your sleep experience. If necessary, adust your Boyd Night Air
®
Sleep
System to a firmer or plusher setting and repeat the process until you have found the perfect level of comfort
and support.
