Sunbeam’s SleepPerfect® Technology

Temperature-sensitive, fast-heating elements

All Sunbeam Feel Perfect electric throws feature our exclusive SleepPerfect ® technology. This technology uses a unique heating element that adjusts the heat level of your electric throw to maintain your selected setting. A built- in microprocessor continually senses changes in room and body temperature and adjusts the power input accordingly, to
provide a constant level of comfort.
The unique flexible heating element allows the fabric to drape around you, enabling the heated throw to be used on the lounge or your favorite armchair. This unique element also heats up to reach your selected temperature in just 10 minutes, so there’s no need for hours of preheating.

Nine levels of safety protection
A built-in microprocessor constantly senses the resistance of the heating wire and adjusts the power input accordingly. It senses any rise in temperature and reduces the power
supply to prevent overheating. In the unlikely event of a fault, the microprocessor senses the abnormal operation and automatically cuts off power to the throw.
A second microprocessor acts as a backup should the first fail. For additional safety protection, all Feel Perfect electric throw rugs contain a thermal backup fuse that is independent of the throw rug control. It detects any abnormal temperature variations in the heating element and automatically switches the throw-off to prevent overheating.

Using your heated throw

Using your heated throw
Your heated throw can be used on the lounge or in your favorite chair, providing cozy comfort wherever you need it. It can even be used on futons, adjustable beds, and waterbeds.
Connecting the control

Note: Ensure that the control is connected to the heated throw before inserting the plug into the power outlet. Connecting the power before attaching the control to the throw
