Earthing Elite™ Sleep Mat Kit

Step 1: Check Your Outlets Are Earthed with our Socket Tester

In order to use your Earthing product, you must connect it to the “earth port” of an earthed 3 prong outlet (PowerPoint). Before plugging in your Earthing product, check that the outlet is earthed by plugging in the Socket Tester. Three orange lights illuminated is GOOD and means that you have a proper earth and you are ready to connect your Earthing product. Any other light combination means your outlet is NOT properly earthed. Try testing another outlet. If it still doesn’t work, then you will need to use a grounding rod in the optional step 2 below. Please Note: In Australia, it is compulsory by law to have all electrical power outlets Earthed, however, if in doubt for any reason it is easy to check with our socket tester which is inclusive in all our Starter Packs, otherwise you can purchase individually – please click here to order.

Step 2: (Optional) Using The Ground Rod When Outlets Aren't Earthed:

a. First Push the Ground Rod directly into the earth around 20cm to 25cm, close to the foundation of the building and where vegetation is growing or the area is damp.

b. Run the cord from the Ground Rod, under or around a window or door, near where you will be using your product.

c. Make sure to cover the cord to prevent tripping.

d. Plug the prong end of your cord into the receptacle end of the Ground Rod cord. If you live in a dry area, such as a desert, soak the earth around the Ground Rod from time to time for maximum conductivity.

You can order your ground rod here.

Step 3: Setting Up The Sleep mat

a. Place the mat on your mattress under a fitted sheet with smooth, leather-like material directly under the sheet – this is the conductive side. Use the straps to secure the mat directly to your mattress and to hold it in place.

b. Insert the pin end of the Earthing cord into the grey adapter plug supplied, then the plug into a properly earthed wall outlet. Power does not need to be switched on.

c. Connect the snap end of the Earthing cord to the press stud on the mat.

d. Test the Sleep Mat with the product tester to make sure the green light comes on and everything is connected.

e. Replace your standard fitted sheet.

f. When you lie down on the sheet/mat, it may take several minutes for Earthing to take place depending on your perspiration level, the thickness of clothes or sheet and your hydration levels.

Step 4: How To Test For Conductivity With The Product Continuity Tester:

The purpose of the tester is to verify that your Earthing mat is conductive. The Product Tester is an Optional Accessory - you can order here.

a. Firstly verify that the Product Tester itself is operational by pressing the button that says “press” and release—the small light on the front will flash green one time then goes off. Indicates tester is good. If no green light battery (Lithium CR2032) may be flat or unit faulty.

b. Snap Coil Cord included onto Product Tester’s metal press stud, if not already assembled.

c. Insert your grey Earthing Adapter Plug into the power outlet you intend to use with your product.

d. Insert prong end of Product Tester Cord into one receptacle of the adapter plug

e. Plug Earthing cord from Sleep Mat into the other receptacle. You should now have both the Earthing Sleep Mat and Tester connected to the plug that is in a power outlet.

f. Place product tester flat on the mat. The round metal plate must be in contact with the surface of the mat. Press firmly on the mat to obtain a good contact and press down on the "Press" button. A green light means that the sheet is in working order. In the unlikely case that no green light comes on, the mat may be defective or has lost conductivity and should be replaced – you should also check your connecting cords to make sure they are conductive as well (see below).

Sometimes, people have difficulty testing their products. If the light doesn’t come on, place one hand on the mat while holding the tester in the other hand and with one finger on the silver button on the back of tester. A green light would show that the body is grounded when touching the matt. Make sure that both the tester and the mat are plugged into the earth, as described above. The reason for perhaps the light not going on: you aren't pressing hard enough on the tester. You can also put some moisture on your fingertips to create better contact.

g. Disconnect product tester from the adapter plug. However, it is fine to leave plugged in to test when needed later on

h. You don’t have to test your mat often. Perhaps after cleaning. The more you use the tester, the sooner the batteries in the tester will expire, replace the battery (Lithium CR2032) by unscrewing the back panel. Test Your Product Cords For Conductivity: Replace the coil cord already on the product tester with the cord to be tested. Touch the metal pin of the testing cord to the back of the metal disk on the tester Hold down and press the “Press” button for at least 3 seconds. A green light indicates that the cord is in good working order.

Step 6: How Care For Your Earthing Sleep Mat

To clean the mat, simply wipe down using a damp cloth or sponge periodically.  A mild soap may be used, however, do not use any household products like furniture polish or ArmorAll as it will cause the mat to lose conductivity.  Do not soak in water or wash in a washing machine.

Do not apply lotions, creams, or oils to the skin before bedtime on parts of your body that will be in direct contact with the Earthing mat. Such substances oxidize and can damage conductivity. Air-dry the mat only.

Your mat should be kept flat with no creases so please check regularly as continual pressure on creases will cause the mat to wear and possibly tear in that area.

• Covers a Single or King Single mattress. 
• Can be placed vertically (head to toe) on ANY size mattress: This allows just one person to be grounded on a larger mattress if the second person doesn’t wish to be grounded.
• Can be placed horizontally on ANY size mattress: This allows two people to be in contact with the mat by running it vertically across the mattress. (This is a great option for couples on a budget, although neither partner will be maximizing their connection.)
• Excellent for taking with you while you travel if you’re uncertain what size mattress you’ll be sleeping on.
• Makes for a great gift if you are unsure of the recipient’s bed size. 

The Earthing Sleep Mat should be used under any fitted sheet for sleeping.  It measures 67cm x 213 cm

• Full Instructions

Our non-toxic Earthing® mats are made from our patented conductive carbon leatherette. The leatherette is a composite of Polyurethane (PU) resin infused with a conductive carbon pigment. It has a buttery soft feel akin to vegan leather. It has been 3rd party tested to be free of lead, Azo dyes, and phthalates.

Polyurethane (PU): This material is what makes the Earthing® sleeping mats so durable while being environmentally friendly, breathable, soft, and flexible. This leather look-alike is consumer-friendly and safe, unlike older PVC leathers which were full of plasticizers and heavy metal elements like lead. It is vinyl-free and phthalate-free.

Conductive Carbon Pigment: Carbon is the 2nd most abundant element in the human body (after oxygen) and is what conducts the earth's energy. It also makes the mat naturally flame-resistant without needing to add harsh chemicals.

FABRIC BACKING: The sleep mat has a soft fabric backing made from a cotton/polyester blend that is latex-free.

MAT STRAPS: The mat straps do include a latex yarn to ensure a secure fit to your mattress.

OFF-GASSING: Prior to packaging, the mats undergo a thorough off-gassing procedure to ensure a peaceful, grounded rest right out of the box.

CLEANING: The sleep mat may be wiped down using soap and water on a damp cloth or sponge. Don't ever spray with household products like furniture polish or Armor All® which will make the mat lose its conductivity. Air-dry the mat. Never put it in the dryer.

12 month manufacturing warranty - this does not include wear and tear.
