Your SUNBEAM SLEEKSET Z85 has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm, do not use that outlet.

Please follow these directions in the order they are given to ensure your product will work correctly. Do not turn on the product until it has been fully assembled.

Step 1. Place the mattress pad/blanket on the bed with the label at the foot of the bed facing out.

Step 2. Connect the Control Cord connector and module securely until the plastic hinges click into place. CAUTION: The cord must be COMPLETELY CONNECTED. A risk of fire could result from a loose connection.

Step 3. Run the Control Cord on the floor under the bed. Do not sandwich the cord between the mattress and box spring. Avoid any tangling or pinching.

Step 4. Plug the Power Cord into a 110-120 volt wall outlet. Do not plug the main power cord into the wall outlet until you have completely set up your heated product. CAUTION: Do not use with generator power or inverter.
