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 overblanket 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 overblanket must not be used by very young children (0-3 years old) as they are unable to respond to overheating.
The heated overblanket 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 overblanket 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 overblanket safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.
Children must not play with the heated overblanket.
Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children unless supervised.
This heated overblanket is not designed for use in hospitals.
This heated overblanket is only intended for domestic/private use, not for commercial use.
Do not insert needles.

Do not use if wet.
Before using it on an adjustable bed, check that the heated overblanket and the cables are not, for example, trapped in a hinge or bunched up.
This heated overblanket may only be used in conjunction with the control specified on the label.
This heated overblanket must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the label.
The electrical and magnetic fields emitted by this heated overblanket may interfere with the function of a acemaker.
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 overblanket.
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 overblanket.
The user must ensure that excess lengths of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.
Please check this heated overblanket frequently for signs of wear and tear or damage. If any such signs are evident, if the heated overblanket 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 overblanket (including the accessories) yourself because faultless functionality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the warranty.
The appliance may not be used with an external timer or a separate remote control.
If the mains connection cable of this heated overblanket is damaged, it must be disposed of. If it cannot be removed, the heated overblanket must be disposed of.

Appliance description

Electric overblanket
Switch

1-person electric overblanket
Dimensions: 180 x 130 cm
Switch with 9 settings
Detachable cord
Machine washable, 30 °C
160 Watt
Material: completely made from fleece

Intended use

CAUTION!
The electric overblanket is only intended for heating the human body.

Operation

Safety

CAUTION!

This heated overblanket is equipped with a SAFETY SYSTEM. This sensor technology prevents the entire surface of the heated overblanket from overheating by automatically switching off the heated overblanket in the event of a fault. If the safety system has switched off the heated overblanket, the temperature setting is not illuminated any more even when the heated overblanket is switched on.
Please note that the heated over blanket 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 over blanket with another control of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch off via the control’s safety system.

Initial use

The electric overblanket can be used as overblanket, plaid or overblanket on the bed.

First connect the switch to the connection point in the blanket by connecting the plug.
Then insert the plug in the socket.

Switching on

Press the ON/OFF button to switch on the blanket. The display switches on. Press the temperature button to set the required heating position from 1 to 9.

Setting the heating position

Position 1: minimum heating – suitable for continuous use
Positions 2-3: gradual heating – suitable for heating up the blanket
Position 4-8: separately adjustable heating
Position 9: maximum heating

CAUTION
If the electric over blanket is used for several hours, we recommend setting the lowest heating position (position 1) to prevent the user from overheating.

Automatic deactivation function

This electric overblanket is switched off automatically after 20 minutes. If you want to use the blanket for a longer period of time, you can extend the deactivation time by up to 3 hours. The deactivation time is indicated in 9 positions with a point – 1. – 2. etc.

Repeatedly press the AUTO OFF button to delay the deactivation time.

Position 1. = 20 minutes – standard setting
Position 2. = 40 minutes
Position 3. = 60 minutes
Position 4. = 80 minutes
Position 5. = 100 minutes
Position 6. = 120 minutes
Position 7. = 140 minutes
Position 8. = 160 minutes
Position 9. = 180 minutes – maximum

When the electric over blanket is switched off, it is no longer heated and the display is off.
The switch on the over blanket again, press the ON/OFF button and set the electric overblanket to the required heating position.

Switching off

Press the ON/OFF button to switch off the blanket. The display no longer lights up.

ATTENTION
If the electric over blanket is not used for a number of days, you must switch it off with the ON/OFF button and remove the plug from the socket. Then disconnect the switch from the electric over blanket by removing the plug.

Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING
Before cleaning the electric over blanket, always remove the plug from the socket. Then disconnect the control from the electric over blanket by removing the plug. Otherwise you will run the 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 over blanket can be removed with a damp cloth or sponge, or if necessary, with a little liquid detergent for delicate laundry.

CAUTION!
The electric over blanket should not be dry cleaned, wrung out, dried in the machine, mangled or ironed. Otherwise the electric over blanket 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 programmer). 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 over blanket to washing lines with washing pegs or similar. Otherwise the electric over blanket may be damaged.
Only reconnect the control to the electric over blanket after the connector and the electric over blanket are completely dry. Otherwise the electric over blanket may be damaged.

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