What’s in the box

Please identify and inspect the contents of your package. Inside the box you should find the following items:

• SleepHub™ main unit
• Two speakers
• Two RCA cables (1 x 5m and 1 x 2m)

Unboxing the SleepHub

Unpacking the SleepHub
Place the SleepHub box securely on a stable surface and lift the top in one smooth motion. Remove the individual SleepHub components from the packaging and store them securely.
Ensure that there is plenty of space to install the SleepHub, including the main unit and both speakers, and that there is a suitable power outlet near the bed or location where you intend to install the SleepHub.
Ideally, to achieve optimal sound balance and performance, the intended installation location should allow you to place the speakers on either side of the user’s sleeping position.  The speakers can be placed on either side of the bed, facing the bed, or behind the bed. Ensure that each speaker is placed on either side of the person who will be using the device as they sleep, so that person is lying in the field of sound for each speaker.
**** Ensure that all of the SleepHub is securely installed, in a location that should not leave it or those using the SleepHub, exposed to falls, trips, spillages, water, or any other form of accidental damage.

Installing the SleepHub

Connecting the SleepHub

• Connect the speakers to the main unit using the RCA cables.
• The 2m cable should be connected to the speaker closest to the main unit
• The 5m cable should be connected to the speaker furthest from the main unit
• Plug the power adapter into a wall socket and connect it to the main unit

**** Ensure that all of the SleepHub cables are securely installed, making sure that they are not likely to cause a trip hazard or any other form of accidental damage.

Connecting the SleepHub
Caution!
Risk of product damage:
Always make sure that the outlet power supply and voltage correspond to the voltage printed on the underside of the SleepHub
Risk of electric shock:
**** Always pull from the plug, when removing it from the socket.
Never pull the cable

Connecting to the internet
To ensure that your SleepHub™ is always up to date with the latest software and operating at peak performance, it is advised that you should keep it connected to your local WiFi network at all times.

• On the home screen (below), tap the settings button to access the settings menu

Connecting to the internet

Introducing the SleepHub

Introducing the Sleep Screen

From the home screen (see page 9), swipe from left to right, to access the Sleep Screen (above). Your SleepHub now displays each of your choices, regarding the setup of your sleep mode. From here, you can easily access the sleeping mode, soundscape, and alarm menus.
You can also access the SleepHub™ settings menu, to make further adjustments to the sounds, including balance, and volumes.
Depending on the soundscape you choose, a related image will display as the background to your home screen, until the screen fades to black.

Sleep sound and Soundscapes

Sleep sound and Soundscape volumes
SleepHub™ helps you to achieve quality sleep through scientifically formulated sounds that use rhythms and pulses to simulate the waves your brain should produce through each sleep cycle. We call this the sleep sound.
The sleep sound should be set so you can hear it clearly, but faintly. You may choose to sleep with this sound only without playing a soundscape. Where you choose to play a  soundscape, it should be set at a volume that is slightly lower than the sleep sound – you should still be able to hear the sleep sound above the soundscape. To set the volume  levels that best suit you:

1. Tap the settings button on the home screen to access the settings menu
2.  Tap Volume Control on the settings screen
3. Adjust the individual volume levels by moving the sliders up or down

Please note that you may need to try different levels during your initial sleep periods to find your optimal balance. The following levels will provide a useful starting point:

Master volume : 45 – 55
Soundscape: 50
Sleep sound : 55
Alarm: 50
Balance: 0 (sound will be evenly distributed between both speakers)

Finding the right setup

You may also find, that external factors, such as nutrition, exercise, stress, etc, may provoke changes in your expected sleep experience. As you embark on your journey towards improved sleep, it is advised that you keep a sleep journal, to help track changes, and improve habits.
Towards to back of this downloadable PDF, you will find some blank pages, that should help you take notes, and get started. Record your experiences, and as you progress on your journey, you should be able to see what improvements you have observed.

Getting the most from your SleepHub

Our research has shown that some people report benefits of using SleepHub™ within a few days, while others experience improvements in their sleep over several weeks.
Through regular and repeated use of your SleepHub™, you could typically expect to feel more relaxed at bedtime, drift off to sleep more easily, wake up less and if you do, get back to sleep faster. In turn, you are likely to experience a better quality of sleep which might result in you feeling less tired during the day and having lower stress levels.
At first, you may experience more dreaming than usual, due to deeper quality of sleep in all stages, including REM. This is normal and should subside once your new sleep pattern has been established.
Don’t forget that other factors such as nutrition, exercise, and your sleep environment will also affect how well you sleep. We recommend keeping a sleep journal to help you track your progress.
