What does the Ff code on the sunbeam electric blanket?
Just reseat the control plug at the base of the blanket with secure force. The main plug should be seated past the retainer catches on both sides of the plug. Then unplug the AC cord from the wall and replug to reset. This is a common problem for ALL Sunbeam electric blankets. The socket fits too tight and takes some strong-arm force to connect properly. Seems SB wanted to make sure you could not kick out the plug when sleeping.
What do you do if the sunbeam electric blanket says F2?
My cat has been burrowing under the covers lately, and soon, my side of the e- blanket started flashing F2, whereas my husbands did not. I unplugged the blanket itself, and both sides started to flash F2. Its my belief this is some sort of power disruption - whether its a short, or just a loose connection. I went to the sunbeam web page and found this answer to flashing F question... this was last updated in 2006, at which time the error was FF: The digital controls (SmartSense™, ChoicePlus™, StyleSmart™) 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.
Do you use your electric blanket and a comforter at the same time?
Can I use a woollen underlay or mattress protector with my electric blanket? Yes, if you have a Safe & Sound electric blanket manufactured in 2005 or later, it can be used in conjunction with an underlay, providing it does not have a heavy rubber backing. The underlay or mattress protector can be placed either on top of the electric blanket or underneath it. Please note that your electric blanket may take longer to heat up should you place the underlay over the top of it. If you have any other Sunbeam electric blanket (i.e. not Safe & Sound) or one manufactured before 2005, you should only place the underlay or mattress protector underneath the electric blanket. Placing a heavy underlay over the top of this type of blanket may trap the heat and inadvertently activate the safety overheat protection system, which cannot be reset. If using a magnetic underlay, you should check with the supplier of the underlay to ensure its effectiveness when used in conjunction with an electric blanket.
Should you use an electric blanket if you have a pacemaker?
