Maintenance and Care

Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your Serta Heated Mattress Pad.

• Machine Washable: The mattress pad is conveniently machine washable. Always disconnect the controller and power cord before washing. Follow the care instructions on the product label for best results.
• Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry. Ensure the pad is completely dry before reconnecting the controller and using it.
• Storage: To prolong the life of your electric mattress pad, it is recommended to roll the mattress pad rather than folding it when storing it at the end of the season. Do not compress it or place heavy objects on top of it, as this can damage the internal heating wires and affect functionality. Store in a cool, dry place.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Serta Heated Mattress Pad, refer to the following common solutions:

• Controller Light Blinking: If the light on your controller is blinking, first unplug the mattress pad from the wall outlet. Then, ensure the controller is securely connected to the mattress pad. Plug it back in. If the issue persists, please contact customer support.
• Controller Feels Warm to the Touch: It is normal for the controller to feel warm, but not hot, to the touch during operation. This is due to small amounts of electricity cycling through it. If the controller becomes excessively hot or emits a burning smell, immediately unplug it and contact customer support.
• No Heat or Uneven Heat: Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet and the controller is firmly connected to the pad. Check the heat setting on the controller. If the problem continues, ensure the pad is not folded or bunched up, which can prevent even heat distribution.
