Setup Instructions

1. Unpack the Blanket: Carefully remove the blanket and controllers from the packaging.
2. Position the Blanket: Lay the heated blanket flat on your bed, ensuring it is spread out evenly without any folds or bunches. The blanket should be placed directly on top of your mattress pad or sheet.
3. Connect the Controller(s): For Queen and King sizes, your blanket comes with two controllers. Locate the connector ports on the blanket and firmly plug in the controller cords. Ensure a secure connection.
4. Plug into Power: Plug the power cord(s) from the controller(s) into a standard 110-120V AC electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is easily accessible.
5. Controller Placement: Place the controller(s) in a convenient location where they will not be covered by other bedding or objects.

Operating Instructions

Your Beautyrest Heated Electric Blanket features an intuitive controller with multiple settings for personalized comfort.

1. Power On/Off: Press the 'Power' button to turn the blanket on or off. The LED indicator will illuminate when the blanket is active.
2. Adjust Heat Settings: Use the '+' and '-' buttons to cycle through the 20 available heat settings. Start with a lower setting and adjust as needed for your desired warmth. The temperature range is approximately 85°F - 105°F (actual temperature may vary based on room conditions).
3. Pre-Heat Function: Press the 'Pre-Heat' button to activate a 1-hour pre-heat cycle. This feature quickly warms the blanket before you get into bed. After 1 hour, the blanket will automatically revert to your last selected heat setting.
4. Auto Shut-Off Timer: Press the 'Sleep' button to set the auto shut-off timer. You can select a duration from 1 to 10 hours in 1-hour increments. The blanket will automatically turn off after the selected time has elapsed.
5. Dual Controllers (Queen/King): For Queen and King size blankets, each side has an independent controller, allowing two users to customize their individual heat settings and shut-off times.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your heated blanket. This blanket is machine washable.

1. Before Washing: Always disconnect the controller(s) from the blanket and unplug the power cord(s) from the wall outlet.
2. Pre-Soak (Optional): For best results, pre-soak the blanket for 15 minutes in mild soap and cold water.
3. Machine Wash: Wash on the 'delicate' or 'gentle' cycle in a washing machine with cold water and a small amount of mild, non-bleach detergent. Do not use bleach.
4. Rinse: Rinse on the 'normal' cycle.
5. Machine Dry: Tumble dry on low heat for 5-10 minutes to remove excess moisture. Do not use high heat.
6. Air Dry: Remove the blanket from the dryer while still damp and drape it over a clothesline or shower rod to air dry completely. Ensure the blanket is fully dry before reconnecting the controller(s) or storing.
7. Storage: Store the blanket loosely folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid tightly folding or placing heavy objects on the blanket, which can damage the internal wiring.

This blanket is OEKO-TEX certified, meaning it has been tested for harmful substances and is safe for human ecological requirements.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your heated blanket, refer to the following common solutions:

• Blinking Light on Controller: If the controller light is blinking, unplug the blanket from the wall outlet and disconnect the controller from the blanket. Reconnect both securely and plug the blanket back into the outlet. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
• Blanket Not Heating Well: Ensure the blanket is powered on and set to a sufficiently high heat level. Allow adequate time for the blanket to reach the desired temperature, as heating can be gradual.
• Only Parts of the Blanket are Warming: This often indicates a bunched or pinched heating element. Lay the blanket completely flat, ensuring it is untucked and free from any heavy objects. Gently run your fingers along the blanket to straighten any twisted or bunched heating wires. Pay close attention to the top and bottom edges where wires may bend. If any portion of the wire is twisted on itself, manually untwist it.
