2. Safety Information
- Keep Packaging Away from Children: The plastic wrapping can pose a suffocation hazard. Dispose of all packaging materials immediately and responsibly.
- Ventilation: Memory foam mattresses may have a slight odor upon unboxing. This is normal and harmless. Allow the mattress to air out in a well-ventilated room for 24 to 72 hours.
- Heavy Item: The mattress can be heavy. Use proper lifting techniques or seek assistance when moving the boxed or unrolled mattress to prevent injury.
- Flammability: Keep the mattress away from open flames or other ignition sources.
3. Setup Instructions
Your Sealy mattress is conveniently delivered in a box, compressed and rolled for easy transport. Follow these steps for proper setup:
- Move the Box: Carefully move the boxed mattress to the desired room where it will be used. The box can be heavy, so consider using a dolly or getting assistance.
- Unbox the Mattress: Place the box on its side near your bed frame. Open the box and slide the compressed mattress out.
- Unroll onto Base: Carefully unroll the vacuum-sealed mattress onto your chosen bed base (see 'Usage' section for compatible bases).
- Remove Plastic: Carefully cut and remove the outer plastic layers. The mattress will begin to expand immediately.
- Allow to Expand: Allow 24 to 72 hours for the mattress to fully regain its shape and firmness. Memory foam expands faster in warmer environments.

5. Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Sealy mattress.
- Mattress Protector: Use a high-quality mattress protector to shield against spills, stains, and allergens.
- Cleaning: Spot clean any spills immediately with a mild detergent and water. Avoid saturating the mattress. Do not use harsh chemicals.
- Rotation: Rotate your mattress 180 degrees every 3-6 months to promote even wear and extend its lifespan. This mattress is not designed to be flipped.
- Ventilation: Periodically remove bedding to allow the mattress to air out, helping to prevent moisture buildup.
6. Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common concerns you might encounter with your memory foam mattress:
- Odor upon Unboxing: A new memory foam mattress may have a faint, harmless odor (off-gassing). This typically dissipates within 24-72 hours in a well-ventilated room.
- Mattress Not Fully Expanded: Allow up to 72 hours for full expansion. Ensure the room temperature is not too cold, as memory foam expands faster in warmer conditions.
- Feeling Too Firm/Soft: Initial feel can vary. Give your body time to adjust to the new mattress, typically a few weeks. Room temperature can also affect firmness; cooler temperatures make memory foam feel firmer.
- Heat Retention: While the CopperChill infusion helps, some individuals may still experience warmth. Ensure your bedding is breathable and your room is adequately cooled.
