Separated from the heat pad, the cherry stone cover can also
be warmed in the microwave (max. 700 watts, max. 1 minute)

of the cover. Put 1/3 of a cup of water together with the
cover into microwave. Always check the temperature carefully
after heating to avoid the risk of burns.

with the heat pad. Let the cherry stone cover cool down first
(hand-warm) and only then use it as a cover for the heat pad.

Insert the mains plug into the socket and switch on the heat
pad. To do this move the switch on the control unit 1 to
position 1, 2, 3 or 4 as required. The switch clicks into each
position. When the appliance is switched on, the control display

the regulating level, the higher the temperature. To switch
off the unit, move the switch completely back to position 0. If

off. Move the selector switch to position 1 before falling asleep
or any continuous use. The heat pad will switch off automatically
