operation

4.1 Safety
CAUTION

• This heated underblanket is equipped with the INVENTUM SAFETY SYSTEM (ISS). 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’s safety system.

4.2 Initial use

• Spread out the heated underblanket flat onto your mattress starting at the foot end. The electric blanket can be used on both sides.
• To operate the heated underblanket connect the Control to the heated underblanket 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 underblanket is spread out entirely flat and that it will not rumple up or crease when in use. Check its position when making the bed.
4.3 Switching on
Slide the ON/OFF switch sideways to the ON ( I ) position to switch on the electric underblanket.
When switched on, the display lights up and at first displays all the segments for approx. 2 seconds. After that, the following basic settings are displayed:
Temperature setting for body area: 0
Temperature setting for foot area: 0
Automatic switch-off time: 1 h (= 1 hour)
NOTE
The illuminance level drops after approx. 5 seconds so that your sleep is not disturbed during the night.
NOTE
This electric underblanket has a rapid heating function, allowing for faster warming in the first 15 minutes. During this time, “Turbo” flashes on the display.
4.4 Selecting the temperature setting
Press the button (3) to select the temperature setting for the body area.
Press the button (5) to select the temperature setting for the foot area.

NOTE

• Switching sequence of the temperature settings: 0-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-0-9…
• The quickest way to heat up the electric underblanket is to select the highest temperature setting of the control, first.
• We strongly recommend switching on the electric underblanket approx. 30 minutes before going to bed and covering it with the quilt to prevent the warmth from escaping.

CAUTION
If the heated underblanket is used continuously (for several hours) it is recommended to use the lowest setting (1) of the control to avoid the body overheating and thereby any potential burns to the skin or heat stroke.
4.5 Automatic switch-back
NOTE
This electric underblanket features an automatic switch-back for safety purposes. Temperature settings 9, 8 and 7 are automatically switched to temperature setting 6 after 3 hours.

4.6 Selecting the automatic switch-off time

• Press the button to set the automatic switch-off time. You can set the automatic switch-off time as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. or 12 hours.
  NOTE
  Switching sequence of the automatic switch-off time:
  1 h – 12 h – 11 h – 10 h – 9 h etc. 1 h – 12 h – 11 h etc. (time in hours).
  If the time remaining is under an hour it is shown in minutes (e.g. 59 min.)

• The electric underblanket is automatically switched off once the set switch-off time has elapsed. The following is then shown in the display:
  Temperature setting for body area: 0
  Temperature setting for foot area: 0
  Automatic switch-off time: “0 min” flashes

• To switch on the electric underblanket again, press either the button to set the temperature setting of the body area or of the foot area.

• If you do not want to use the electric underblanket beyond the selected switch-off time, slide the ON/OFF switch to the OFF (0) position to switch off the electric underblanket.

4.7 Switching off
Set the ON/OFF slider to the OFF (0) position to switch off the electric underblanket. After switching off the temperature setting is not illuminated anymore.
NOTE
If the electric underblanket won’t be used for several days, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the OFF (0) position and remove the mains plug from the socket.
4.8 ECO control
Temperature settings 1, 2, 3 and 4 are particularly energy-efficient. If these temperature settings have been selected, the “ECO” symbol is shown in the display.
4.9 kWh display
Press the “kWh” button to display the current power consumption in kWh. The power consumed since the last switch-on is displayed.
Due to the low power consumption in the “ECO” temperature settings, the displayed value (power consumption in kWh) takes a while to change. If both zones are set to temperature setting ’9’, it will take approx. 8 minutes for the display to change from 0.00 kWh to 0.01 kWh.
NOTE
A healty sleeping environment can be achieved by keeping the bedroom cool and pre-heating your bed shortly before going to bed. Lower heating costs for the bedroom also create further cost savings.
4.10 Anti-allergy temperature setting
Useful information
In recent years, the number of people allergic to domestic dust has risen sharply. Typical symptoms of this allergy are irritated eyes, sneezing fits, coughing fits and shortness of breath in the early morning. These reactions are triggered by proteins in the excrement of the house dust mite. Mites are almost always present in warm and humid microclimates, as are often found in beds. They feed mainly on human skin scales and mildew and can be found in every house. Even with regular and thorough cleaning, dust and skin cells continuously build up.

• With the anti-allergy temperature setting, you can fight back against the mite population and create a dry, mildew-free bed environment.
• For this, set the body and foot area temperatures to level 9 and the automatic switch-off time to 12 hours. “Anti-Allergy” is shown in the display.
• In order to prevent heat being lost, the electric underblanket must be completely covered by the duvet for this process.
• This process dries out your mattress and thereby creates a hostile microclimate for the mites. We recommend regular use of the anti-allergy temperature setting. Ideally, the electric underblanket should be operated for the full 12 hours.

cleaning & maintenance

WARNING
Always remove the supply plug from the mains outlet and remove the control from the electric underblanket by disconnecting it at the connector. Otherwise there is a risk of an electric shock.
CAUTION
The control must never get in contact to water or other liquids. Otherwise, the control may be damaged.

• To clean the control, use a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents.
• Small marks on the electric underblanket can be removed with a damp cloth or sponge, or if necessary, with a little liquid detergent for delicate laundry.

CAUTION
The electric underblanket should not be dry cleaned, wrung out, dried in the machine, mangled or ironed. Otherwise the electric underblanket could get damaged.

• In case of heavier soiling, this electric blanket can be washed in a washing machine.
• Set the washing machine to a particularly gentle, 30 °C cycle (woolens programme). Use a wool laundry detergent and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION
Note that excessive washing will wear out the electric blanket. For this reason, the electric blanket should only be machine-washed a maximum of 5 times throughout its entire life.

• While the electric blanket is still damp after washing, shape it to its original form and size and place it flat over a clothes drying rack to dry.

CAUTION

• Do not attach the electric underblanket to washing lines with washing pegs or similar. Otherwise the electric underblanket may be damaged.
• Only reconnect the control to the electric underblanket after the connector and the electric underblanket are completely dry. Otherwise the electric underblanket may be damaged.

WARNING
Under no circumstances switch on the electric underblanket to dry it. Otherwise, there is a risk of an electric shock.
Additional information:
The upper side of this electric underblanket (soft cotton side) is finished wit silver particles. This special finishing improves hygiene by reducing the building-up of odeur and bacteria. The underblanket can be washed as described and the finishing will not wash out.

storage

When not in use we recommend to store the electric underblanket in its original packaging. For this purpose, disconnect the control from the electric underblanket by unplugging the plug-in coupling.
CAUTION

• Please allow the electric underblanket to cool down first.
  Otherwise, the electric underblanket may be damaged.

• To avoid sharp folds in the electric underblanket, do not place any objects on top of it while it is being stored.
