IMPORTANT: Do not inflate or deflate one air chamber at a time.
When inflating or deflating, maintain a balanced air pressure
between air chambers to prevent stress or potential damage to the
inside diaphragms that separate the air chambers.

d.Attach the air hose adapter to the air valve.
e.Starting at one of the air valves, inflate each air chamber
in turn, inflating only a quarter of the way full. Repeat this
procedure to evenly fill the air chambers until the air
chambers are filled to the recommended air pressure of
0.25 bar (3.6 psi).
