Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the setup, care, and maintenance of your ZINUS 5 Inch Memory Foam Mattress. Designed for comfort and support, this mattress is suitable for various compact spaces including bunk beds, trundle beds, day beds, and RVs. It features a green tea-infused memory foam layer for freshness and a supportive base foam for optimal sleep.
Setup and Unboxing
Your ZINUS mattress is efficiently compressed and rolled into a box for convenient shipping and handling. Follow these steps for proper setup:
- Preparation: Carefully remove the mattress from its shipping box. Ensure you have enough clear space for the mattress to expand.
- Unroll: Place the rolled mattress on your bed frame or a flat surface. Carefully cut open the outer plastic wrapping.
- Expand: Unroll the compressed mattress. It will begin to expand immediately. Remove the inner plastic layer.
- Full Expansion: Allow 24 to 72 hours for the mattress to fully expand to its original shape and firmness. Factors like room temperature and humidity can affect expansion time. Walking or gently crawling on the mattress can help accelerate the decompression process.

Product Features and Components
The ZINUS 5 Inch Memory Foam Mattress is constructed with multiple layers to provide optimal comfort and support:
- Green Tea Memory Foam: Infused with green tea extract to help maintain freshness and conform to the natural curves of your body for customized pressure relief.
- Comfort Foam: An additional layer of foam designed to provide enveloping comfort and soothe joints.
- High-Density Base Support Foam: A durable foundation layer that maintains strong structure and edge support for long-term dependability. This layer also features wave dynamics construction to increase airflow.
- Jacquard Cover: The mattress is encased in a soft and breathable terry fabric cover with a moisture barrier to protect against spills and messes.

Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your ZINUS mattress:
- Cover Care: The mattress cover is designed for easy maintenance. For cleaning, the care instructions specify Hand Wash Only. Do not machine wash or bleach.
- Spills: In case of spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not saturate the mattress with liquids.
- Ventilation: Allow the mattress to air out periodically, especially during the initial expansion period, to dissipate any new foam odors.
- Rotation: Rotate your mattress head-to-foot every 3-6 months to promote even wear and extend its lifespan. This mattress is not designed to be flipped.
- Support: Ensure your mattress is placed on a suitable, sturdy bed frame or foundation that provides adequate support across the entire surface.
Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common concerns you might encounter:
- Mattress Not Fully Expanded: It can take up to 72 hours for the mattress to fully decompress. Ensure the room temperature is moderate (around 68-72°F or 20-22°C) as cooler temperatures can slow expansion. Gentle movement on the mattress can also aid the process.
- New Foam Odor: A faint odor, often described as a "new foam" smell, is normal and harmless. This is common with compressed foam products and will dissipate within a few days to a week. Ensure good ventilation in the room.
- Feeling Bed Frame Slats: If you feel the bed frame slats through the mattress, it indicates insufficient support. Memory foam mattresses require a solid or closely slatted foundation (slats no more than 3 inches apart) to prevent sagging and provide proper support. Consider adding a bunkie board or plywood layer between the mattress and the slats.
