1. Fitting the Mattress Topper
Place the TropiCool mattress topper on top of your mattress with the connection (3) at the foot or head of the bed depending on your preferred layout and the location of the unit(s). Secure the mattress topper with the elasticated straps at each corner §Note Below and place a sheet or mattress protector over the topper (1). Attach the female socket MT2(1) into the mail connection (3) at the opposite end using the male connection (2) attach into the female socket MT3(1)

2. Positioning
To fit the cooling and heating blanket place on your mattress with the connectors either at the bottom or the top of the bed depending on your layout i.e. if the control unit is to sit at the head or the foot of the bed.
Face the blanket either way up this does not affect the efficiency. Secure the blanket by attaching elasticated straps in each corner over your existing mattress once fitted cover with a mattress topper or a single sheet or both. (Important do not use in conjunction with any electric blanket)
If you have purchased a double blanket with the solo unit you can attach the tube to either side of the blanket depending on user preference. Only one side of the bed will be cooled or heated, at the end of each tube is a connector which has a valve so it is safe to remove the tube with fluid in it however we would advise against leaving fluid in the blanket for long periods and would instead suggest you use the drain key to remove water if not in use for extended periods. If required additional control units can be purchased separately which will turn a double mattress with the solo unit into a Companion model giving users on either side of the mattress personalised heating or cooling functionality; please email us for details.
§ If fitting a solo TropiCool mattress onto a double/king-size bed.
Leave the elasticated straps loose positioned underneath the mattress the silicon matrix enclosed within the mattress will keep the TropiCool mattress in place on the bed if however, if you experience a problem please contact us and we will send you a simple kit to rectify this.
3. Connecting Pad Tube and Control Unit.
IMPORTANT Push all connectors in firmly until they click and lock into place. The flow will automatically stop if the tube is disconnected
a) Connect the male plug on the tube CN1(1) also MT2(2) with the female socket (2) on the control unit. See CN2 correctly fitted.
b) Connect the female socket on the tube CN3(1) also MT2(1) with the male plug (2) on the mattress pad. See CN4 correctly fitted.

♠(NB) SLEEP MODE (3) this will switch on the ambient temperature mode whereby after ONE HOUR TropiCool will automatically set your cooling or heating temperature to a factory adjusted AMBIENT temperature of between 31° C and 36° C. If cooling was previously selected then the temperature will steadily increase until it reaches 31° C if heating was previously selected the temperature will gradually fall to 36° C These are considered comfortable nighttime sleeping temperatures and will not overwork the HC unit over long periods in ambient mode the fan speed is greatly reduced and only speeds up if the thermostat needs to readjust the HC units temperature. If you wish to use this function press SLEEP MODE (3) then ENTER (6) to confirm. To cancel this mode at any time you can increase or decrease the temperature by pressing the up or down arrow. |

Maintenance |
A. Cleaning: Regularly clean dirt and dust off the fan protector on the front of the control unit. Clean the dirt off inside the window of the Control Unit. If this builds up it affects the efficiency of the unit. The user can take off the fan lid off to clean or wash, dry and then refit to the control unit.
B. Emptying water from the control unit and mattress:
If the system has not been used for an extended period of time we recommend flushing the water and refilling with fresh.
To do this turn on the control unit and let the water circulate in the mattress for 2 to 3 minutes before disconnecting pipe, topper and control unit, then empty the water using the plastic key to release the valves on the tube and the unit making sure you have to drain the water into. Once empty, refill the tank with new water connect tubes and mattress topper to circulate the freshwater topping up as the reservoir falls.
