do the necessary procedure.
At the end of the turn period, the unit beeps three times, the occupant is

Sleep
The Sleep Mode is used to temporarily turn off the air system to permit
occupants who are sensitive to sleep surface movement to sleep. The air
pressure in the surface is monitored, but the air pump does not operate
unless the air pressures fall below or raise above a preset level. After
eight hours, the surface will go into Normal mode.
