Use of the blanket

This blanket is intended to be used as an “over-blanket” and therefore should always be placed on top of an individual, not under them or on the top of a bed sheet. It is not to be used as an “under-blanket”.

• Make sure the cord set from the blanket is firmly attached to the blanket itself.

• Insert the plug of the electric blanket (F) into the connector of the electric blanket (G).

• Insert the plug into the socket (220-240 V AC/50 Hz).

• Slide the power switch to position “ON”. The appliance is in standby state. The digital display shows “0” for the temperature setting and “0” for the timer setting.

• Press the button “Temp” to select your desired temperature setting: L (lowest) ­ 1 ­ 2  3 ­ 4 ­ 5 ­ 6 ­ 7 (from low to high). The timer is set at 9 (hours) by default.

• Press the button “Time” to select your desired timer setting: 1 ­ 2 ­ 3 ­ 4 ­ 5 ­ 6 ­ 7 ­8 ­ 9 (hours).

• If needed press the button “High” to set the temperature at the highest level. The
  digital display will show “H” and will automatically change to “L” in 1 hour.

• After use, press the power switch to position “OFF” and unplug the appliance from the mains socket.

Take note: The mains socket must be nearby and accessible.

Note

• Please preheat the appliance before use by setting the temperature to “H” for 30-60 minutes. When using it, please select the appropriate temperature setting according to human body’s feeling.
• If you will go to sleep or use the appliance for a long time, please set the temperature to “L” or “1”.
• To remove the switch, lift the locking tab up with your finger and pull the plug directly out. Do not pull the switch cable and do not try and pull the switch plug out without lifting the locking tab as you will damage the socket.

Attention

• If display is “P”, please check whether the coupler (Fig.1) of the product has been connected firmly or not, then restart it. If the fault cannot be removed, it means the internal connection of the product has problems and it needs to ask help from after sales service.
• If display is “E”, it means the product has internal short circuit and has been broken.
