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 and 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 needles.
Do not use when folded or bunched up.

Before using it on an adjustable bed, check that the heated underblanket 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.
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 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 control of the heated underblanket. 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 underblanket 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 underblanket (including the accessories) yourself because faultless functionality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the guarantee.
If the mains connection cable of this heated underblanket is damaged, it must be disposed of. If it cannot be removed, the heated underblanket 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 covered or placed on the heated underblanket when it is in use.

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’s safety system.

Putting into operation

This heated underblanket must be fixed onto the mattress.

Leave space for the pillow and place the heated underblanket on the mattress with the plug-in connector facing the pillow. Here, the plug-in connector is located on the underside of the heated underblanket.
Stretch all of the elastic straps over the corners of the mattress. All 4 corners of the heated underblanket are then fixed onto the mattress.

CAUTION
Regularly check the position of the heated underblanket on the mattress. The heated underblanket must never be used if it is folded.

After you have fixed the heated underblanket to the mattress, simply put your bed sheet on top as usual so that the heated underblanket is between the mattress and the bed sheet.

CAUTION
Make sure that the heated underblanket is spread out entirely flat and that it will not rumple up or crease when in use.

To operate the heated underblanket connect the control to the heated underblanket by plugging in the connector.
Then plug in the power plug into the mains outlet.

Switching on

To switch on the heated underblanket, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting 1, 2 or 3. The temperature settings are illuminated when switched on.

Setting the temperature

Setting 0: OFF
Setting 1: minimum heat
Setting 2: medium heat
Setting 3: maximum heat

NOTE:

The fastest way to warm up the heatd underblanket is to initially set the highest temperature setting.
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.

Switching off

To switch off the heated under blanket, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the “0” (OFF) position. The temperature settings are then no longer illuminated.

NOTE:
If the heated underblanket is not used for several days, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the “0” (OFF) position and remove the power plug from the socket. Then remove the control from the heated underblanket by disconnecting it at the connector.

Cleaning and care

WARNING
Always remove the power plug from the mains outlet and remove the control from the heated under blanket by disconnecting it at the connector. Otherwise there is a risk of 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.
The textile cover can be cleaned in accordance with the symbols on the label and must be removed from the heating pad prior to cleaning.

CAUTION
Note that the heated underblanket must not be dry-cleaned, wrung out, machine dried or ironed.

The heated underblanket is machine washable.
Set the washing machine to a particularly gentle, 30 °C cycle (woolens programme). Use a mild detergent with dosage according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION
Note that the heated underblanket will suffer from too frequent washing. For its entire life, therefore, the heated underblanket should be washed not more than 5 times in a washing machine.

While the heated underblanket 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 heated underblanket to washing lines with washing pegs or the like. Otherwise the heated underblanket may be damaged.
Only reconnect the control to the heated underblanket after the connector and the heated underblanket are completely dry. Otherwise the heated underblanket may be damaged.

WARNING
Under no circumstances switch on the heated underblanket to dry it. Otherwise there is a risk of an electric shock.

Storage

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

CAUTION

Allow the heated underblanket to cool down before folding. Otherwise the heated underblanket may be damaged.
Do not crease the heated underblanket by placing items on top of it during storage.
