There are several activities that must be performed regularly, the transition to summer time, replace the batteries of the smoke detector and obviously the rotation of the mattress. In spring it rotates horizontally, while in autumn it turns upside down.

Advice

  • Turn your mattress over at least once a month.
  • If you prefer, you can start by turning your mattress horizontally once a month.

Warnings

  • When you turn the mattress over, pay attention to the objects around you, including bedside tables, lamps, chandeliers or radiators.
  • Not all mattresses require turning or flipping. Look at the label carefully.
  • Some mattresses are labeled 'Upper Side' (or a similar wording) indicating that they cannot be turned over, but can only be turned.
  • The movement required to overturn a mattress can cause pain and injuries to the lumbar muscles of the back. Do not make sudden movements and always proceed with the utmost caution. Doing the maneuver correctly shouldn't have any repercussions.
