3. Check whether the tracheal joints under the mattress are well connected to keep the inflation normal.
4. Pay attention to pressure control when inflating, and can not exceed the maximum pressure to prevent the airbag from being inflated due to excessive pressure.
5. Pay attention to keep the mattress clean and hygienic, often use neutral detergent to clean the surface, and pay attention to acid and alkali resistance. Store in a dry and ventilated place, pay attention to moisture.
6. After one-time inflation, the air bed will be a little loose. This is a normal phenomenon. The material of the air bed is somewhat elastic. Don't get too full.
7. One person can use enough gas, and two people use it to let out some gas; the temperature rises in the seasonal change, and the gas in the bed expands, pay attention to deflation.
