Reasons the product is recalled
Nimbus 4 and Nimbus Professional mattresses may over-inflate, due to an inner mattress component failure. This cannot be detected until the product is disassembled.
The hazards to consumers
If the mattress over-inflates, patients could fall from the mattress and this could result in serious injury.
What consumers should do
Affected consumers will be contacted in writing. Consumers should follow the instructions provided in the customer letter and the instructional video, to puncture the grommet membrane so that excess air may escape. Removing the membrane will not affect the mattress functionality in any way.
