Setting-Up and Using the Sleep Support System

:
• Place the Face Rest Platform on top of the mattress, at the head of
the bed. Next place the Torso Cushion flat side dow, with the angled
part of the cushion aimed towards the foot of the bed.
(Fig 1)
• Lie on top of the Torso Cushion; your shoulders should be positioned
near the edge of the cushion near the face rest.
(Fig.2)
• Verify that all 3 white cam locks are unlocked. Holding the U-shaped
bar of the Face Rest Platform, (the Face Rest Cushion is attached
to the platform with Velcro
®
brand hook & loop fastening strips)
pull the face rest toward you until your forehead rests comfortably
on the Face Rest Cushion. You can move the cushion around in
this unlocked position until your neck, head and shoulders are
comfortable and supported.
Note: The recommended position for the face rest should be horizontal
but angled slightly down so your forehead is lower than your chin.
(see Fig 2) You should be looking face-down at the back of the Face
Rest Platform.
The face rest should be in a horizontal position with
your face parallel to the mattress. Gently tighten the cam locks to
lock the face rest in place.
(Fig. 3)
• You may find you will need to adjust the Torso Cushion by moving
it further away or closer to the Face Rest for optimum comfort and
support. You can also adjust the Face Rest Cushion by moving it
on the platform. It is attached with hook & loop fasteners and
moves easily; just pull up and reposition it.
• To relieve tension in the lumbar region, you can use a pillow
under the lower legs to raise them a bit, loosen the possible
strain and relax in an ergonomic position.
