2.1 Unpacking and Initial Inflation

1. Unroll the MegaMat Auto from its SideWinder stuff sack. Lay it flat in your desired sleeping area within the vehicle.
2. Locate the inflate valves (marked 'IN') at both the head and foot ends of the mat. Open both inflate valves.
3. Allow the mat to self-inflate for approximately 10-20 minutes. The open-cell foam will expand and draw air into the mat.
4. Once the mat has largely self-inflated, close the inflate valves.

2.2 Adjusting Firmness with the Top-Up Pump

1. Attach the included Top-Up Pump to one of the inflate valves.
2. Use the pump to add additional air until your desired firmness is achieved. The mat can be adjusted from firm to plush.
3. Remove the pump and ensure the inflate valve is securely closed.
