Important
Rapid wakening on hearing the alarm is vital for success but
G
parents believe that bed-wetting children are very heavy sleepers
so better results are obtained if parents help to wake the child
when the alarm sounds especially during the first few nights.
To avoid relapse use the alarm for at least 2 weeks after dryness
G
has been achieved. At the same time, increase fluid intake
before sleep to achieve over learning and avoid possibility of
relapsing at a later stage. Avoid fizzy drinks, tea, coffee and milk.
Use the progress chart. Great encouragement is derived by
G
seeing steady improvement.
Always praise the user for a dry night; never scold or chastise for
G
a wet night. Encouragement is the key to success.
Hints
The reset button will stop the alarm from sounding only if the
G
Bed-Mat is dry or disconnected.
The Bed-Mat positively locks to the alarm to prevent accidental
G
disconnection. However, it must be unlocked before attempting
to reset the alarm.
Please use a thicker cotton sheet or place a bath towel above
G
the Bed-Mat if sweating is triggering the alarm prematurely. Avoid
plastic and man-made fibres as they may cause static discharge
and false alarm. Reduce alarm sensitivity. (See diagram)
Treat the Bed-Mat with care. Avoid folding it or jumping over it.
G
Please replace the Bed-Mat with a new one if it has deteriorated
G
and use a new one with each child. (National Guidelines)
Please note that sleeping directly on an uncovered Bed-Mat or
G
touching it by hand may trigger the alarm.
Do not place plastic sheets directly under the Bed-Mat as
G
condensation may trigger the alarm.
