Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly fill your Mediflow Water Pillow:
- Unpack the Pillow: Remove the pillow and all included components (instruction sheet, cap, funnel) from the packaging.
- Locate the Water Bladder Opening: On the back of the pillow, locate the screw cap for the water bladder. Unscrew and remove the cap.
- Insert Funnel: Place the provided funnel securely into the opening of the water bladder.
- Fill with Water: Slowly pour tap water into the funnel. The amount of water determines the pillow's firmness (refer to the Operating Instructions section for recommended volumes).
- Remove Excess Air: Once the desired water level is reached, gently squeeze the pillow to push out any trapped air from the bladder. This prevents sloshing sounds and ensures consistent support.
- Secure the Cap: Remove the funnel and firmly screw the cap back onto the bladder opening. Ensure it is tightly sealed to prevent leaks.
- Position the Pillow: Place the pillow on your bed with the water bladder side facing down.

Operating Instructions: Adjusting Firmness
The Mediflow Water Pillow is fully adjustable to suit your personal comfort preference. You can customize the firmness and height by varying the amount of water in the bladder.
- Soft Support: For a softer pillow, fill the water bladder with approximately 2 liters of water.
- Medium Support: For medium firmness, use approximately 3 liters of water.
- Firm Support: For a firmer pillow, fill with approximately 4-5 liters of water.
Experiment with different water levels to find the ideal support that aligns with your sleeping position and comfort needs. The water within the bladder will conform to the shape of your head and neck, providing consistent support throughout the night, even as you change positions.

Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Mediflow Water Pillow:
- Cleaning: The pillow cover and fiber fill can be hand washed and dried. Ensure the water bladder is securely sealed before cleaning. Do not machine wash or dry the entire pillow with the water bladder inside.
- Water Replacement: It is recommended to replace the water in the bladder annually to maintain hygiene and optimal performance.
- Leak Prevention: Always ensure the water bladder cap is tightly sealed after filling or adjusting water levels.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Mediflow Water Pillow, consider the following solutions:
- Pillow feels too firm or too soft: Adjust the water volume in the bladder. Refer to the "Operating Instructions" section for recommended water levels for soft, medium, and firm support. Small adjustments can make a significant difference.
- Sloshing sound from the pillow: This indicates that air is trapped inside the water bladder. Unscrew the cap, gently squeeze the pillow to expel all air, and then securely re-seal the cap.
- Discomfort or neck pain: The water level might not be optimal for your sleeping position or body type. Experiment with adding or removing small amounts of water until you find the most comfortable and supportive setting. Ensure the pillow is positioned correctly with the water bladder facing down.
- Suspected leak: Immediately check that the water bladder cap is tightly secured. If a leak persists, inspect the bladder for any visible damage. If damage is found, contact customer support.
