Instructions and
Warranty on Cool
Bed III
Cool Bed III™
By K&H
Manufacturing
Please read
all precautions
and instructions
before use.
Thank you
for purchasing
the Cool Bed III
by K&H
Manufacturing.
The Cool Bed III
should provide
years of soft,
cool, gel like
sleeping comfort
for your dog.
Please read all
instructions
before using
this product.
Step 1.
Remove the Cool
Bed III from the
box. Locate the
filler cap on
the bed and open
it by grasping
the base of the
cap with one
hand and the tab
of the cap with
the other. Pull
the cap open.
Flatten the Cool
Bed III and let
it sit for a few
minutes to allow
the cool core
interior to
retain its shape
as all air has
been removed for
shipping.
Step 2.
Place the Cool
Bed III in the
intended
location with
the cap side of
the bed up for
filling. Place a
towel under the
filler cap end
of the bed to
absorb any
accidentally
spilled water.
Using a
calibrated
container with a
pour spout,
begin carefully
filling the Cool
Bed III with
cool water. The
bed will take
the following
water
quantities. Keep
in mind, the
more water used,
the more
cushioning and
cooling
capabilities the
bed will have.
You can
experiment for
the optimal feel
of the Cool Bed
III. Ultimately
the recommended
quantity of
water for best
cooling
capabilities is
as follows:
Small Cool
Bed III: 1.85
gallons Medium
Cool Bed III:
3.25 gallons
Large Cool Bed
III: 6.75
gallons
The water in the
Cool Bed III
should be around
15%-20% deeper
than the Cool
Core. What this
means is that
the Cool Bed III
empty is around
1 inch thick.
After filling
and expelling
the air, the bed
should be a
minimum of 1
3/16 inches
thick. This
extra water
circulating
through the Cool
Core’s channels
will provide
incredible
cooling power.
Step 3. Now
that you have
your Cool Bed
III filled,
close the filler
cap and begin to
knead the bed to
help work the
water into the
Cool Core. Now
pull open the
air adjustment
valve and gently
work as much air
out as you can,
using sweeping
motions across
the Cool Bed III
with your hands.
Sweep the air
towards the
valve allowing
the air to expel
from the bed.
Seal the valve
when most of the
air has been
removed. You
will feel how
comfortable the
bed will be at
this point. The
bed should feel
very soft and
spongy and you
should feel
water squishing
around inside
the bed. Now
decide if a
little more
water is
desirable or if
it’s just right
for your pet.
Add water if
necessary,
repeating the
air removal
process. Note: A
little air
inside the bed
will not affect
the cooling
capabilities of
the Cool Bed
III. If you
choose, you may
expel air as
needed though
not necessary.
Step 4. Your
bed is now ready
to be turned
over and used by
your pet. To
turn the bed
over, grasp the
edges of the bed
with both hands
and roll the bed
over. Be careful
as the bed may
be heavy. You
may then grasp
the edges of the
bed to slide it
on the floor for
exact
positioning.
How to empty
your Cool Bed
III: 1) Open the
filler cap.
2) Roll bed
from opposite
end, expelling
water out of the
cap. (much like
rolling a
sleeping bag)
3) Store
with filler cap
open.
How
Does the Cool
Bed III™ work?
Unlike a fluffy
dog bed that is
designed to
retain heat to
keep a dog warm,
the Cool Bed III
is designed to
radiate heat
back into the
air or the floor
surface to keep
a dog cool. The
water-saturated
Cool Core™
inside the Cool
Bed III absorbs
the dog’s
natural body
temperature of
102º Fahrenheit
and coverts it
to room
temperature,
which is
normally well
below the dog’s
body
temperature. The
difference
created between
the room
temperature and
the dog’s body
temperature is
how the Cool Bed
III provides a
cooler,
refreshing
surface for your
dog. Even if it
is 80ºF in your
house, the Cool
Bed III is 22º
cooler than a
dog’s 102º body
temperature. The
Cool Bed III
provides a
permanent,
natural, “cool”
spot for your
dog, inside or
outside in
temperatures
under 95º
Fahrenheit
without
chemicals or
electricity.
Precautions:
*Have your dog’s
nails routinely
trimmed to
prevent
accidental
punctures. *Cool
Bed should be
placed on a
smooth surface
that cannot
cause punctures,
abrasions or
leakage.
*Routinely check
under your Cool
Bed III for
moisture. *The
surface can be
cleaned using a
damp towel or
sponge and mild
dishwashing
detergent. Do
not wash in a
washing machine.
*Never use the
Cool Bed III in
direct sunlight.
Always place in
shade, as direct
sun will warm
the Cool Bed
III. *Always
place the Cool
Bed III out of
the way of foot
traffic. *Never
allow the Cool
Bed III to
freeze. ♦Cool
Bed III is not
intended to be a
life saving
device. *This
product is to be
used in
temperatures
under 95°
Fahrenheit
How to use
your new Cool
Bed III™
The best results
will be obtained
when used in a
shady area. When
using outdoors,
always place the
Cool Bed III in
a shady, cool
spot, as this
will maximize
its heat wicking
abilities. Be
sure not to
place the bed on
sharp objects
that could
puncture the
Cool Bed III.
Keeping the Cool
Bed III indoors
overnight near
air conditioning
will super cool
the bed for
outdoor use the
next morning.
When using
indoors, be sure
to place the
Cool Bed III out
of direct
sunlight. The
cooler the spot
you place the
Cool Bed III,
the better. An
ideal place
would be a cool
tile, linoleum
or concrete
floor. An area
with good air
movement will
also help keep
the bed cooler.
You will soon
figure out the
best location
for your new
Cool Bed III,
and your pet
will love you
for it!
