Safety


Q: What makes Sunbeam® Warming Products safe?
A: We test all of our products to ensure their safety. As the industry leader, Sunbeam Products Inc. is committed to providing consumers with the best products available and continuing research into safety issues. The wiring within Sunbeam® Warming Products is completely insulated and protected. To operate your product safely, we recommend that you:

  • Keep all pets off the product to avoid wire damage caused by chewing and/or clawing.
  • Follow instructions for care, including laundering.
  • Ensure the blanket or mattress pad is the right size for your bed.
  • Do not use on bunk beds, waterbeds or mechanically adjustable beds.
  • Make sure the cord is not trapped between the mattress and box spring.
  • Do not smoke in bed.
  • Do not use more than one heating device on the bed at one time.

For a complete description of these and other safety precautions, please review your User Manual.
