MATTRESS 

 

Akva mattresses contain vinyl with phthalate-free softener to guarantee long durability and good 

environmental properties. Read these user instructions thoroughly before assembly. 

 

Filling with water 

 

Before filling the mattress with water it must be of room temperature. 

 

How to fill a single mattress with water: 

 

 

Place the mattress in the bed frame, with the valve at the foot end. 

 

Pull up the valve, unscrew the cover and tilt the plug up with your nail.  

 

It is important to fit the corners of the mattress exact into the bed frame. 

 

Fill the mattress with cold water. Use a clean hose. As a general rule the mattress should be filled 

with water up to the upper edge of the bed frame minus approx. 1/3 of the user’s weight. For 

example, if the user weighs 60 kg 20 litres is removed from the bed when it is filled to the edge  

(= approx. 2 cm below the top edge of the side.) This is normally equivalent to a person lying 

horizontally in the bed, with optimum lying comfort 

 

Before removing the air from the water mattress, place a towel round the valve to soak up any 

splashing. Now remove the air from the water mattress by squeezing the air out through the 

valve.  Start at the head end and squeeze towards the valve. Lie across the mattress, if necessary, 

and roll slowly towards the valve. When all the air has been removed from the mattress the 

surface may have folds – this is immaterial. 

 

Add the bactericide and algicide Long Life. 

 

Press remaining air if any out through the valve. Insert the plug, screw on the cover and press 

down the valve until levelling with the mattress. 

 

Connect the 220-240 V heating element and set the thermostat to the desired temperature. 

 

The bed is ready for use once it has warmed-up. 

 

How to fill a dual set of mattresses with water: 

 

 

Place the mattress in the bed frame, with the valve at the foot end. 

 

Pull up the valve, unscrew the cover and tilt the plug up with your nail.  

 

It is important to fit the corners of the mattress exact into the bed frame. 

 

Fill the mattress with cold water.  Use a clean hose. Fill the mattresses by turns. Be careful that 

the divider stays in place when the mattresses are filled by turns. As a general rule the mattress 

should be filled with water up to the upper edge of the bed frame, minus approx. 1/3 of the user’s 

weight. For example, if the user weighs 60 kg 20 litres is removed from the bed when it is filled to 

the edge (= approx. 2 cm below the top edge of the side.) This is normally equivalent to a person 

lying horizontally in the bed, with optimum lying comfort.  

 

Before removing the air from the water mattress, place a towel round the valve to soak up any 

splashing. Now remove the air from the water mattress by squeezing the air out through the 

valve.  Start at the head end and squeeze towards the valve.  Lie across the mattress, if 

necessary, and roll slowly towards the valve. When all the air has been removed from the mattress 

the surface may have folds – this is immaterial. 

 

Add the bactericide and algicide Long Life. 

 

Press remaining air if any out through the valve. Insert the plug, screw on the cover and press 

down the valve until levelling with the mattress. 

 

Connect the 220-240 V heating element and set the thermostat to the desired temperature. 

 

The bed is ready for use once it has warmed-up. 

 

How to fill a water divider with water: 

 

 

Pull up the valve of the divider, unscrew the cover and tilt up the plug with your nail.  

 

Fill up the divider with water to the marking.  

 

Remove the surplus of air using an Airextractor 

 

Add the bactericide and algicide tablet, Waterbeds Conditioner Tablets
