For this reason, pay attention to these safety notes and include these instructions when handing over the product to others.
This foot warmer must not be used by persons who are not sensitive to heat or by other vulnerable persons who may not be able to react to overheating (e.g. diabetics, people with skin alterations due to illness or scarred tissue in the application area, after taking pain relief medication or alcohol).
This foot warmer must not be used by very young children (0-3 years old) as they are unable to respond to overheating.
This foot warmer can be used by children older than 3 and younger than 8 years of age provided they are supervised. For this, the controller must always be set to the minimum temperature.
This foot warmer may be used by children over the age of 8 and by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental skills or a lack of experience or knowledge, provided that they are supervised and have been instructed on how to use the foot warmer safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

However, they are still well below the limits: electrical field strength: max. 5000 V/m, magnetic field strength: max. 80 A/m, magnetic flux density: max. 0.1 millitesla. Please, therefore, consult your doctor and the manufacturer of your pacemaker before using this foot warmer.

If they are not positioned properly, there may be a risk of becoming entangled in, being strangled by, tripping over, or stepping on the cable and controller of the foot warmer. The user must ensure that the excess length of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.

Under no circumstances should you open or repair the foot warmer (including the accessories) yourself because faultless functionality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the warranty.

prescribed use

CAUTION!
The foot warmer is only intended for warming human feet.

operation

4.1 Safety
CAUTION!

The foot warmer has been provided with a SAFETY SYSTEM. This sensor technology prevents overheating of the foot warmer on the entire surface through automatic deactivation in case of breakdown. When the SAFETY SYSTEM has switched off the foot warmer, the temperature levels in activated condition are no longer lighted.
Do note that for reasons of safety the foot warmer can no longer be used after a breakdown and should be sent to the indicated service address.
Never connect the faulty foot warmer to a different switch of the same type. This would also ensure a final deactivation through the safety system in the switch.

4.2 Use
CAUTION
Make sure the foot warmer does not fold or crumple during use.

Insert the plug in the socket.

4.3 Switching on
Slide the position button for ON/OFF and the heating positions to position 1, 2, or 3 to switch on the foot warmer.
In inactivated conditions, a heating position is lighted – 1, 2, or 3.

4.4 Setting the heating position

Position 1:	minimum heating
Position 2:	medium heating
Position 3:	maximum heating

ATTENTION
The foot warmer heats up the fastest when you first switch on the highest temperature level.

WARNING
If the foot warmer is used for several hours, we recommend setting the lowest heating position (position 1) to prevent the user from overheating.

4.5 Automatic deactivation function
The foot warmer has been provided with an automatic deactivation function. This means that the supply of heat is stopped at approx. 90 minutes after the foot warmer was activated. In order to use the foot warmer again, you must first switch the position button OFF. After approximately 5 seconds you are able to switch the foot warmer on again.

4.6 Switching off
Slide the position button downwards to switch off the foot warmer. The heating position no longer lights up.
ATTENTION
If the foot warmer is not used for a number of days: slide the position button downwards to switch off the foot warmer and remove the plug from the socket.

cleaning & maintenance

WARNING
Before cleaning the foot warmer, always remove the plug from the socket. Otherwise, you will run the risk of an electric shock.
CAUTION!
The switch may never come into contact with water or other liquids. It could get damaged as a result.

Use a dry lint-free cloth for cleaning the switch. Do not use chemical cleaning agents or abrasives.
Small stains on the foot warmer can be removed with a cloth or a damp sponge and, if necessary, a little bit of gentle detergent liquid.

CAUTION!
The foot warmer should not be dry cleaned, spun, dried in the machine, mangled or ironed. It could get damaged as a result.

The removable inner cover can be washed in the washing machine.
Set the washing machine to a 30 °C program (wool wash program). Out of environmental considerations, we recommend washing the inner cover at the same time as other items. Use a gentle detergent in accordance with the manufacturer’s dosing instructions.

WARNING

Never switch on the foot warmer in order to dry it in this way! You will run the risk of an electric shock.
Only start using the foot warmer again when the inner cover and foot warmer have fully dried. Otherwise, you will run the risk of an electric shock.

storing

If you do not use the foot warmer for a longer period of time, we recommend storing it in its original packaging.
CAUTION!

Please allow the foot warmer to cool down first. Otherwise, the foot warmer may be damaged.
