How do I set up my Somma waterbed?

Question

I have a full size Somma waterbed, and I was wondering which way the plastic tray thing goes, specifically which way is up?

Answer 1

the smooth side goes toward the bed the seam goes to the frame.fill with water then plug in the heater.make sure the liner is flat when  you are filling. any wrinklles will put presure on the water bed and could leak in time.good luck and if you have any more "?" email me and i will anwser them .i love waterbeds and would not trade mine for anything even my wife,"lol"

Answer 2

I have a king sized Somma waterbed with the liner tray and tubes.  The tray sets so that the tubes go vertically (head to toe) and the fill ends toward the bottom.  Then the vinyl tray liner goes over the top of the tray once you fill the tubes to your desired firmness.  Don't forget, to turn the top mattress now and again because that way you won't have to replace the foam in the pillow top as often.
