If You Already Know Your Sleep Number
If you know what your Sleep Number is,
enter it on the remote by pressing the firmer or
softer buttons until your sleep number is dis-
played. The display screen will blink as the mat-
tress adjusts. Lie still until it stop blinking. There
may be some minor “clicking” as the final Sleep
Number setting is perfected. Once reached, the
remote will display your Sleep Number, then
shut itself off.
Finding Your Sleep Number - The Simple
Step-by-Step Process:
If you do not already know your Sleep Num-
ber or would like to experiment with finding a
different one, use the instructions below. It
sometimes take several nights of sleeping at dif-
ferent settings to discover your ideal Sleep Num-
ber.
STEP 1. Lie on your normal side of the bed in
your normal sleep position holding the
remote for your side of the bed.
STEP 2. Press the firmer or softer button on the
remote to “wake” it up. It will display
the current SLEEP NUMBER setting.
STEP 3. Start by setting the Sleep Number to 50
on the remote.
STEP 4: Take time to evaluate your comfort (see
diagrams below).
STEP 5: If you like the feel of the mattress at 50,
go to Step 6. If you find that this setting
is too firm or too soft, change your
Sleep Number in increments of 5. Re-
evaluate your comfort level after each
change. Once you have found a Sleep
Number setting where you feel comfort-
able, log this number into your Sleep
Journal.
STEP 6: Try to sleep at this Sleep Number for a
minimum of five nights. It will take
your body that long to become accus-
tomed to a new sleep surface. After five
nights, reevaluate your comfort level
and log this into your Sleep Journal. If
you need to make adjustments, repeat
Steps 5 and 6.
If you would like to experiment further with
your Sleep Number setting, just press the
Firmer/Softer button in the opposite direction
you are adjusting and the Firmness Control Sys-
tem will stop. Then go to the Sleep Number you
want.
If after trying four different Sleep Number
settings you have not found your ideal Sleep
Number, please call 1-800-318-2231 to reach a
trained Select Comfort Customer Service Repre-
sentative. They may be able to recommend
adjustments, make suggestions, or pinpoint con-
cerns that might be contributing to less than
ideal comfort.
Altering Your Sleep Number:
Unlike an innerspring mattress, a Sleep
Number bed can be personalized at any time to
the changing condition of your body. Some rea-
sons to alter your Sleep Number include:
•
strained muscles
•
back pain
•
weight change
•
bad sunburn
In addition to personalizing your bed for a
great night’s sleep, you can also alter the mat-
tress firmness when you wake in the morning in
order to:
•
assist getting out of bed, if needed
•
achieve a “fuller” bed appearance
