Troubleshooting Guide
HEARD A POP AND/OR SMELL SMOKE
- This indicates the fuse in the blanket has blown for safety reasons. Please contact customer service at the number below.
THE BLANKET IS NOT HEATING
- Check for flashing indicators or display at the switch, or Flashing Led on main control box. If flashing skip to next section.
- Make sure the product is not plugged into a power strip or Extension Cord.
- Fold the blanket several times, run for 10 minutes. Feel inside the folds to confirm whether any heat is getting to it. Do not run folded for more than 10 minutes.
- If no heat is getting to the blanket, check to ensure the connection between the controller and blanket is secure.
- If there is a small amount of power getting to the blanket or no heat and the connections are secure, please contact customer service at the number below.
THE SWITCH INDICATORS, DISPLAY OR CONTROLLER Box LED FLASHES.
This indicates that an error has occurred.
- Ensure that the controller(s) cord to the blanket are securely connected to the module on the blanket.
- Make sure that the blanket or throw is not bunched up. This can cause overheating, which can cause a temporary failure. During use, the blanket should always be as flat as possible.
- Feel the wire within the blanket or throw to ensure that the wire is not looped or tangled. If this happens, Un- twist the wire so that it is not tangled. A twisted wire can cause the heat to turn down or the product to completely malfunction.
- Ensure that the controller Box is always placed where it has free air flow around the housing for a blanket, or off the side of the chair for a throw.
It should never be used underneath a blanket, wedged between cushions or have the airflow around it restricted. This can cause the controller to overheat and malfunction.
Once the above steps have been taken, reset the blanket as noted below.
To reset the blanket, follow the following steps.
- Turn off the power switch.
- Unplug the controller power cord from the 120 VAC Wall outlet.
- Check for a secure connection between the controller cord and blanket/Throw connector.
- Plug the controller power cord back into the 120 VAC wall outlet.
- Turn the power back on to see if the error condition still exists.
- If the warming product is a dual control model and only one side indicates the “Error” turn off both control Switches, unplug, then reverse the Cord connections to the opposite side of the warming product. Make a note if the same side still shows an “Error”. This is an indicator of whether it is a controller problem or a problem in the warming product heating circuit.
- After performing the above steps, if the Controller Display still indicates an error condition, turn the controller off and unplug the power cord from the 120 VAC wall outlet. Contact customer service for technical support.
