Frequently Asked Questions OF YOUR WARMING PRODUCT
Q Who should NOT use the heated blanket, heated mattress pad or warming throw?
A The following people should NOT use the heated blanket, heated mattress pad
or warming throw:
• An infant
• A child
• An incapacitated person
• A paraplegic
• A quadriplegic
• A diabetic
• Anyone insensitive to heat such as a person with poor blood circulation
• Anyone who cannot clearly understand the instructions and/or operate the controls
Q What do the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) or (ETL) labels mean? What do either of these
labels mean about safety of Sunbeam warming products?
A Underwriters Laboratories (UL) develops product safety standards for a large range of
products and performs independent tests based on these standards. Products tested by UL
and which have passed all the safety standards are permitted to bear the UL label. Intertek
Testing Services (ETL) is a certified, independent testing organization that tests products in
accordance with UL safety standards and issues the ETL label for those products that meet
the relevant UL standards. All Sunbeam® products are tested to UL standards and bear
either the UL or ETL label to indicate that the product meets or exceeds UL/ETL safety
standards for warming products.
Q I have heard that some warming products have EMFs.
What is this?
A EMF stands for Electromagnetic Field. This is an electrical field that surrounds any wire
that has current flowing along its length. Although several studies have been conducted to
evaluate the impact, EMFs have not been proven to be harmful. In any event, Sunbeam® has
reduced the strength of EMFs in its blankets/mattress pads/throws to very low levels.
Q What do I do if my pet chews the cord, I lose my control or the control does not operate
properly?
A Please stop using the warming product immediately. Call our Consumer Service number
listed under How to Obtain Warranty Service and ask for instructions on how and where to
send the warming product.
Q My control feels warm to the touch. Is this a problem?
A No. The control will feel warm to the touch when functioning properly.

For questions or support, please visit: www.sunbeam.com

Q My heated blanket/heated mattress pad/warming throw doesn’t heat properly.
A Your warming product is not a heating pad. It will not feel hot to the touch when laid out
flat in a normal manner. Try the following fold test to see if it is operating properly:
1 Fold the heated blanket, heated mattress pad or warming throw 3 times over.
2 Make sure the control cord is connected to the module and then
plug the power cord into an outlet.
3 Turn on your warming product, then turn the control to the highest
setting and wait 5 to 7 minutes.
4 Put your hand between the folds and you should feel the blanket/
mattress pad/throw warming up.
Caution: DO NOT continue the test for more than 7 minutes. DO NOT
attempt to make any internal adjustments to this appliance. If you have tried all of the
solutions above and the warming product still doesn’t work, stop using it immediately,
disconnect the power cord and contact Sunbeam Consumer Care.
Q What does “FF” mean on my Electronic Digital Control?
A

The digital controls are designed to notify you in the event that a problem has been
discovered by flashing “FF” on the display. Follow instructions on the flag tag to reset
control. First, check the blanket/mattress pad for visual damage. If no visual damage
is found, unplug the system from wall outlet. Check that the control is
well-connected to the module. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
Set the control to “On.” If the system still does not operate after 2 or 3
times trying to reset, disconnect the power cord and contact Sunbeam
Consumer Care.
