Tables
1. Sequence of tests with primary ignition sources:
    mattress, divan or bed base tested alone
2. Position of ignition source: mattress tested from
    below with primary ignition sources
3. Sequence of tests with secondary sources: mattress,
    divan or bed base tested with known bedcovers
4. Position of ignition source: mattress together with
    known bedcovers, tested from below
