WARNING

Non-observance of the following notes may result in personal injury or material damage (electric shock, skin burns, fire). The following safety and hazard information is not only intended to protect your health and the health of others, it should also protect the product. For this reason, pay attention to these safety notes and include these instructions when handing over the product to others.
This heated underblanket 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 heated underblanket must not be used by very young children (0-3 years old) as they are unable to respond to overheating.
This heated underblanket can be used by children older than 3 and younger than 8 years of age provided they are supervised. For this, the control must always be set to the minimum temperature.
This heated underblanket 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 or have been instructed on how to use the heated underblanket safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.
Children must not play with the heated underblanket.
Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children unless supervised.
This heated underblanket is not designed for use in hospitals.
This heated underblanket is only intended for domestic/private use, not for commercial use.
Do not insert pins.
Do not use when folded or bunched up.
Do not use if wet.
Before using it on an adjustable bed, check that the heated underblan-ket and the cables are not, for example, trapped in a hinge or bunched up.
This heated underblanket may only be used in conjunction with the control specified on the label.
This heated underblanket must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the label.
If the heated underblanket is being used over several hours, we re-commend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the control to avoid the body overheating and thereby any potential burns to the skin or heat stroke.
The electrical and magnetic fields emitted by this heated underblanket may interfere with the function of a pacemaker. 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 heated underblanket.
Do not pull, twist or make sharp bends in the cables.
If the cable and control of the heated underblanket are not positioned properly, there may be a risk of becoming entangled in, being strangled by, tripping over, or stepping on the cable and control. The user must ensure that excess lengths of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.
Please check this heated underblanket frequently for signs of wear and tear or damage. If any such signs are evident, if the heated under-blanket has been used incorrectly or if it no longer heats up, it must be checked by the manufacturer before being switched on again.
Under no circumstances should you open or repair the heated under-blanket (including the accessories) yourself because faultless function-ality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the warranty.
If the mains connection cable of this heated underblanket is damaged, it must be disposed of. If it cannot be removed, the heated underblan-ket must be disposed of.
Do not expose control and cables to direct sunlight.
When this heated underblanket is switched on:
- Do not place any sharp objects on it
- Do not place any heat sources, such as hot water bottles, heat pads or similar, on it
The electronic components in the control warm up when the heated underblanket is in use. For this reason, the control must never be cov-ered or placed on the heated underblanket when it is in use.
Allow the heated underblanket to cool down before storing it away. Otherwise the heated underblanket may get damaged.
To avoid severe creasing in the heated underblanket, do not place any objects on top of it while it is being stored. Otherwise material damage may occur.
It is essential to observe the information relating to the following chap-ters: Operation, Cleaning and maintenance, Storage.
If you should have any questions about using our devices, please contact our Customer Services department.

Intended use

CAUTION
This heated underblanket is designed for warming beds, only.

Operation

Safety
CAUTION

This heated underblanket is equipped with a SAFETY SYSTEM. This sensor technology prevents the entire surface of the heated underblanket from overheating by automatically switching off the heated underblanket in the event of a fault. If the safety system has switched off the heated underblanket, the temperature setting is not illuminated any more even when the heated underblanket is switched on.
Please note that the heated underblanket is not operable any more due to safety reasons in this case and has to be sent to the service address indicated.
Do not connect the defective heated underblanket with another control of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch-off via the control safety system.

Initial use

Spread out the heated underblanket flat onto your mattress starting at the foot end.
To operate the heated underblanket connect the control to the heated under- blanket by plugging in the connector.
Then plug in the supply plug into the mains outlet.
Then put on your bedsheet in the usual manner so that the heated underblanket is between your mattress and the bedsheet
- CAUTION
  Make sure that the heated underblanket is spread out entirely flat and that it will not rumple up or crease when in use.
- NOTE:
  Lie in comfort
  If the plug-in connector at shoulder level bothers you, you can rotate the electric underblanket by 180° so that the plug-in connector lies at the foot of the bed (see illustra-tion). So that the switch is within comfortable reach of your hand, Beurer offers a switch with a longer connection cable (Item no. 108.963). This is available directly from Beurer Customer Services.

Switching on
Set the ON/OFF slider (4) to the ON (I) position to switch on the heated underblanket (see Fig. switch). The temperature settings will then light up.

Selecting the temperature setting
To increase the temperature, press the button (6). To decrease the temperature, press the button (7). After switching on the temperature setting is illuminated.

Setting 0: OFF
Setting 1: minimum heat
Setting 2- 3: Individual heat
Setting 4: maximum heat
- NOTE:
- The quickest way to heat up the heated underblanket is to select the highest temperature setting of the control, first.
- We strongly recommend switching on the heated underblanket approx. 30 minutes before going to bed and covering it with the quilt to prevent the warmth from escaping.
- WARNING
  If the heated underblanket is being used over several hours, we recommend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the control to avoid the body overheating and thereby any potential burns to the skin or heat stroke.

Automatic switch-back
NOTE:
This heated underblanket features an automatic switch-back for safety purposes. Temperature settings 4 and 3 are automatically switched to temperature setting 2 after 3 hours.

Automatic switch-off
This heated underblanket is equipped with an automatic switch-off. This turns off the heat supply 12 hours after the heated underblanket is first switched on. This is indicated by a flashing temperature setting. In order to reactivate the heated underblanket, the sliding switch (4) must initially be set to off (“0” position). After about 5 seconds it is possible to switch it on again. If the heated underblanket will not be used after timed switch-off, it should be switched off (sliding switch to position “0”) and the mains plug removed from the mains socket.

Switching off
Set the ON/OFF slider (4) to the OFF (0) position to switch off the heated underblanket. After switching off the temperature setting is not illuminated any more.
NOTE:
If the heated underblanket won’t be used for several days, switch it off (Slider to setting „0“/OFF) and remove the supply plug from the mains outlet

Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING
Always remove the supply plug from the mains outlet and remove the control from the heated underblanket by disconnecting it at the connector. Otherwise there is a risk of an electric shock.
