Putting into Service
• The product can be used in any bed. Put the mattress with the red side up onto the slatted frame or your bed’s sup-
porting structure.
• The mattress can also be used without any slatted frame. In this case, there has to be a support surface of at least
13 cm / 5.1" in width on the long sides.
• Please note: For beds with side rails, side rail risers might be need.
Assembly
Please note, that the ThevoautoActiv mattress will be delivered in an extra carton. The system will be delivered in two
parts (Fig. 7).
1.
Please put the two parts close together, so that the side elements fit into each other. You should always pay attention
on the direction marking (Fig. 8).
2.
The connection thorns have to be placed tight and flush into the side elements at the connection points 1 to 6
(Fig. 9 + 10).
3.
Lay the under frame on the existing slatted frame or inlay frame of your bed. Please pay attention to the label for the
head and foot section.
4.
Now lay the mattress on the under frame.
5.
The black fixation flaps of the mattress cover in the head and foot section must be flapped around the under frame
and closed with the zipper (Fig. 11).
6.
The under frame of ThevoautoActiv is safely fixed to the bed frame with the 6 belts. Thread the belts through the
bottom holes of the active side element and then around the tubular frame of the bed. Thread the belt through the
buckle and pull it tight. To release the belt, open the buckle and pull out the belt (Fig. 12).
Attention: If you have a height adjustable bed, please fix the belts to the lifting system.
7.
The system can now be individually adjusted to meet the needs of the respective patient.
8.
Check the settings after 24 hours at the latest and carry out eventually necessary changes.

Adjustment Options / Features
Standard setting at delivery
At the delivery of ThevoAutoactiv the adaptors and flexible fibreglass laths are set as shown on Fig. 13.
Adjusting the adaptors
In order to adjust the adaptors you have to grab under the mattress and pull the flexible fibreglass-track slightly upwards.
Now you can turn the adaptor to the required direction or rather remove it completely. Please ensure that the adaptor
grips tight into the stabiliser after every adjustment. Only in this case an unintended turning can be avoided (Fig. 14).
