Understanding the Control

Beautyrest’s control allows personalized warmth with intuitive settings. Familiarize yourself with the panel for optimal use, ensuring comfort and safety throughout the night.

Control Panel Overview

The Beautyrest electric blanket’s control panel is designed for user-friendly operation. It typically features clearly labeled buttons for power, heat level selection, and timer settings. The digital display indicates the currently selected heat setting and remaining timer duration. Some models may include additional features like pre-heat or auto-off functions, accessible through dedicated buttons.

Familiarize yourself with the button layout and their corresponding functions before use. The power button initiates or terminates blanket operation. Heat level buttons allow you to adjust the warmth to your preference, often ranging from low to high. The timer button sets the duration for automatic shut-off, promoting safety and energy conservation.

Heat Setting Guide

Your Beautyrest electric blanket offers multiple heat settings to customize your comfort. Typically, settings range from 1 (low) to 10 (high), providing precise temperature control. Start with a lower setting, like 3 or 4, for gentle warmth, especially during sleep. Gradually increase the setting if more heat is desired, but avoid exceeding setting 7 for extended periods.

Setting 8-10 are ideal for quick pre-heating or intense warmth during colder nights. Remember that individual preferences vary, so experiment to find your optimal comfort level. Always prioritize safety and avoid using the highest settings for prolonged durations to prevent overheating or discomfort. Consider using a lower setting with the timer function for a cozy and safe experience.

Timer Functionality

The Beautyrest electric blanket’s timer function allows for convenient and safe operation. You can set the blanket to automatically turn off after a pre-determined period, ranging from 1 to 10 hours, depending on the model. This feature prevents overheating and conserves energy. To activate the timer, press the “Timer” button on the control panel and select your desired shut-off time.

The display will indicate the remaining time before the blanket turns off. Using the timer is particularly beneficial for pre-heating your bed before sleep or ensuring the blanket doesn’t remain on all night. Always check the control panel to confirm the timer is set correctly before use, promoting both comfort and safety.

Safety Precautions

Prioritize safety by carefully following all instructions to reduce risks of burns, shock, fire, or injury while enjoying your Beautyrest electric blanket.

Important Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before using your Beautyrest electric blanket. This appliance is intended for household use only. Never use while sleeping with infants, children, or individuals insensitive to heat.

Do not use with damaged cords or plugs. Avoid folding the blanket excessively, as this can damage the internal wiring. Never immerse the blanket or control in water.

Unplug when not in use and before washing. Do not use pins, needles, or sharp objects on the blanket. Always disconnect the controller before cleaning. This product is not intended for use by persons with disabilities without assistance.

Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Information ⸺ Secure Comfort Technology

Beautyrest electric blankets utilize Secure Comfort Technology, designed to virtually eliminate electromagnetic field (EMF) emissions. This technology minimizes your exposure to EMFs while enjoying the warmth and comfort of your blanket.

EMFs are present in the environment from various sources, and while the health effects are still being studied, Beautyrest prioritizes your well-being. The blanket’s construction, featuring specialized wiring and shielding, significantly reduces EMF levels.

This innovative feature provides peace of mind, allowing you to relax and enjoy a comfortable night’s sleep without EMF concerns.

Warnings and Cautions

Important: To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, or injury, always follow these safety guidelines. Never use the blanket if it shows signs of damage. Do not insert pins or other sharp objects into the blanket.

Avoid using with infants, incapacitated persons, or those insensitive to heat. Disconnect the blanket when not in use and before washing. Never dry clean. Do not use if wet.

Ensure the blanket’s controller is not covered during use. Always unplug before cleaning or storing. Misuse can result in serious injury or property damage.

Using Your Beautyrest Electric Blanket

Properly place the Beautyrest blanket on your bed, connect it securely, and follow recommended usage guidelines for optimal warmth and comfort.

Proper Placement on Bed

Beautyrest electric blankets are designed for use on a standard-sized bed, ensuring even heat distribution. Before placing, ensure the bed is dry and free of any sharp objects that could damage the blanket’s wiring.

Position the blanket so that the controller is easily accessible. Avoid tucking the blanket tightly around the mattress, as this can damage the internal wires. Leave some slack to allow for flexibility and prevent overheating in specific areas.

Ensure the blanket lies flat and is not bunched up or folded, as this can create hot spots. For optimal comfort and safety, avoid placing heavy objects on top of the blanket while in use.

Connecting and Disconnecting the Blanket

Before connecting your Beautyrest electric blanket, verify the voltage on the blanket’s label matches your outlet’s voltage. Gently insert the controller plug firmly into the blanket’s receptacle. Ensure a secure connection to prevent sparking or malfunction.

To disconnect, first turn the controller to the “Off” position. Then, grasp the controller plug – never pull on the cord itself – and remove it from the blanket’s receptacle.

Always unplug the blanket when not in use, before washing, and during storage. Avoid using extension cords; plug directly into a wall outlet for safe operation.

Recommended Usage Guidelines

For optimal comfort and safety, pre-warm your bed before use. Avoid using the blanket with infants, incapacitated persons, or those insensitive to heat. Never use pins, needles, or sharp objects on the blanket, as this could damage the wiring.

Do not fold or bunch the blanket excessively while in operation. It’s best to use the blanket as a supplemental heat source, not a primary one.

Avoid sitting or placing heavy objects on the blanket for extended periods. Always store the blanket loosely folded to prevent wire damage and ensure longevity.

Care and Maintenance

Beautyrest electric blankets require gentle care to maintain performance and longevity; follow washing, drying, and storage guidelines carefully for best results.

Washing Instructions

Before washing, always disconnect the Beautyrest electric blanket from the power outlet. It is crucial to remove the control completely before proceeding with the cleaning process.

Hand washing or machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent is recommended. Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and wiring.

Place the blanket inside a mesh laundry bag for added protection during machine washing. Ensure the blanket is fully submerged in water and avoid excessive agitation.

Rinse thoroughly to remove all traces of detergent. Do not wring or twist the blanket, as this can damage the internal wires. Gently press out excess water.

Drying Instructions

Never use a dryer to dry your Beautyrest electric blanket. Heat from a dryer can severely damage the internal wiring and pose a safety hazard.

Instead, lay the blanket flat on a clean, dry surface or hang it over a clothesline, avoiding direct sunlight or heat sources. Ensure the blanket is spread out evenly to prevent stretching or distortion.

Gently reshape the blanket while it’s still damp to maintain its original form.

Allow the blanket to air dry completely before reconnecting the control and using it. Confirm it is thoroughly dry to the touch before use, preventing potential electrical issues.

Storage Guidelines

When storing your Beautyrest electric blanket for extended periods, ensure it is completely clean and dry to prevent mildew or damage.

Loosely fold the blanket, avoiding tight creases that could harm the internal wiring.

Store it in a breathable bag, such as a cotton or linen bag, rather than a plastic container, to allow air circulation.

Keep the blanket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Avoid storing it with mothballs or other chemicals, and do not place heavy objects on top of it.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If your Beautyrest blanket isn’t heating or the control malfunctions, check the power connection and settings before consulting the warranty details.

Blanket Not Heating

If your Beautyrest electric blanket isn’t heating, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the blanket is securely plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Verify the outlet is receiving power by testing it with another device.

Next, check the control panel to confirm it’s switched on and a heat setting is selected. Sometimes, the simplest solution is the correct one! Also, inspect the cord for any visible damage, such as fraying or cuts, which could interrupt the power supply.

If the issue persists, confirm the auto-off timer hasn’t activated. Finally, if none of these steps resolve the problem, consult the warranty information for potential repair or replacement options.

Control Malfunctions

If you experience issues with the Beautyrest electric blanket’s control panel, begin by unplugging the blanket from the power outlet. This ensures safety while troubleshooting. Check for any physical damage to the control itself, like cracked buttons or a broken display.

Attempt to reset the control by unplugging the blanket for several minutes, then plugging it back in. If the display is unresponsive or buttons don’t function, avoid attempting self-repair.

Continued malfunctions suggest a potential internal issue. Do not use the blanket if the control is faulty. Refer to the warranty information for assistance and potential replacement options, as attempting repairs yourself could void the warranty and pose a safety risk.

Error Codes (If Applicable)

Your Beautyrest electric blanket’s control panel may display error codes to indicate specific issues. While not all models feature error codes, if present, they are crucial for diagnosing problems. Consult the specific model’s documentation – often available on the Beautyrest website – to decipher the meaning of each code.

Common codes might relate to sensor failures, overheating protection activation, or internal circuit errors. If an error code appears, immediately unplug the blanket and avoid continued use.

Attempting to operate the blanket with an active error code could cause further damage or pose a safety hazard. Contact Beautyrest customer support, referencing the error code, for guidance and potential repair or replacement options.
