1. LAYING OUT THE HEATTRAK SNOW & ICE MELTING MATS:
• Clear all pre-existing ice and snow from the area where you will be using the
HeatTrak Mats.
• Make sure the surface is free of any sharp objects such as rocks, glass or loose
nails, which could cause damage to the bottom of the mats.
• Lay the mats flat on the surface they are to be used. One side of the mat is smooth
and shiny. The other has a "gritty" texture. Make sure the side with the "gritty" texture
faces up. The mats may not immediately lie flat because of the way they were rolled in
the box. If this is the case, simply flex the mat in the opposite direction of the bend and
place back down. When the mats are turned on, the heat will eventually cause them to
lie flat.
• When laying down the mats, be sure the cables are off to the far side of the
walkway or stair case so no one trips on the cables accidentally.

2. CONNECTING THE MATS TO EACH OTHER:
• The HR model mats are designed with watertight connector
cables so that multiple stair and walkway mats can be
connected together. NOTE: Entrance mats (HDM models) are
designed to be stand-alone mats and do not connect to other
mats. If you purchased an Entrance mat, proceed to Section 4.
• Like Christmas lights, these mats can only be daisy-chained
up to a certain length. This length depends on how many stair
and walkway mats you are connecting together. The best way
to determine how many mats can be connected together is
by adding up the total amps of each mat, which can be found
on the small labels around the male connectors.
• The Power Unit which connects your mats to your outdoor
outlet is designed to safely handle up to 15-amps; however
HeatTrak recommends not exceeding 14-amps.
