BEFORE USING THE SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM
Make sure that SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM is used in a clean and dust-
free environment with low humidity. Dust and moisture can
limit the lifetime and functionality of the technology.
Do not use the pillow near electric blankets, hot water bottles
or other hot objects, as their high temperatures can damage
the pillow or its properties.
USE OF THE SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM – INITIAL OPERATION
Place the SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM on your bed like a normal pillow
(see figure).
Pillow:
symbol for correct pillow position
microphones
positioning of control unit in case
Control unit:
power plug (6V DC)
system display:
GREEN LIGHT UP
, if the pillow is exposed to
pressure (head placement was registered)
GREEN FLASHING
, if snoring sounds are recorded
power ON/on switch
active ON/air chamber activity ON (anti-snoring function
activated)
Active ON
– the air chamber activity is activated. Snoring sounds
are recorded and the air chambers embedded in the cushion
softly guide the head of the user in a different position until the
snoring stops.
A deactivation of the air chamber activity and anti-snoring
function (Active OFF) with simultaneous USB connection allows
you to record your regular snoring sounds, as they occurred on
your existing pillow.
USB connection
line-IN for external microphone (optional)
cable to pillow
Back label of control unit:
Do not expose the pillow to excessive pressure by forcibly squee-
zing, pushing or bending it. Make sure that the two microphones
(B) at the front of the pillow are not covered. If desired, you can
additionally use any conventional pillow case (does not affect
the microphone output) for the SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM. Plug the
power plug (D) in the power connector and the control unit (C).
Turn both switches, power (F) and active (G) ON. Both lights on
the control panel light up green. Place the control unit with case
at the side of or under your bed. Make sure that the cable bet-
ween the control unit and the pillow is not tightened or pinched.
SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM was developed for use by a single person.
The USB connection (H) (USB cable not included) and the PC
software (free download at: www.sisselsilencium.com) enable
you to record the snoring habits, intensity and head position on
the pillow, as well as the movement action of the SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM with any conventional Windows PC. The effect of the
SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM can be checked by comparing the snoring
time with and without activated pillow mode (G - Active ON /
OFF), see above.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
Store the SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM in its original shape in a dry en-
vironment (maximum 65% relative humidity) and at a suit-
able room temperature (+5 to +45° C). Store the SISSEL
®
SILENCIUM carefully (do not fold or bend, do not expose to
pressure) to prevent shape or technical damage of the pillow.
Use the original packaging for transportation.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The pillow can not be washed or dry cleaned. To clean the pillow,
remove the outer cover, air the pillow or gently wipe the inside,
moisture-resistant protective cover with a slightly damp cloth to
remove dust or stains from the surface. The inner cover protects
the sensitive technical parts of your pillow from moisture build-
up. The outer pillow cover can be removed and cleaned accor-
ding to the instructions on the washing label (inside the cover).
For washing, the cover needs to be turned inside out and the
zipper closed.
FIRE SAFETY

®
SILENCIUM is fire-retardant. Do
not smoke in bed !
